Robot Palletising

RMGroup provide the perfect solution for those looking to further automate their manual packaging systems. The 2-on-the-floor palletising system serves as an increased output system for higher production throughputs. As standard the system includes new or used ABB robot palletising system with gripper head, Pick up conveyor and 2 pallet loading sections, allowing more time to replace pallets reducing stopping frequencies of the robot.

Our palletising cells are provided with the latest safety systems that meet British standards. Safety cells include fixed guarding, fortress interlocked operator door and 2 set of light curtain barriers.

RMGroup have been the largerest ABB robot system integrator for the past 3/4 years and dominate the palletising and general industry market. As for bag filling systems, we are one of the largest privately owned manufacturers.

Principle of operation

Empty pallets are placed onto both the pallet loading sections by the operator. Bags are transferred into the palletising cell via bag handling conveyors. Retro reflective sensors detect the bag in position on the pickup conveyor and the robot arm glides into position to pick up the bag. Bags are then stacked onto the pallet. Once a pallet is full the robot will continue to fill the remaining pallet until both are full, the robot then waits for the pallets to be removed by the operator before it begins its next cycle.

Optional Extra’s

Fully Automated Palletising Systems incorporating ABB Robot palletisers with various conveying as well as pallet accumulation, pallet magazines, pallet wrapping and slip sheet applicators.

Our automated systems use the latest ABB technology in robotics to ensure efficiency and reliability; the systems are capable of drastically improving the efficiency of any production line. All of our systems are designed with your needs in mind to suit your bag/product type and designed to operate in the most intricate and complex spaces. Customers are able to visualise what their site design is via CAD layout drawings.

All of our robots are housed inside cells that include the latest technology in safety, including fixed mesh guards, and light guarding to prohibit entry to robot. Any access into the system will be protected by Fortress Key switches insuring the highest level of safety for your workers.

What we supply in our Fully Automated Systems

Further the efficiency of your line by the addition of a 3 full pallet accumulation system

Minimise ‘pallet take off time’ with 3 full pallet accumulation robot palletising. This layout allows operators to carry out other duties without having to spend time on a forklift truck waiting for full pallets to exit. This system will accumulate three full pallets before an FLT operator is required. On this particular system a pallet magazine can be used for automated placement of pallets, or empty pallets can be placed on manually.
