Robotiq palletizing solutions: Efficient automation for various industries

Robotiq offers an innovative palletizing solution that has been specially developed for use in various industries such as food, pharmaceuticals and consumer goods. This solution is based on the lightweight robot from Universal Robots and includes both the hardware and the software that controls the entire palletizing process. The use of these robots enables companies to automate the manual palletizing process, saving them time and increasing the efficiency of their production processes.

Flexibility and adaptability of the palletizing solution

The Robotiq palletizing solution is characterized by its high flexibility, which enables users to efficiently palletize both closed cartons and open crates. A central component of this solution is the so-called "end of arm tooling", which includes different gripping tools, such as vacuum grippers or mechanical grippers, depending on the requirements. These tools are specially designed to handle a wide variety of packaging safely and precisely, regardless of whether it is a standardized or customer-specific application.

Simple operation and fast integration

Another advantage of the Robotiq palletizing solution is its user-friendliness. The user only has to follow three steps: Defining the carton size and weight, selecting the pallet size and defining the palletizing scheme. These settings can be made and saved within one to two minutes, making it much easier to set up and reuse the programs. Installation and training at the customer's premises usually takes place within two to three days, which enables rapid integration into existing production lines. With over 500 palletizing systems installed worldwide, Robotiq's solution has proven to be reliable and effective. The systems are capable of handling loads of up to 35 kilograms, depending on the customer's specific requirements. The cost of implementation varies, starting from 75,000 to 130,000 euros, depending on the individual needs and the amount of equipment to be installed. These palletizing solutions offer companies the opportunity to automate their production processes and thus increase efficiency while reducing the workload of employees.
