This palletizing automation solution utilizes the ABB IRB660, a dedicated palletizing robot, to automatically stack six heavy beverage boxes (approx. 30kg) at once onto a pallet.
The system performs accurate stacking tasks in a short amount of time, taking less than 3 minutes to stack 9 layers of 12 boxes each (total of 108 boxes).
