Unknown - Crate Packing Table

• Used in food processing lines for manual packing of finished products into crates.
• Suitable for bakeries, dairies, and meat processing facilities requiring an ergonomic packing station.
• Utilised in fruit and vegetable packing houses for sorting and crating produce.
• Applicable in logistics and distribution centres for small-scale order fulfilment involving crated goods.

Typical footprint

For this class of equipment, dimensions commonly range from 1000mm to 2000mm in length and 600mm to 900mm in width, with a working height of around 850mm to 950mm.

Construction material

Units of this type are typically constructed from food-grade stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316) for hygiene and durability.

Power supply

A crate packing table with a sliding top mechanism may require a single-phase electrical supply, commonly 230V, for any powered components. Manual versions require no electrical power.

Throughput

Throughput is primarily dependent on operator efficiency; however, the design can facilitate a steady flow of crates and products.

Maintenance requirements

Maintenance typically involves routine cleaning and inspection of moving parts, such as the sliding mechanism, to ensure smooth operation.

Weight capacity

The table surface and sliding mechanism are typically designed to support multiple full crates, commonly up to 100-200 kg distributed load.

• What are the benefits of a sliding top on a packing table?

  A sliding top can improve ergonomic access for operators, allowing them to position items more easily or move packed crates without lifting, reducing strain and increasing efficiency.

• Is this type of table suitable for wet environments?

• Can this table be integrated into an existing production line?

• What type of crates can be used with this table?

• Are there any specific safety features to consider?

Food processing work tables are valued for durability and hygiene compliance. Buyers typically prioritize stainless steel construction, which resists corrosion and withstands frequent cleaning. When purchasing used equipment, inspecting surface condition for damage or staining is essential, along with verifying stability of legs and joints. Industry sentiment reflects appreciation for robust build quality and ease of maintenance. Second-hand units often represent strong value, provided they meet food safety standards and structural integrity remains sound.
