Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of automated production of food and beverages, and in particular to a food and beverage conveying and palletizing production line and a palletizing method thereof. Background Art

[0002] In the automated food and beverage production sector, conveyor and palletizing lines are crucial for efficient packaging. Traditional production lines generally utilize linear conveyors coupled with end-of-line palletizing robots, which present significant drawbacks. Sorting relies on manual intervention, requiring operators to manually sort lanes when materials vary significantly in size, resulting in low efficiency and prone to errors. Material movement during transport can be caused by collisions, but existing equipment lacks mid-transfer correction mechanisms, leading to material jamming during transfers or misaligned positioning by the end-of-line robot. Material transfer between conveyors relies on gravity or simple pallet pushes, resulting in uneven transitions and high breakage rates, particularly for fragile packaging such as glass bottles and soft plastic boxes. Pallet supply systems lack intelligent functionality, often requiring manual placement or linear conveying, making them difficult to adapt to multiple palletizing stations and requiring a large equipment footprint. Some improvements have attempted to incorporate visual recognition or material stoppers, but vision systems are primarily used for end-of-line quality inspection rather than mid-transit sorting. Material stoppers are often fixed to the end of the conveyor and lack batch control, making them ineffective in addressing material congestion. Furthermore, existing technologies lack a mature solution for dynamic rotational correction of material position during transport. Summary of the Invention
