1. Layer palletizing
With layer palletizing, items might be stacked and moved way more shortly than with a decide–and–place strategy. When it comes to programming, there may be not a lot distinction between transferring one field or a number of on the identical time. As soon as a layer has been accomplished, the gripper will transfer the neatly aligned objects over to the pallet in a single motion. The vast majority of our prospects use pneumatic grippers designed by our UR+ companions and system integrators.
Whereas the utmost payload and attain of a cobot guidelines out carrying a number of heavy objects on the identical time, there are nonetheless methods you utilize it to implement a layer palletizing utility. For instance, the OmniPack answer has a ‘magic pack’ choice that automates the method of filling in pallet layers in probably the most optimum means. There may be additionally scope to make the most of a customized made gripper.
2. Pallet stacking
Pallet stacking is a comparatively easy activity on paper, however it’s taxing and might simply result in harmful errors. To maximise security and make sure you’re getting as many objects onto every pallet as potential, the perfect sample for stacking your pallet is in an ‘overlapping brick’ formation. Nonetheless, when working at pace and with masses that may shortly grow to be tiring, your employees will grow to be extra prone to errors and damage. They may deviate from the right stacking technique or use poor kind to carry vital masses.
At finest, an inefficient stacking technique will waste area and result in larger logistics prices. At worst, a complete pallet of products, which may weigh a whole lot of kilos, may topple over and end in critical damage or loss of life. Letting your cobot deal with pallet stacking is extra environment friendly, as your cobot gained’t deviate from the stacking sample you’ve programmed and create an unstable stack.
