This robot palletizer uses a four axis articulated industrial robot to build two pallet loads simultaneously and place separator sheets between each layer. The gripper head lifts and places single cases in sequence.
Robot palletizers have taken a large share of the market for palletizers because of their flexibility of operation, relative ease of installation and adaptability to new products. However, a layer palletizer is generally capable of production rates higher than a single robot.
