High Speed Picking, Packing and Palletizing System

A custom robotic system from Kaufman Engineered Systems utilizes a FANUC M-2iA Series Delta robot to orient cans, using FANUC iR vision and line tracking, to be packed into cases and trays. A FANUC R-1000iA Series robot packs 8, 12, and 24-count cases, which are automatically sealed and conveyed to the palletizing cell. A completed palletized load is labeled and verified by a Kaufman Engineered Systems KRL1V Robotic labeler, which uses a FANUC LRMate 200iD/7L. After the labeling process, a Kaufman model SXPA-20 automatic stretch wrapper secures the load for shipment. Automatic end-of-arm tool changing and adjusting guides transition the system from cases to accommodate trays.

Trayed product is conveyed to the palletizing cell, where a Kaufman KPal S, Spatula end-of-arm tool picks and palletizes each tray onto a quarter pallet. Each quarter pallet is dressed in the secure manual application zone, then strapped and individually labeled. Finished quarter pallets are palletized using a Kaufman KPal Palletizer, robotically labeled, and stretch-wrapped for shipment.
