Robotic palletizing
Boxes, bags and loads stacked on the pallet without anyone lifting weight.
Ideal for: End of line with packed products and repeating pallet patterns.
- More orderly material flows
- Less repetitive manual handling
- Integration with the line's production pace
What it includes
What a cell comes with
Palletizing robot
Fast and high-payload to move each load or a whole layer.
Custom gripper
Vacuum cups, forks or clamps depending on box, bag or tray.
Conveyors
Product infeed and full pallet outfeed.
Stacking patterns
Each product with its stacking pattern stored in the program.
What it is for
What gets automated
We design pick, transfer, sorting, and palletizing applications around product formats, production rates, and available space.
- Palletizing and depalletizing
- Product loading and unloading
- Transfer between workstations
Clear expectations
What it can and cannot do
It can
- Build stable, consistent pallets.
- Change product by selecting another pattern.
- Prevent injuries from lifting weight all day.
It cannot (without help)
- Pick deformed or open loads without a gripper designed for them.
- Work without an orderly area for pallet infeed and outfeed.
- Mix random products on the same pallet without vision or extra logic.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What data is needed to assess a palletizing solution?
Product formats and weights, pallet pattern, production rate, infeed and outfeed spaces, and package type.
A 6-axis robot or a dedicated machine?
It depends on product variety, rate, and space; a robot offers more flexibility for mixed formats and pattern changes.
Does it integrate with the existing line?
Yes: conveyors, signals, safety, and removal of completed pallets are defined within the integration scope.
