What is robotic palletising?
Palletising can be defined as ‘the action of loading or stacking goods on pallets in a defined pattern’. Thus, robotic palletising is the use and installation of robotic systems to fulfil the palletising function. Although, robot palletising differs from the other methods of automated palletising, as it provides a higher-level of control of the arrangement of each pallet.
Robot or robotic palletising is usually installed for speedy transportation of larger and heavier goods. Therefore, offers a solution with an easily adaptable method of transportation, whether the differential is size, weight or speed.
What are the different types of robot palletising?
There are a range of different robot palletising options. Though, choosing the right method is dependent upon the requirements that you need your robotic palletising solution to fulfil. See the list below to for the different robotic palletising options:
