Bespoke Robot Palletising Systems
At Central Conveyors, we specialise in designing, manufacturing, and implementing bespoke robot palletising systems that seamlessly integrate with your existing production lines. Our UK-manufactured solutions combine precision engineering with innovative technology to create palletising systems that not only meet your current operational requirements but are also adaptable to future needs.
Robot palletising utilises industrial robotic arms to automatically stack products onto pallets in precise, programmed patterns. These systems employ sophisticated gripping technology and advanced software to handle a wide range of product sizes, weights, and shapes with maximum flexibility.
Key Benefits of Robot Palletising
-
Enhanced Efficiency: Operates continuously with consistent cycle times, significantly increasing throughput compared to manual operations
-
Improved Safety: Reduces workplace injuries by eliminating repetitive manual lifting and handling of heavy loads
-
Consistent Quality: Ensures perfect stacking patterns and product orientation, reducing damage during transport
-
Space Optimisation: Compact design maximises valuable floor space whilst maintaining high output
-
Versatility: Easily adapts to different product types and pallet configurations through simple reprogramming
-
Cost-Effectiveness: Delivers long-term return on investment through reduced labour costs, minimised product damage, and increased productivity
Applications
Our robot palletising systems are suitable for numerous industries, including:
-
Food and beverage manufacturing
-
Pharmaceutical production
-
Retail and e-commerce distribution
-
Industrial manufacturing
-
Chemical processing
-
Construction materials
Robot De-palletising
Robot de-palletising is the inverse process of palletising, where robotic systems automatically remove products from pallets and place them onto conveyor systems for further processing, packaging, or distribution. This technology is essential for receiving operations and the early stages of production lines.
Key Benefits of Robot De-palletising
-
Improved Inbound Logistics: Streamlines the receiving process, reducing bottlenecks at the beginning of production lines
-
Labour Optimisation: Reallocates workers from repetitive, physically demanding tasks to more value-added activities
-
Consistent Flow: Ensures a steady, predictable flow of products into your production or distribution process
-
Reduced Product Damage: Precision handling minimises the risk of damage during the unloading process
-
Versatility: Capable of handling mixed pallets and varying product types with intelligent vision systems
-
Enhanced Workplace Safety: Eliminates manual handling risks associated with lifting and repetitive movements
Applications
Robot de-palletising systems are particularly valuable in:
-
Manufacturing inbound logistics
-
Distribution centre receiving operations
-
Beverage and food processing
-
Retail supply chain operations
-
Automotive component handling
-
Construction material processing
Layer Palletising
Layer palletising is a specialised form of automated palletising where entire layers of products are formed and then transferred onto a pallet simultaneously. This method is particularly efficient for high-volume operations handling uniform products.
Key Benefits of Layer Palletising
-
High-Speed Operation: Significantly faster than individual pick-and-place palletising, with capabilities exceeding 100 cases per minute
-
Optimal for Uniform Products: Exceptionally efficient for consistent product sizes and weights
-
Reduced Complexity: Simplified mechanical systems compared to robotic solutions, potentially reducing maintenance requirements
-
Precise Layer Formation: Creates perfectly aligned layers for maximum pallet stability
-
Space Efficiency: Can be designed to minimise footprint whilst maximising output
-
Cost-Effective for High Volumes: Delivers excellent return on investment for high-throughput operations
Applications
Layer palletising systems excel in environments handling:
-
Bottled and canned beverages
-
Packaged food products
-
Consumer goods in standardised packaging
-
Building materials in uniform containers
-
Pharmaceutical products in consistent packaging
-
Chemical products in standardised containers
