ROBOTIC CASE PACKER
Robotic Case Packing systems are the perfect solution for packaging operations, from single robots to multiple robots and single pick to multiple pick, robots can be designed to meet different production throughput and packaging patterns required.
Cobot Case Packing Systems
The introduction of Cobot case packers has opened new automation opportunity and bridged a gap within the existing automation offering. Due to their size, safety features and payload capabilities, Cobot systems can be deployed to produce more on-demand, supporting manufacturers in preserving operational flexibility. Combining product flow and pattern building in an innovative manner, smart software and the combination of technologies provides manufacturers with greater control over manufacturing.
Benefits of Cobot Case Packaging
Utilising robots for case packing helps simplify production lines through the collation of product programs, improved access and unmatched flexibility. Thanks to their ability to equip several tooling solutions, robots are capable of case filling in most environments. A different variety of robotic arms can be used to suit each application, from the higher payload Omron TM14 to the smaller, shorter reaching Universal Robots UR3.
Production efficiency
Robotic Automation supports measurable and consistent throughput, enabling greater production control and efficiency.
Deployment Flexibility
Cobots were introduced to be a dynamic source of automation, offering safety features that allow them to share space with operators, combined with a small footprint for an array of integration possibilities.
Equipment Versatility
Less moving parts involved with robotic systems when compared to traditional systems, enhancing overall reliability and also making them easier to repurpose.
Reduced Risk of RSI
Cobots are able to supplement the human workforce, reducing the amount of unfavourable manual work and allowing operators to prioritise tasks that require human dexterity.
Robotic Flexibility in Automatic Case Packers Today
Over the years as the digitisation of shopping and the consumer desire for choice/convenience has rocketed, case packing trends move towards high SKU variability, resulting in manufacturers responding with more flexible approaches to case automation.
The latest generation of packaging technology has innovated to support the flexible factory of the future, offering on-demand automation. Combining product flow and pattern building in an innovative manner, the new generation of case packing automation reduces machine complexity while increasing reliability and format flexibility.
As manufacturers select their next case packaging lines, it’s important to choose something that is able to respond to the ever-changing packaging requirements we are faced with.
Advanced Robotics
Where traditional case packers use hard automation, chains, cams, pneumatic pushers etc, the latest generation of automatic case packers use more advanced technology, leveraging robotics, vision systems and smart software, which is more adaptable and enables manufacturers to detect and correct problems on the go.
Innovation and Flexibility
Along with their improved reliability, robots combine technologies and present controls in an innovative manner. The introduction of smart software, which continues to improve in parallel with robotics, equips manufacturers with ultimate production flexibility, controlling everything from one location. Smart software is much more intuitive than the systems used with traditional equipment, making it easier to train staff and ensure the system is always up and running.
