Robot Palletising in the Manufacturing Industry

The UK manufacturing industry is sometimes considered as a declining industry. However, the UK is currently the 9th largest manufacturing nation on the globe. It employs over 2.5 million people and has an annual output of almost ?200 billion. Robot palletising is one of many solutions that can support the manufacturing industry. When used in the right way, robot palletising offers a flexible and fast palletising solution. Most importantly, making it a cost-effective way to palletise in the manufacturing industry. What is robotic palletising? Palletising can be defined as ?the action of loading or stacking goods on pallets in a defined pattern?. Thus, robotic palletising is the use and installation of robotic systems to fulfil the palletising function. Although, robot palletising differs from the other methods of automated palletising, as it provides a higher-level of control of the arrangement of each pallet. Robot or robotic palletising is usually installed for speedy transportation of larger and heavier goods. Therefore, offers a solution with an easily adaptable method of transportation, whether the differential is size, weight or speed. What are the different types of robot palletising? There are a range of different robot palletising options. Though, choosing the right method is dependent upon the requirements that you need your robotic palletising solution to fulfil. See the list below to for the different robotic palletising options: Box Palletising usually means carboard boxes and is a very common solution for the food industry. Can Palletising ? a solution for canned foods such as soups and bean, storing thing them to achieve high levels of efficiency. Bottle Palletising ? used mainly in drinks industry, soft or alcoholic, again storing to meet high efficiency levels. Crate Palletising ? mainly refers to plastic crates, includes de-palletising of empty crates. Sack Palletising ? bespoke grippers and conveyors included to suitably transfer goods. Tray Palletising ? usually used for dairy, fruit, and vegetable products. Bespoke Palletising ? tailored solutions for irregular sizing, weights, and shapes.
