2Robotic palletizing Cell

The AR Series Robotic Palletizing Cell is a flexible palletizing system offering the best solution to any palletizing need. Premier Tech has deep mechanical, electrical and software designing and manufacturing capabilities, all under the same roof (more than 40 technicians and engineers), and offers the widest range of rigid and flexible palletizing solutions in the industry. Premier Tech has combined its innovative engineering and control

Depalletizing: Uses FANUC vision system to recognize the unit position. Reaches speeds up to 20 BPM.

Several grippers are available for rigid and flexible palletizing: bundle gripper, vacuum gripper, fork gripper, clamp gripper, magnetic gripper for cans, flexible finger gripper etc.

capabilities with its state-of-the-art bag preparation and pallet handling technology. This robotic palletizing cell includes the industry-leading FANUC Robotics models M410iB or R2000iB. This heavy-duty robotic cell can simultaneously gather from up to four different incoming product lines. It can just as easily be configured to fit in tighter layouts to palletize one incoming product.

Applications

Boxes, bundles, cases, cans, drums, trays, totes, bags, bales, etc.
