Intelligrated to showcase latest Alvey Robotics material handling solutions at Automate 2013
In-booth demonstration features robotic case packing, unpacking and palletizing capabilities
(CINCINNATI: Nov. 26, 2012)-Intelligrated® (www.intelligrated.com), a leading North American-based automated material handling solutions provider, will showcase its latest Alvey® Robotics case packing, unpacking, palletizing and depalletizing solutions in booth #614 at Automate 2013, January 21-24 in Chicago. In-booth demonstrations will feature two robotic arms operating on a single PLC-based control system performing case depalletizing, packing and unpacking of bottles, as well as an additional robotic arm operating on proprietary controls demonstrating case palletizing capabilities.
Intelligrated's integrated PLC platform eliminates the need for traditional proprietary robot controllers by streamlining complex control communication, reducing response time and minimizing changeover delays. By operating on industry-standard controls, Alvey robotic systems seamlessly integrate with other in-line equipment to provide reliable and flexible product handling with minimal downtime, startup time, training, programming, hardware and troubleshooting costs.
Intelligrated, an RIA-certified integrator with over 16 years of robotic material handling experience, provides single-source design, programming fabrication, installation, commissioning and after-sales customer support. Alvey Robotics from Intelligrated support a wide variety of material handling systems, including robotic arms from multiple manufacturers and custom end-of-arm tooling built to handle various product types and quick-line changeovers.
In addition to its booth displays and demonstrations, Intelligrated will discuss a palletizing application at Automate's Industrial Robot Application Success Stories conference on Thursday, Jan. 24 at 8 a.m. To register for the event, visit www.automate2013.com.
Intelligrated will also feature its latest conveyor and sortation technologies, order fulfillment systems, software and services in booth #2903 at ProMat 2013, co-located with Automate. Intelligrated's exhibit at ProMat will feature solutions that provide the accuracy, flexibility, control and speed that today's multichannel distribution and manufacturing warehouse operations require.

Featured Product
Schmalz Technology Development - Vacuum Generation without Compressed Air - Flexible and Intelligent
• Vacuum generation that's 100% electrical;
• Integrated intelligence for energy and process control;
• Extensive communication options through IO-Link interface;
Schmalz already offers a large range of solutions that can optimize handling process from single components such as vacuum generators to complete gripping systems. Particularly when used in autonomous warehouse, conventional vacuum generation with compressed air reaches its limits. Compressed air often is unavailable in warehouses. Schmalz therefore is introducing a new technology development: a gripper with vacuum generation that does not use compressed air. The vacuum is generated 100% electrically. This makes the gripper both energy efficient and mobile. At the same time, warehouses need systems with integrated intelligence to deliver information and learn. This enables the use of mobile and self-sufficient robots, which pick production order at various locations in the warehouse. Furthermore, Schmalz provides various modular connection options from its wide range of end effectors in order to handle different products reliably and safely.
