Hello - I wanted to reach to fellow Pkg. Engineers to find someone with experience with Large Bulk Powder Protein Ingredients, packaged in:
Multiwall 50 # Kraft Paper with inner 2.0 mil LDPE liner inside. Packed in 3 x 2 format on the Pallet Layer x 10- HI per Pallet = 50 Bags per pallet. Generally packed in both: 10 kg (11 lbs.) & 20 kg (44 lbs.) size bulk bags. Currently only using thin fiber board pad, believe is coated for moisture barrier. Rotate 3x2 format, every other layer.
Having issues with overhang on the pallet, as the auto-palletizer is Push-style, not Robotic, pick-up style. Any suggestions or experience to improve the pallet layout for transit? Planning to Trial different pallet patterns, add corr. pads between layers, or every couple of layers at this point. Not sure if our current Push style palletizer will even allow us to add corr. slip sheets or to change the pallet pattern at this time. Any suggestions or ideas would be helpful.
Also, are there Pkg. alternatives out there to replace our current Multiwall Paper Bags with the 2.0 mil LDPE liners? Looking for alternate ideas, pkg. materials and suppliers that could suggest any alternate materials for Trials.
Thanks for your help. My signature is attached below if you'd like to chat as well.
