The application shown is a 6-axis Kawasaki RS080N Palletizer Robot with custom tooling to allow for different box sizes to be palletized. This specific robot cell is palletizing frozen IQF blueberry, in a extremely cold, wet and humid environment. Considerations were taken to ensure that the environmental conditions do not impede the robot’s performance or create maintenance issues. This robot can pick up 80kg, and the robotic arm has enough length to palletize multiple pallets if required.

Other applications with the RS080N are also possible, kindly inquire, and let us know what you want to automate.

The application shown is a 6-axis Kawasaki BX100L Palletizer Robot with custom tooling to allow for different types of products to be palletized, specifically, boxes and bags, at the same time. Three different process lines feed into the palletizer cell, which creates a nexus for packaging that is staged for storage directly into coolers once pallets are stacked, organizing the forklift traffic in the facility as well. The sizes of the bags are different as well depending on the SKU being run during production. The tool was designed to allow for boxes and bags to be palletized, at the same time, without adjustment to the tool between products. This specific robot cell is palletizing fresh carrots, in an extremely cold, wet and humid environment. Considerations were taken to ensure that the environmental conditions do not impede the robot’s performance or create maintenance issues. This robot can pick up 100kg, and the robotic arm has enough length to palletize multiple pallets.

Other applications with the BX100L are also possible, kindly inquire, and let us know what you want to automate.

The application shown is a 6-axis Kawasaki RS020N Case Erector Robot with custom tooling to allow for different box sizes to be formed and taped by the conveyor. This application is entirely skid mounted, i.e. it is not fixed, and is mobile and can move around the facility based on production requirements. Additionally, the system is designed to allow for different case sizes to be used, with the largest possible size at the facility being the limit. Adding new cases for new products being packaged is as simple as adding motion for the new case and dropping a button onto the HMI for the operator’s program selection. This robot can pick up to 20kg and has enough length to manage multiple stacks of flat boxes. Additionally, the conveyor that tapes the boxes, was converted from existing manual equipment, over a decade old, that required an operator to insert cases and then tape them, into an automated addition to the system, which automatically tapes the bottom of each case when the robot inserts the erected box into the conveyor.

Other applications with the RS020N are also possible, kindly inquire, and let us know what you want to automate.
