Collaborative Robots
Collaborative robots have already taken on tasks such as carton erecting, case packing, and box palletizing in the packaging industry, and their future applications will be broader.
FANUC and ABB summarize the application of robots in the packaging industry as:
- Picking
- Packing
- Palletizing
Let’s dive deep into them.
Picking (Cobot Box Erector)
The cobot box erector picks a box blank from the blank magazine, shapes & squares the blank, and then passes the shaped & squared box through the flaps folding unit and tape applicator.
This type of cardboard box erector doesn’t work fast, but it has an outstanding advantage: no need to stop for carton size changeover.
It can erect several cartons of different sizes in one working cycle, and the machine makes very little noise.
Packing (Cobot Case Packer)
A top domestic soy milk manufacturer in China introduced a collaborative robot packer to load orderly grouped soy milk cartons into large cardboard boxes.
Judging from the video, such a slow cobot case packer is very suitable for this packaging line.
Because the sorting and grouping of soy milk cartons requires a certain amount of time.
If your packaging line is similar to this, a cobot case packing machine is considerable.
Palletizing (Cobot Palletizer)
Cobot palletizing frees manual palletizers from heavy labor.
Cobot palletizer’s max. payload is 30kg, which is enough to meet the needs of many companies and its max. pallet height of 2.4m is difficult to achieve by manual palletizing.
