Robotic palletizing technology can help with productivity and profitability. The robotic workcells can be integrated towards any project. The savings of using a robot for longer hours without fatigue is always a consideration for warehouse managers. Robotics have become more affordable in recent years and can be paid off in just a few years worth of work.
A robotic palletizing system allows more flexibility to run more products for longer periods of time. With the advancements in End of Arm Tooling, robot palletizing workcells have been integrated in many warehouses.
Examples of Robotic Palletizing Multi-Line Palletizing Systems
A Robot at work
Multi-Line Palletizing Systems reduce the space required by conventional palletizing systems. These robotic systems can be fitted with a shuttle car to efficiently combine the unit loads from multiple infeed lines into one discharge stretch wrapper.
2 in – 1 out system
3 in – 1 out system
Single Line Palletizing Systems
A system that provides automation of end-of-line palletizing with small footprint palletizers. Integrated with either manual or automatic pallet handling, these efficient systems will improve the throughput and consistency of the palletizing operations.
Compact footprint with over under conveyor –
Allows a fork truck to drop off an empty pallet and then pick up a full unit load.
Wide working envelopes with small footprints allow for a less bulky system with a reduced interference area.
This single line solution combines an automatic plastic strapping station to stabilize the unit load for shipping.
Bag Palletizing Systems These systems reduce the risk of back injuries associated with manual bag palletizing of industrial sized bags of product such as grain, feed, chemical, building supply, and many other material types.
