Depalletizing cans increases throughput and eliminates labor from the packaging floor which is a great way to free up employees to be useful elsewhere in the brewery. When deciding on a Craft Can Depalletizer, all-around functionality, integrated safety features, and standard design should be considered when looking at these machines.

Start by looking at the standard design of the equipment. Basic features to look for include an easy to use interface, safety minded design features, filler to depalletizer communication, and proper hardware use above open cans. Choosing a supplier that engineers features like these into the design of the machine is important to good production and general workplace safety.

The functionality of a can depalletizer is critical to productive packaging runs.

As the end user you are responsible safety within your facility in the USA and not having integrated safety to stop the hoist only exposes you to a lost time accident.

Other items to consider would be how far away the depalletizer is from the filler. Does the manufacturer also design conveyance to work seamlessly with the depalletizer? Line integration problems can plague an owner for the life of the canning system. Solving these sort of issues up front will be beneficial in the long run.
