DEPALLETIZER DPL-500

Automated depalletizer with pallet staging | continuous flow can depal | mid-volume beverage packaging line

If your operation requires more features than our DPL-250, this is answer. It runs everything the DPL-250 does and adds a meaningful layer of automation that reduces how much your operators have to interact with the front end. A pallet staging area keeps the next full pallet ready to go, automated infeed loads it when the current one runs out, and empty pallets discharge on their own. Full layer sweeps feed into a mass-accumulation conveyor before single-filing into the line, keeping flow smooth and consistent at up to 500 CPM. The same enclosed-chain counterbalance lift keeps mechanical components out of the product path, and VFD-controlled drives let you tune speed to match your line.

Up to 500 CPM

Highly Configurable

Nearly any beverage container

More automation than the DPL-250, without jumping to a DPL-1000. The DPL-500 stages your next pallet, loads it automatically, and clears empties on its own so your operators can focus elsewhere. Runs up to 500 CPM with smooth mass conveyor flow into a single filer.

PRODUCT FEATURES

Enclosed-Chain Counterbalance Lift

No overhead grease drip points above open cans. The lift mechanism is fully enclosed, keeping contamination risks out of the product path where they don't belong.

Automated Pallet Staging and Infeed

A staging area holds the next full pallet and loads it automatically when the current one runs out. Less time standing at the depal, more time running the rest of the line.

Mass Conveyor to Single Filer

Full layer sweeps land on a mass-accumulation belt before transitioning to single file. That buffer keeps flow steady and prevents jams at the handoff point.

Automated Empty Pallet Discharge

Empty pallets clear without operator handling. It's one less thing your team has to manage during a run.

High-Throughput Automation

Pallet Staging Area — Holds a full pallet to maintain continuous flow without reloading.

Automated Pallet Infeed — Automatically loads the next staged pallet when the current one is emptied.

Automated Empty Pallet Discharge — Clears empty pallets without operator handling.

Full Top-Layer Sweep — Sweeps an entire layer onto the mass conveyor (required for high-speed applications).

Mass Conveyor Discharge — Transfers layers onto a mass-accumulation belt before single-filing for high-speed lines.

Increased Slip Sheet Accumulation — Stacks slip sheets for organized return to the can maker.

Core CODI Depalletizer Engineering

Chain Lift System — Enclosed, counterbalanced lift for clean, reliable layer transfer.

Side-Driven Sweep — Locking hardware keeps cans stable and protected during the sweep motion.

Slip Sheet Removal — Integrated mechanism eliminates manual removal and speeds throughput.

Single Filer Conveyor — Smooth, consistent transition from mass flow to single file.

Flexible Configurations

Multiple Models & Heights — Available in various configurations to match line layout and can-handling needs.

Operator-Focused Design

Large Touchscreen Controls — Enhanced visibility and ease of use for high-speed environments.

Clean, Intuitive HMI — Simple interface for quick setup, monitoring, and adjustments.

Carbon Steel Frame — Durable three-sided enclosure for operator safety and easy maintenance access.

VFD-Controlled Drives — Variable speed control for optimized performance and energy efficiency.
