Steelhead Robotic Rack Loaders

Steelhead’s Robotic Rack Loader is a full-line automation solution that loads empty bottles onto the washer infeed and unloads full, capped bottles to delivery racks — all without operator intervention. The system integrates directly with Steelhead Ultra bottling lines, synchronizing speed and cadence to the line’s throughput. Pair with the Robotic Rack Loaders Only variant when your operation retains manual unload.

“Steelhead was by far the most responsive vendor to our initial inquiry when we started the process of getting our bottling plant up and running. They listened to my needs and came up with a proposal to fit my operation and budget. David came in for a personal presentation and once the sale was completed, the support continued throughout the entire process.”
