Columbia/Okura
robotic palletizers are capable of handling of both cases and
pails without the need to change tooling.
Equipped with
a versatile end effector, the robot uses a flexible vacuum-grip
system to adapt to a variety of pail and case sizes. The
palletizers' small footprint makes them easy to integrate into
existing production areas where a single machine can handle up
to four production lines simultaneously.
Like all Columbia/Okura robotic palletizers, the
units are energy-efficient and feature touch-screen interfaces
for user-friendly pattern programming and easy operation. They
include built-in diagnostics and fewer moving parts to ensure
reliability, low maintenance and reduced overall machine wear.
The company is
jointly owned by Columbia Machine and Okura Yusoki of Japan, two
companies with more than 100 years of combined material-handling
experience. Customer service and parts support is located in
the USA. |
