A jaw palletizer for the graphics industry with a framework (2) supporting runways (3) on which there is a movable trolley (4) supporting a jaw (5) for conveying bundles (6) with the aid of a single column (10). This exhibits opposed sections (11) with twin surface guides (11a) for slide wheels (12) and a rack (13) engaging a pinion (14) actuated by a geared motor (16) supported on the trolley (4). The jaw (5) is affixed to the column (10) by means of a support pin (29), which allows them free reciprocating travel over a short distance. Through a through shaft (33) in the column (10), the jaw (5) can be rotated in its own horizontal plane. The gripping discs are mounted on a self-positioning slide (39) which signals, via a microswitch, the impact of the bundle (6). This can also be achieved with the use of a slide component that is interposed between the jaw-holding column (10) and the jaw (5) itself.
