Time and again in the course of our reporting on automation and robotics, end-of-line challenges such as palletizing and case forming come to the fore.
Sidel has delivered a central palletizing system composed of eight robotic cells connected to 28 packing lines at Unilever’s nutrition factory in Ploiesti, Romania, for savory brands including iconic Knorr.
The new office – equipped with modern amenities, advanced technological tools, and spacious conference areas – is designed to foster innovation and collaboration among Piab's teams.
With the addition of the Hartness High-Speed Layer Palletizing Tool, Schneider is now able to offer its world-class solutions to an even larger portion of the palletizing market.
In interview with the CEO of the robotic packaging machinery manufacturer, a big focus is the state of the economy and the availability of qualified workers.
Though a lot of modern equipment available on the market today can come pretty close, the assumption that a single tool can be a cure-all is an unrealistic one. Automation and robotics have become indispensable in modern manufacturing and warehousing, driving efficiency, productivity, and cost savings. But with so many variables in play, it can be overwhelming to determine where to start.
