Robotiq, a number one innovator in robotics options, is proud to announce the launch of its ground-breaking PE20 Palletizer, designed to raise collaborative robotic palletizing operations throughout industries. This cutting-edge answer boasts the aptitude to effortlessly elevate and stack bins of 18kg (over 60% stronger than earlier than) on pallets of as much as 2150 mm excessive, marking a major development in making cobot palletizing accessible to a variety of sectors that had been beforehand restricted to handbook labor or expensive, cumbersome and sophisticated standard industrial robots.

The PE20 is the third palletizing answer launched by Robotiq for the packaging automation business. Following the success of its predecessors, the PE10 and AX10, Robotiq engineers and designers have intelligently squeezed the footprint of a cobot palletizer to absolutely the minimal. The PE20 encompasses a sensible and extremely compact design for simple integration and operation. This makes it one of many smallest and most adaptive footprints within the collaborative robotic business, saving firms from costly manufacturing flooring reorganization.

Outfitted with the PowerPick20 vacuum gripper, the most recent finish effector innovation from Robotiq’s engineering group, the PE20 palletizing answer supplies unmatched efficiency and flexibility. The gripper has a excessive payload to weight ratio, permitting to optimize the UR20 elevate capability to 18 kg (40 lb). PowerPick20 features a dual-channel exterior controller. Enhanced management over the vacuum stream permits for optimizing a number of case decide performances in addition to slipsheet administration. The gripper equipment contains a number of suction cups together with small and huge brackets (as proven on the image beneath) to accommodate totally different case sizes. And organising the gripper is extremely easy, requiring simply an Allen key. This eliminates the complexity and programming required with customized grippers.

PowerPick20 is the one normal gripper in the marketplace that’s designed particularly for palletizing purposes utilizing Common Robotic’s next-generation arm, the UR20. As Common Robotic’s trusted tooling associate from the very starting, Robotiq has performed an integral function in advancing the sphere of collaborative robotics by giving tens of 1000’s of robotic arms their final goal and performance. Because the unparalleled market chief, Robotiq has efficiently deployed cobot Finish-of-Arm (EOA) instruments throughout a variety of purposes on each continent, setting a benchmark for innovation and flexibility within the business.

On the subject of programming, Robotiq once more hits the mark with its unmatched, user-friendly, and intuitive software program, that truly requires ZERO programming. The answer encompasses a visible interface and built-in modules that make setup easy, guiding the consumer by way of a sequence of simple steps. This optimization is the direct results of making a standardized answer for palletizing purposes.

By way of standardization, Robotiq’s engineers have efficiently eradicated numerous complexities. Having the {hardware} components pre-connected and already programmed inside the software program saves an immense period of time and alleviates the dangers of malfunction throughout set up. It additionally ensures seamless operation of all parts when the answer is delivered to the shopper. Effort and time to outline geometry, pallet positioning, and sign inputs in an effort to precisely handle the cell standing, aren’t required. In contrast to different software program suppliers who don’t supply {hardware}, selecting their options can result in the necessity for customized programming and exterior experience, leading to additional prices and an absence of full management over the palletizing answer.

The brand new PE20 Robotiq Palletizing Answer is a lot greater than the sum of the {hardware} and the software program. Its simplicity might deceive how Robotiq’s engineers have ingeniously tackled every complexity in favor of efficient design, easy integration, and clean operation in even essentially the most difficult end-of-line palletizing circumstances. This outstanding achievement required numerous hours of meticulously managed and optimized robotic trajectories contemplating the total vary of pallet patterns, infeed potentialities, palletized materials varieties, and cycle instances. 
 
The result’s essentially the most versatile, economically environment friendly cobot palletizing answer out there, now for a wider vary of industries and heavier valuable cargo than ever earlier than.
