Soft drink and water bottle shrink bundles are typically produced at the rate of 25 to 45 bundles per minute depending the line speed of the filling machines. Each bundle weighs between 7 and 10 kgs. Manually palletizing these bundles for storage and transport requires a lot of manpower.
Robotic palletizers are a very cost effective way to improve the productivity of the filling lines. Soft drink production schedules are heavily dependent on seasonal demand. The demand is high during the summer months and tapers off during the cooler months. Finding manpower during the peak season is a difficult task and retaining the manpower during off months is an additional cost to the company.
Robotic palletizing solutions are a cost-effective alternative to high level palletizers and offer the flexibility to accommodate various bundle sizes
To maximize the utilization of robots, a single robot can often service multiple filling lines, enhancing overall productivity.
Robotic palletizing solutions are frequently integrated with other automated systems to create comprehensive packaging lines. These integrations can include conveyors, sorting mechanisms and other equipment, streamlining the entire production process. By automating palletizing tasks, businesses can reduce labor costs, improve product quality and enhance overall operational efficiency
Benefits of Robotic Palletizers
- Compact foot print when compared to conventional palletizers
- Flexibility in terms of handling shrink bundles from from multiple lines
- Lower initial investment and higher uptime when compared to conventional palletizers
- Can be easily integrated with upstream filling lines and downstream equipment such as stretch wrappers
