How a leading winery boosted efficiency with cobot palletizing
Traditional automated systems were too expensive or too rigid to meet their needs. What they required was a flexible, cost-effective, and operator-friendly palletizing solution that could keep up with changing carton formats and high volumes — without disrupting production.
User-Friendly Palletizing System Powered by D:PLOY Up and Running Within One Day at Dutch Distillery
Schrobbelèr B.V., producer of an iconic Dutch herbal liquor since 1973, was ready to automate its palletizing tasks but needed an approach that could seamlessly integrate into its operations without disrupting the company's traditional craftmanship.

LOW-MAINTENANCE PALLETISER MAGNET SAVES ROBOT AND MANPOWER
The modular construction offers users, such as integrators, packaging companies, food producers or pharmaceutical companies, a number of choices that save on an extra robot and manpower.
Picked Up and Put Off
Pallets loaded with industrial yarn spools are picked up from the floor of a predefined storage place and transported to the creel location. There, the gripper positions itself vertically above the pallet.
Automated Palletizing of Sweet Tea and Juice From a Cold Room
While palletizing cartons is a regular automation application, doing so from a cold room that is regularly hosed with water to stay clean is a specific challenge. Motion Controls Robotics overcame these by using vacuum technology from Piab supplied by Neff Grp Dist.
Conventional vs. Robotic Palletizing
Rather than getting immersed in ambiguous statistics and marketing buzzwords like flexible or fixed automation, this paper looks at the specific applications that favor each technology to chart the future of palletizing automation.
