Design and Technology

The Easy Stacker delivers efficient and flexible performance. Its compact, lightweight beam structure allows easy integration into new or existing lines. The robust linear guiding and timing belt technology ensures high acceleration and precise positioning across all axes. Equipped with up to four vacuum grippers and servo motors, the Easy Stacker can handle boards up to 4500 mm in length, 100 mm in thickness, and 150 kg per layer, achieving up to 10 cycles per minute.

The system’s ExtruGrip foam grippers are up to 30% more efficient and faster than conventional grippers. Its integrated pick/release module and modular design make it adaptable to a variety of board dimensions and handling requirements, while also reducing maintenance needs thanks to a filter-free gripper design.

Performance and Efficiency

Joulin’s Easy Stacker is ideal for both stacking and de-stacking operations. It handles all species of wood, whether green or dry, and is resistant to sawdust, ensuring consistent performance in demanding environments. The combination of lightweight construction, high-speed servo control, and advanced vacuum technology delivers a system that maximises throughput while minimising operational disruptions.

Customisation and Support

Every facility has unique requirements, and the Easy Stacker can be tailored to meet your specific needs. Custom configurations can be designed for different board sizes, handling requirements, or production rates, ensuring the system integrates seamlessly into your operations.

With manufacturing and design facilities in France and the USA, Joulin provides local support and rapid access to spare parts and service, giving Australian manufacturers confidence in both performance and long-term reliability.
