Packaging
Collaborative robots provide consistency, efficiency and accuracy in packaging processes. Cobots can pick and pack products from a conveyor and place parts into packages, and into larger containers for shipping. With no breaks, sick time or vacation, cobots run 24/7.
With maximized accuracy and repeatability, cobots eliminate improper or inefficient packaging that lead to bottlenecks in production such as damaged product, repacking and rework, and wasted shipping space.
From packaging individual parts, to packing into larger containers, to palletizing in preparation for shipping, cobots automate the process with consistency and nonstop operation, cobots significantly optimizethe overall cost and fulfillment timeline for a job.
A collaborative packing cobot fulfills tasks including:
• Pick and place
• Place items on or take them from conveyor belt
• Filling packages or containers
• Scanning barcodes
• Palletizing
• Labeling and kitting
• Preparing or conducting QC
Effective uses of cobot packaging include:
• Food and beverage
• Consumer goods
• Pharmaceutical products
• Packagers and co-packagers
Benefits of automation
Seven-axis movement: OB7 provides unparalleled flexibility of movement compared to most other cobots that offer only six axes.
Accuracy and Efficiency: Assembly tasks require utmost precise and accurate movements for optimal results. Cobots are an excellent choice for assembly work, as they offer highly accurate and repeatable movements, leading to fewer errors and increased efficiency.
"No Programming": OB7 cobots can be easily set up and operated by anyone on your team, with no programming or coding skills necessary. Operators can teach OB7 by moving it into position and using a straightforward graphical interface to make adjustments.
Improved Safety: Collaborative robots can complete assembly tasks without being fenced off or behind a cage, and will stop or slow down if a person comes into contact.
Free Up Personnel for High-Value Tasks: Collaborative robot assembly systems allow human workers to focus on other high-value tasks that require critical thinking and decision-making. By automating repetitive and tedious assembly tasks, workers can be reassigned to more complex and strategic roles.
Automate with confidence. It's easy to get started.
