SAMZON has through the years developed and constructed innovative pallet changer machines for various industries. SAMZON Pallet changer is a stationary machine used for exchanging pallets without manual handing.
The only manual work you can expect with one of these machines, is the removal of the old pallet and insertion of the new one, which we recommend is done using a forklift or pallet truck.
Press a button on the control panel to start the pallet changer and change the pallet. Pallet changing made easy.

The pallet changer machine is the preferred choice when you wish to avoid the unnecessary strain of lifting pallets manually. Pallets are changed at floor-level using a forklift or pallet truck.
Manual pallet lifts are removed from your company’s work environment, resulting in fewer work-related injuries and happier employees.
The advantage of using a pallet changer is that you avoid all manual handling of products and pallets when performing a pallet change. The product also remains in the same place on the new pallet as it was before the change.
This machine can change approximately 30 pallets an hour and can handle a large variety of products.
The pallet changer can work with manual stage control using buttons, automatic cycles, automatic pallet placement, and an in-line fully automatic assembly line part including a pallet magazine that allows for automatic pallet management.
The in-line solution offers a large amount of tailored, customer-specific solutions to meet your exact needs.
The SAMZON pallet changer machine tips the products on their original pallet 120-degrees and lowers the original pallet down to the floor. The pallet is exchanged with a new pallet and the new pallet is lifted back up and secured under the products. Lastly, pallet and products are once again lowered down to floor-level, ending the pallet changer cycle.
The SAMZON Pallet-Inverter machine works in a slightly different way compared to the pallet changer. Using the pallet-Inverter, the product is rotated 180-degrees on the original pallet, thereby being turned on its head. Then, the pallet is manually removed from the machine and replaced with a new pallet.
This machine takes slightly longer to complete a pallet exchange cycle and does require that the product can sustain being turned around.
However, the advantage with the pallet-Inverter is that it can be stopped at 90-degrees, allowing the platforms to separate ever so slightly. You can now remove cardboard, paper, or freezer spacers that may be lying in between the products.
The machine comes with both manual control or automatic cycle.
There are lots of options for additional equipment when you order a pile-turner. See below for a selection of our most popular extra equipment including a description of each option.
The advantage in using an automated cycle is that you ensure that the operator only must press the start button on the control panel – the machine the runs through the entire sequence automatically.
This gives the operator time to handle pallets or other tasks in between sequences.
To use the automatic cycle, safety measures are required to ensure personnel cannot get under the machine during a cycle. Safety measures include safety fence and safety light barriers.
We often see that a galvanised surface is chosen for machines in the medico and food industries where products might get in contact with the machine.
It may also be an advantage is the pallet changer is intended to run in moist conditions.
This is a recommended choice if there are no alternative ways of supplying the machine with air.
We attach a small “low-noise” compressor to the pallet changer.
Choosing the external start option, allows the operator to activate the machine using a pull string or external button. This may for instance allow the operator to activate the machine while sitting in their forklift or other vehicles.
It is possible to add safety or warning lights to the pallet changer, which by using various colours will indicate whether the machine is running, has experienced stoppage or needs servicing.
A package with spare parts is often chosen to ensure you have the most necessary spare parts in stock in case of stoppage, allowing for decreased maintenance time.
Stoppage and downtime on machines can be costly because a part of the production chain is broken, leading to loss of income.
A service agreement on your equipment is therefore important to ensure the optimal amount of runtime.
A good service agreement includes no added costs, but helps you save on expenses.
SAMZON A/S offers service and maintenance on your machines and equipment, and as part of your service agreement you always receive:
