CONVEYOR SYSTEMS
Conveyors are the workhorses of manufacturing and warehouse operations. A poorly designed conveyor system can be the difference between lean, efficient operations and constant stoppages, downtime, product contamination, and damage.
Australis Engineering
has been manufacturing conveyors in Australia since 1983. The company’s smart conveyor designs are proven and trusted by some of the world’s biggest manufacturing
companies. Australis offers
conveyor options for food and beverages, medtech, warehouses, pallets, wet, explosive or cold environments. The company is an expert at complex conveyor outcomes such as hygiene,
single filing, diverting, inclining, accumulating, and laydowns. Its range includes belt, roller, slat, and pallet conveyors. Using standard designs, Australis locally manufactures custom- ised conveyors that integrate with your existing equipment, fit your floorspace, product requirements and budget. Whether it’s a single conveyor or a fully automated conveying system, Australis’ smart conveyors will result in process and production improvements.
SIMPAL ROBOTIC PALLETISING SYSTEM
For companies exploring ways to introduce automation, a palletiser is a great option to help increase productivity while lowering input costs. Robotic palletisers are a standard industry solution, but, they have traditionally required high initial investment and high ongoing programming costs. They need programming every time a new product, package size, or pallet configuration is required or as the business grows.
Enter the simPAL Palletising System by Australis Engineering. The simPAL system easily palletises cartons, bags, drums, and more. Key to simPAL is the integrated palletising simulation software and the smart, pre-engineered modular equipment tiles. Australis developed simPAL software to allow users to reconfigure their product type, dimensions and pallet configuration without external assistance. Australis designed a modular equipment solution based on 10 pre- engineered tiles for the robot, conveyors, pallet stackers, wrapper, and other options. The elegance of this system is that it easily permits the whole palletising cell to be reconfigured or expanded quickly and without complex programming. simPAL makes your palletising future proof.
Need further versatility? simPAL Robotic Palletisers are available with either a traditional robot with 110kg to 450kg capacity or a simPAL Mini Cobot Palletiser with 12kg capacity onto a standard 1165mm pallet.

HYGENIUS ULTRA CLEAN CONVEYOR
For the ultimate in hygienic conveying, Australis Engineering’s Hygenius Conveyor system offers the highest standard of cleanliness to minimise surfaces where bacteria accumulate and creates a conveyor that is fast and simple to comprehensively clean.
The Hygenius ultra clean conveyor can be disassembled and reassembled in less than two minutes to allow a thorough washdown and deep clean of the entire frame, rollers, belt, and motor. Other washdown conveyors can take 40 minutes just to prep for cleaning, substantially increasing downtime and lost production and risking incomplete bacterial removal. This can compromise food safety and therefore brand reputation.
Hygenius is not simply another washdown conveyor. Its new and innovative approach uses hygienic design principles and approved conveyor components certified by the European Hygienic Engineering Design Group. This fundamentally changes
