Robotics systems lately have developed a soft touch to pick up delicate foods without damaging them, and there have been a lot of developments in the grippers themselves to handle these fragile products. However, these grippers can’t do it alone.
With a market that is expected to reach $10.3 billion by 2027, food and beverage companies need to know the benefits and challenges of implementing AS/RS.
VGP20 electric vacuum gripper provides a solution for challenging palletizing scenarios such as large bags of dog food and bulky, porous cardboard boxes.
The self-contained collaborative robot (COBOT) case packer for the packing of lid and container packaging incorporates an Omron 6-axis cobot to help processors bridge a labor shortage gap in the U.S. plastics processing industry while delivering greater versatility, flexibility and productivity.
Four-axis PL190 and PL320 models join the company’s PL500 robot, enabling a range of palletizing applications, order picking and other logistical tasks.
MG10 is a versatile, high-performance, easy to use magnetic gripper for material handling, assembly and machine tending applications, including food manufacturing.
