Palletizers from Sentry includes models for convention cases, right angle cases, bulk packaging, in addition to robotic case palletizers. Sentry also offers the Hybrid Case Palletizer, designed to orient, arrange and place layers of finished goods (trays, shells, packs or cases) onto a pre-staged pallet for transportation to the end user. Hybrid technology is a combination of conventional and robotic handling practices. A case routing zone replaces need for a case switch and pneumatic case diverters. A multi-axis SCARA servo positioner (one or two depending on the line speed), automatically tracks, turns, and redirects the product to its intended lane.

Sentry supplies bulk depalletizers in high and low-level configurations. The Sentry bulk depalletizer is designed to receive bulk loads of empty glass, PET, or aluminum containers on wooden or plastic pallets, and transfer each layer (one at a time) onto an accumulating take-away conveyor for transportation to the production area. It is designed to provide a continuous supply of product to PET bottle fillers at speeds up to 1000 bottles per minute and can fillers up to 2200 cans per minute.
