Overview of Servo Module Collaborative Robot Palletizer
Basic working principle
Collaborative robotic palletizers perform palletizing tasks by mimicking the movements of the human arm.
The process begins with an upstream conveyor line delivering boxes, bags, or cartons to designated pickup locations.
An optional built-in vision system or sensors identify the product’s position and orientation.
The collaborative robot (cobot) then uses its intelligent motion control system to precisely guide its end-effector (typically an adaptive suction cup or mechanical gripper) to grasp the product.
The robot stacks the products layer by layer onto the pallet in a stable, orderly pattern, following a pre-programmed or vision-guided pallet pattern.
This entire process is a collaborative process, eliminating the need for traditional large safety fencing.
Safety Assurance
Built-in sensors and force feedback enable the robot to automatically slow down or stop when encountering a person, significantly reducing the risk of workplace injuries and enabling human-robot collaboration.
Flexible Deployment:
Lightweight and mobile, it can be easily redeployed between production lines for a variety of tasks, such as palletizing, depalletizing, and loading and unloading materials from machine tools, providing a high return on investment.
Visual Graphical Interface:
Operators can quickly set up new tasks using a graphical interface, typically using manual guidance and teach-in, minimizing changeover time.
Cost-Effective:
Compared to traditional large-scale industrial robotic palletizing systems, it offers significantly lower deployment costs (no safety fences required) and lower operating costs (lower energy consumption).
Compact and Efficient:
With a very small footprint, its high uptime and flexibility significantly improve overall production efficiency.
Plug-and-Play
The system’s high level of integration allows for fast installation and commissioning, enabling rapid commissioning.
