AROTEC accelerates final packaging

Automation solution from AROTEC speeds up final packaging

In many companies, smaller shipping units have to be assembled as mixed pallets with a wide variety of cardboard boxes. AROTEC automated this task with the help of the in-house developed palletizing software PALGO@Mix. This software ensures optimal loading of the pallets - and ensures maximum fill levels.

AROTEC also implemented a plant control computer that coordinates several robot cells. With this system, which has proven itself for years, our customer was able to significantly increase output: In 2-shift operation, up to 5,500 packages per cell are palletized daily.

The solution at a glance:

  • Fully automatic palletizing line with 4 robot cells
  • Capacity: approx. 350 packages / h per cell
  • Package dimensions: between 280 x 180 x 115 mm and 730 x 370 x 300 mm
  • Package weight: 500 g to 30 kg
  • Palletizing height: 1.8 m
 
Plant components from AROTEC:
Robot master computer (RLR) for control of the plant and communication with the periphery (robot, conveyor PLC, material flow computer), visualization computer for display and control of the plant status (HTML-based in the browser), palletizing algorithm PALGO@Mix for the calculation of the pallet stacks.

Proven in practice

PALGO@Mono and PALGO@Mix are used by companies in a wide range of industries and of various sizes: there, they provide an immense increase in productivity. For example, Würth, a specialist for assembly items, uses PALGO@Mix. The company achieves an average load carrier filling level of 80% with this innovative solution. The stacks are so stable that the pallets can be transported with a hand pallet truck. "Würth" processes up to 4,000 packages per cell per day in 2-shift operation.
