Robot-arm

In the range of robot palletizers made by Concetti, the turn-arm robot palletizer represents the fastest and most versatile model for the point – to – point  moving.

The robotic arm palletizer can handle bags containing stable, aerated or powdery products, allowing the partial overlapping of the bags in the layer both on top and alongside. It also offers flexible format changes. This machine is extremely easy to use and allows you to palletize even on pallets sitting directly on the floor.

How does the robotic arm palletizer work?

The robotic arm palletizer features a long hinged arm installed on a rotating platform, allowing a fast and accurate movement on the 4 axis. A multi-function revolving pincer, outfitted for different kinds of manufacturing, has been installed on the arm pit. The horizontal arm skews and bends to the necessary height so that the pincer can pick up the bags from the bag in-feed roller conveyorand then rises to allow the central body free rotation.

The pincer, revolving on its own axis, places the bag in the position set by the programmed palletizing pattern.The robotic arm is positioned at the required height and the pincer opens to place the bag on the pallet to be formed.
At this point, the machine returns to the starting point and is ready for a new cycle.

All the features

This particular special construction solution gives the robotic arm palletizer unique features:

• It’s versatile, flexible and maneuverable thanks to its joystick-equipped operator keyboard.
• It gives you the possibility of palletizing from several pickup points in order to handle bags from different bagging lines in one or more palletizing points. 
• It’s possible to palletize on pallets sitting directly on the floor. 
• It’s very compact. This system can be installed also in those premises where it wouldn’t be possible the positioning of a standard palletizer.

The robotic arm palletizer technology

The machine features a PLC-controlled operating system. Through specific programs, the robotic arm palletizer can virtually perform any type of palletizing program.

The format and program changes are carried out automatically and swiftly. In fact, this machine can produce 1200 bags/hour at high speed and it can handle bags up to 110 lbs in order to implement the efficiency of the whole implant.

The robotic arm palletizer comes complete with safety devices compliant with current international standards.

Other options of the robotic palletizer

The robotic arm palletizer by Concetti offers the option to equip the pick-up pincer with hooks, so that it can move: 

• the empty pallets 
• the sheet-feeder on empty pallet or between layers
• different kinds of bags

This machine has an automatic magazine for empty pallets, cardboards and Moplefan sheets.
