ABSTRACT:
A compact, programmable palletizer and method for forming at least one layer of packages on a pallet, comprising a rigid frame, an infeed conveyor positioned adjacent the frame for conveying successive packages into the palletizer, and a rollerbed assembly mounted on the frame and positioned juxtaposed the infeed conveyor for receiving successive packages from the infeed conveyor. The rollerbed assembly is formed on a single horizontal plane and is movable between an advanced position and a retracted position. The palletizer further includes a fixed back stop positioned adjacent the rollerbed assembly and rigidly connected to the frame for preventing the packages conveyed onto the rollerbed assembly from moving beyond a predetermined position thereon, and a sweeper arranged adjacent the rollerbed assembly and the fixed back stop for positioning the package in a predetermined position on the rollerbed assembly by rotating, displacing and squaring the package thereon.
