Robotic packaging

Packaging automation

Monotonous activities, such as packing, make work reluctant to perform and make it more difficult to find and motivate employees. Product packaging is a process that is ideally suited to automation and robotization. In addition, it plays a significant role in many manufacturing companies, especially those processing goods on a mass scale. Packaging robotization can save not only time and money, but also the safety of employees who can engage in activities that are less error-prone.

Packing into collective packaging

We offer automated solutions for packaging products in collective packaging. These are systems that, due to their repeatability, bring a number of benefits. We adapt solutions to many types of products, such as bottles, cans, cartons, bags, bags, bars, boards, chemical products, construction materials and many others.

Flexibility of our stations

Depending on the needs, we program robots to handle various types of products and quickly adapt them to new types of goods and requirements, which gives great flexibility in the process. Our packaging stations save time and resources by minimizing the necessary modifications to the infrastructure in the event of changes in production priorities. This allows customers to effectively respond to changing production needs and ensure high quality packaging without the need for costly system modifications.

Create an attractive workplace and improve safety

More and more manufacturing companies are having difficulty finding people to work. According to ManpowerGroup’s “Talent Shortage” report, as many as 45% of industrial production companies have problems filling positions with production workers. Investing in robotization of the packaging process is a proven solution to this problem, which also brings benefits. You create more attractive jobs – robotic station operator. You get rid of work in difficult conditions or monotonous activities that cause a decrease in efficiency and an increase in the risk of errors.

We also offer our own experience to help in hiring the right person for the position of operator.

Minimizing the risk of operator errors

We create our stations based on proven and tested devices. We have quick access to spare parts thanks to our own warehouse stock and contracts signed with suppliers. The control is carried out using intuitive HMI panels, where you will gain access to the most important process data. We reduce the risk of operator errors through training in operation, as well as providing clear instructions on the operation and maintenance of stations and individual parts, and we also offer warranty service in the price. All this provides peace of mind in the event of an emergency and minimizes downtime due to failures.

For customers implementing their first robots, we offer support in preparing the process and staff.

Integration with the management system

Robotic stations and lines can be equipped with systems that monitor the entire process in real time and report the results to production management systems (ERP, MES, SCADA, CMMS, WMS, or MRP), which allows for continuous improvement and increasing the efficiency of the process. The station can be integrated, for example, with a barcode scanning system, vision system or weight control, which further increases efficiency and control. We regularly integrate with production management systems on projects. The following innovative integration, in which we used our own solution, proves that we know the subject.

We also offer extension of packaging automation with vision systems, weight control, robotic carton forming, automatic labeling, robotic palletization, and automatic pallet wrapping, which can be integrated with robotic packaging. These systems provide additional control of the packaged product and increase the effectiveness and efficiency of packaging-related processes. Wrappers ensure faster preparation of pallets for distribution and the same film tension for each pallet, which increases safety during transport.

Additional systems reduce operator interference in the production process and save warehouse or storage space between processes.

Comprehensive scope of work

Automation, robotics and mechanics, as well as electrical and instrumentation installations will be designed and implemented by our engineers. Our assembly hall for test stations and lines also includes an assembly plant for control and power supply cabinets. In addition, we have a warranty and post-warranty service team that will take care of the solution after implementation.
