STRATEGIC BRIEFING Ingenious Packaging Machinery and Automation Solutions

Introduction to robotics in packaging Robotics is fast becoming an integral part of many industrial processes. Machines using robotics bring additional flexibility to repetitive manufacturing and packaging tasks and their mechanical design and electronic control allow them to be easily re-programmed to move between high-speed product handling, picking and placing items, cartoning, case packing and palletizing. Our clients typically use robotics for manufacturing applications. However, the use of robotics extends throughout the packaging line as the ideal partner for speeding up factory-to-market...

Introduction to robotics in packaging Our secondary and end-of-line robotic packaging solutions include: Automating such time-consuming and tedious tasks releases workers to perform more valuable duties. In certain cases, collaborative robots or co-bots can work together with human workers without the need for guard rails. Using a force sensitive base, the robots can identify any outside forces acting on the robot and stop when required – facilitating a safe and mutually beneficial robot and human work situation. Applications Robotics are typically used in secondary and end-ofline packaging applications,...

Introduction to robotics in packaging Future of robotics: Cartoner 4.0 The advantages of robotics will become increasingly important in future packaging applications in line with industry 4.0. Commonly referred to as the fourth industrial revolution, industry 4.0 is a global trend of automation and cloud-based data exchange in manufacturing. Industry 4.0 is a response to changing consumer behaviour, which demands higher levels of responsiveness, mass customisation and product availability. This, in turn, puts ever-increasing pressure on inventory. Coupled with the rise of e-commerce and increasing...
