Painless Palletizing

Optimize your end-of-line operations and increase productivity with cobot palletizing solutions.

Start an efficiency revolution with palletizing cobots

Palletizing is an end-of-line task performed in almost all production facilities. Therefore, a reliable and efficient palletizing system is crucial to business continuity. Yet, it can quickly become a bottleneck, and here's why:

There's a ramping labor shortage in the manufacturing industry. People don't want to perform such strenuous tasks Workers face high injury risks, which can lead to prolonged absences. Hiring and packaging costs are increasing daily.

That's why you should consider collaborative robotic palletizing. Collaborative robots can work hours without breaks, which means you can significantly increase your production output and get your products to the market faster.

Robotic palletizing is also a safer option for your workers. With cobots handling the heavy lifting and stacking, there is less risk of injury or strain on your employees.

Palletizing Advantages
Increase Productivity Capable of running with no downtime to increase output or cover unexpected staff shortages
Labor & Ergonomics Protect your workers' health and safety with a cobot to handle repetitive lifting (up to 20kg).
Compact Design Our cobots have a compact design and a low footprint, making them easy to install in existing production environments.
Quick Payback  Average ROI in 12 months and ongoing operational cost savings. There are also leasing options available.

“Each year a decreasing number of people apply for positions related to palletizing in our plants. This is a key process which has to be performed efficiently. For packaging we needed a robot with enough reach of the arm. The task that the robot needed to fulfill consisted of picking various boxes with tea and placing them on a pallet.”
