Food manufacturers are increasingly turning to cobots and robots to alleviate labor shortages, increase efficiency and manage tight operational footprints.

Combining vertical reciprocating conveyors with automated guided vehicles and autonomous mobile robots can serve as an efficient, safe and cost-effective solution for accessing taller racking, pick modules, mezzanines and multiple floor levels in warehouses or production environments.

Are you considering a project that could benefit from cobot automation?

Cobots can work safely among people and relieve them of the drudge work nobody wants to do—like cartoning and palletizing.

While previous industrial revolutions were primarily driven by technological advancements, the emergence of Industry 5.0 is much more people focused. It's not defined by a single technological advancement but by a renewed focus on the human element. This era marks a crucial and overdue transition toward human-centric manufacturing operations, processes and businesses as a whole.

Automation and robotics allow small manufacturers to compete, win more deals and solidify customer relationships as effectively as their larger competitors.

The JBS Principe facility is FOOD ENGINEERING’s 2024 Plant of the Year for its daring modern take on traditional Italian-style dried meat production.

Co-manufacturer Cascade Coffee adds automation to its secondary packaging operations by adding six cobot palletizing units.

Each series of integrated conveyors meters, separates, singulates and/or aligns product, depending on the application, to provide the optimal product separation, speed and orientation for ideal presentation to the robotic system for pick-up.

The company’s UR30 is the second in its new series of cobots and is built on the same architecture as the UR20.
