Automated Stacking for LVL Beams, and I-Joists
SWEED’s Automated I-Joist and Beam Stacking System integrates with existing conveying and packaging equipment to automatically build uniform four-high stacks for forklift pickup and transport to storage.
By automating a stacking process often performed using forklifts or overhead cranes, SWEED can help manufacturers reduce labor and forklift use while maintaining efficient product flow from packaging through finished stacking.
