Robotic Palletizers for Ice Bags

Looking for a way to increase your line’s capacity? If you are turning away business or slowing down your operation due to limited palletizing capacity, IcePal robotic ice bag palletizers are your solution - they can stack 96 pallets in an 8-hour shift with none of the problems associated with hand stacking.

Stretch Wrap Option

IcePal's Outperform Hand Stacking by 300%

IcePal palletizers can stack over 20 bags a minute versus 6 to 8 for a typical employee.  Plus, they...

Always show up and rarely need a break

Do not mind the cold conditions

Never get tired or slow down

Run at optimum so there is no bottlenecking

Create very tightly packed, tamped down pallet

Do not have trouble with tall pallets
