12 Unit 3 Types of industrial robots Part4 Palletizing robots Industrial palletizing refers to loading and unloading parts, boxes or other items to or from pallets. Automated palletizing refers to an industrial robot palletizer performing the application automatically. Palletizing robots can be seen in many industries including food processing, manufacturing, and shipping. There is a large variety of robotic palletizers available with a large range of payload and reach. Figure 3-7 FANUC M-410iW

12 Unit 3 Types of industrial robots Part4 Palletizing robots Various end-of-arm-tooling styles allow flexibility of different types of robot palletization. Bag grippers encompass an item and support it on the bottom, while suction and magnetic grippers typically handle more ridged items and grip them from the top. By automating your shop with a palletizing robot, you can increase the consistency of your loading and unloading processes. Figure 3-8 ABB IRB 260

12 Unit 3 Types of industrial robots Part4 Palletizing robots Palletizing robots were introduced in the early 1980s and have an end of arm tool (end effector) to grab the product from a conveyor or layer table and position it onto a pallet. Palletizing robots bring speed, repeatability, and precision at a low cost. With Palletizing robots, pallets are stacked and un-stacked in a systematic neat manner. Figure 3-9 Palletizer using robotics

12 Unit 3 Types of industrial robots Advantages Part4 Palletizing robots Advantages Palletizing robots systems have many advantages: Safety - Palletizing robot applications protect your workers. Robots are able to work in refrigerated and freezer environments. A palletizing robots can handle tasks that cause repetitive back injuries for workers. Robots lift heavy payloads, speeding up production still further. 更多免费资源

12 Unit 3 Types of industrial robots Part4 Palletizing robots Flexibility - palletizing robots make it easy to change a product or task. They are quickly reprogrammed to accommodate a wide variety of products and packaging. Interchangeable EOAT options allow robots to handle different materials or switch back and forth between applications. Advanced vision technology can allow used robots to distinguish between parts and palletizing different items. A palletizing robot will not only increase the speed of your line, but will also increase your productivity.
