How the CartonFlex Loader Solution For Paperboard Works

The real magic is how the robot's guidance and the gripper work together. By mimicking the technique and strategy a person uses to handle cartons with their eyes and hands, the robot is able to perform the tasks faster and more reliably. The payload capacity and speed of the robot enable it to increase throughputs and productivity by loading more product per cycle and at a faster rate. The system is tailor-able to a wide variety of customer needs depending on type of delivery (pallets, master cases, or bins), required throughputs, multiple carton sizes, changeover, gripping orientation, horizontal or vertical infeeds and continuous or indexing infeeds.

• Articulated Robot solution
• High throughputs (80 cpm to 1000 cpm)
• Handles a wide array of products with quick changeover
