Case Study: Martin Limestone achieves reduced labor costs, increased safety, and improved pallet quality with Westfalia Tech. Inc.'s KUKA Palletizing System

Martin Limestone - Customer Case Study

Martin Limestone, a supplier of pulverized agricultural limestone, crushed limestone and white quartzite sand operating in Gap, Pa., needed an automated palletizing solution for its discharge line. Westfalia Tech. Inc. installed a KUKA Palletizing System at the facility — centered on a KR-180 KUKA robotic palletizer — with infeed conveyors, a pallet dispenser, slipsheet dispenser, pallet conveyor system and a Wulftec stretchwrapping system to handle product flow and the 40" rise at the discharge end.

Westfalia Tech. Inc. engineered the layout to fit the elevation constraint and the customer’s budget, delivering a turnkey palletizing line that reduced labor costs, increased employee safety and improved overall pallet quality. The integrated KUKA palletizer plus conveyors and dispensers streamlined material handling and wrapping, providing measurable operational benefits in cost, safety and finished-pallet consistency.
