What difficulties need to be overcome in the development of the domestic palletizer market

Under the premise of favorable policies, China's stacker industry will enter an accelerated development stage. However, there is a significant gap between China's stacker industry and developed countries in terms of variety, quality, new product research and development capabilities, and economic benefits. Some high-end markets are still monopolized by developed countries such as Europe, America, and Japan. At present, the domestic palletizing industry mainly has problems such as small enterprise scale, low-level repeated construction, low industrial concentration ratio, low technology content, unreasonable product structure, insufficient innovation ability, etc. The way forward of the industry is still difficult.

The application status of palletizing machines has been developing since the 1960s in industrialized countries such as Germany, Italy, and Japan. Semi-automatic and fully automatic palletizing machines have been successively developed, and later improvements and improvements have been made in terms of structure and model. It has been about 20 years since the development of domestic palletizing machines began in the 1980s. So far, there has been significant development and improvement in various aspects such as the types, specifications, equipment performance, and product quality of palletizing machines produced in China. In many aspects, they have gradually approached or reached the technical performance and various parameters of similar palletizing machines abroad, and can basically meet the needs of large and medium-sized enterprises for product packaging and palletizing. However, compared with the advanced level of foreign countries, there is still a certain gap, and the main problem is:

Low processing quality of components

The processing of mechanical components for domestic palletizing machines is currently in the single piece production stage, and there is still a certain gap in processing accuracy and quality compared to similar foreign products. Therefore, after production, there is a large amount of maintenance workload and a short service life, especially for key components with frequent movements, and there is a lack of specialized equipment for batch processing and production conditions. For example, in the processing and manufacturing of air cushion discs, relatively simple processing methods and methods are still used. Therefore, after production, some air cushion discs have insufficient airtightness and may experience air leakage, resulting in a large maintenance workload.

The performance of the main components of the control system is not yet up to standard

At present, the domestically produced control system components used for palletizing machines still have a certain gap in performance and service life compared to advanced foreign components. Some may have inaccurate positioning, resulting in operational failure; Therefore, there is a significant amount of maintenance and replacement work during the production process.

Low stacking efficiency

The stacking capacity of a general stacker is basically maintained at around 20 tons per hour, which can still meet the requirements of normal and stable production; To achieve a production capacity of over 30 tons/hour, further improvements and enhancements are needed. Looking at the design, manufacturing, and production usage of domestic stackers, their development prospects are very promising. Especially at present, there are a number of units specialized in the research of palletizing machines in China, which have accumulated a certain amount of production and usage experience, laying a good foundation for the development, improvement, and improvement of the production technology level of palletizing machines. Therefore, the development of domestic palletizing machines has many favorable conditions. In addition, under the current situation, leaders at all levels attach great importance to the localization work. Therefore, achieving the localization of stacker cranes in the near future has become the trend and popular aspiration. It is expected that in the next 3-5 years, it is fully possible to adopt domestically produced palletizing. Contact Shuhe Machinery.
