- Fast cycle time
- Full packaging automation
- Easy type changeover
The customer asked for our help in the packaging and palletising of the products. Until now, the packaging was done manually by 6-8 people, moving several tons per day.
Our system needed to be integrated with the existing line, as the products were arriving on it. As the cycle time was very short, the handling was done by two robots.
The two robots made a pallet of 7-8 products and then this pallet was strapped and finally a large palletising robot did the palletising. The pallets were fed to the checker by a feeder with a capacity of 15 pallets and from there to the rotating pick-up table.
Once the palletising robot had filled a pallet, the pallet was shrink wrapped on a chain conveyor by an automatic device and then labelled for identification. The finished pallet, already wrapped, was then taken through a sluice gate to the outside of the plant, where it was removed by forklift.
