QS-1200 Automatic Board Feeder

QS-1200 Automatic Pallet Feeder

Product Overview

The QS-1200 automatic pallet feeder is an automated pallet-supplying device specially designed by Qisheng Machinery to complement brick-making production lines. Its core function is to automatically and steadily deliver neatly stacked empty pallets into the pallet storage bin according to the production rhythm of the brick-making main machine, thereby ensuring continuous and efficient operation of the entire production line. This equipment adopts a combined mode of PLC intelligent control and hydraulic drive, achieving automated operations in the pallet-loading process. It can effectively replace manual pallet-loading tasks, significantly reducing workers’ labor intensity while saving labor costs and enhancing the overall automation level of the brick-making production line.

Core Working Principle

The QS-1200 automatic pallet feeder relies on a PLC intelligent control system to precisely regulate its operating logic, coupled with a hydraulic drive unit that provides stable power output, enabling the automatic conveyance of empty pallets. The equipment can automatically identify the demand of the pallet storage bin based on the production rhythm of the brick-making main machine, orderly delivering stacked empty pallets into the bin without any manual intervention. The PLC control system accurately manages the speed and positioning of pallet delivery, ensuring precise placement and preventing issues such as jammed or damaged pallets. Meanwhile, the hydraulic drive supplies steady and sufficient power, guaranteeing smooth and stable operation throughout the process. It seamlessly interfaces with various block-molding machines, forming a complete automated production workflow.
