Application Specific Robotics
Challenges Solved
Robotics and other automated solutions can improve ergonomics, productivity and quality. We help you evaluate where automation makes sense in your facility and then select and implement a solution. When existing options don’t work, we can develop a custom-fit solution for your unique operational needs.
Heavy Products
Robotic solutions safely and easily handle large, heavy items. Customized robotic solutions are ideal for applications like high-volume food packaging, automotive products, household goods, and industrial supplies.
Bulky Products
Regardless of weight, bulky products require two or more people to properly handle. Automation improves the handling process for many product categories, including household goods, food supplies, and building materials.
Special Handling
Robotics can also be customized for your special handling applications. Accurately arrange products to reduce errors, boost efficiency, and do more with less floor space.
Decanting
Manually opening and emptying cases into totes is one of the frequently overlooked tasks in a distribution center. This tedious and dangerous task requires labor and space to fulfill. Robotics can ease the burden of manual decanting with automated solutions.
Palletizing
Stacking goods onto pallets is repetitive and physically taxing, making it prone to errors and injuries. Robotic and conventional palletizers are designed to speed up this task while reducing error and allowing workers to focus on other tasks in the facility.
Depalletizing / Delayering
Removing product from pallets is often a more complex task than palletizing, especially with mixed SKU pallets. Whether single-case or full-layer, robots can streamline this dull, labor-intensive process to free up labor resources and reduce product damage.
Freezer
Many food distributors and grocers face the challenge of filling roles in refrigerated or frozen environments. Automation specifically designed for these environments can alleviate the labor requirements in harsh temperatures, improving employee satisfaction and reducing turnover rates.
