PROJECT SUMMARY
BHS Robotics offers a collaborative palletizing solution which is simple and easy-to-use for businesses of all sizes, in all markets.
THE CHALLENGE
The labor shortage is an ongoing and significant issue for manufacturing companies across all industries including food, electronics, pharmaceuticals, aerospace, automotive, consumer goods, and supporting 3PL businesses.
Traditionally, business have favored operators over automation because people can be cross trained and scheduled across a variety of duties through the workday. Many businesses are highly equipped to manage human resources but may not have comparable infrastructure to support technical equipment solutions.
This environment has resulted in an increasing demand for low-cost solutions which are both flexible and easy to use. BHS Robotics is bringing the needed solutions to customers.
THE SOLUTION
The system is built upon a light weight painted steel structure with a ½” top plate. The structure is mounted on lockable casters for ease of relocation and positioning.
A skewed conveyor is incorporated which ensures a consistent positioning for boxes of all sizes. This also makes it very easy to align the solution at the end of an existing conveyor line without the need to perform any interconnection.
There are two palletizing zones accepting pallets up to 48in. x 40in. in size. The two zones provide for a pallet transfer on one zone while palletize continues in the second zone. The pallets are located with sensors to ensure they are properly located for loading.
The collaborative robot can be tooled with a pneumatic or electric gripper designed to suit your specific application and can handle parcels up to 40 lbs. in weight.
This solution is highly mobile and can be relocated throughout your facility as desired.
Area scanners can be incorporated for faster processing speeds.
Vertical lifts are available for taller pallet stack heights
