A Depalletizer is a device that automatically sorts, moves, and stacks cases of goods or products onto a pallet. These machines are typically found at the end of a production line. Automatic depalletizing is beneficial for fast, frequent shipping.
Universal Depalletizers offer load stability, accuracy, and speed of operation. Additionally, they enable the simultaneous movement of additional loads. It takes a lot of time and money to manually assemble pallets with boxes on them. Workers may experience unusual stress as a result.
The row-forming machine was created in the early 50s as a means of avoiding this procedure. On the pallet, the row-forming machine organized the items into tidy rows. Future advancements in computer and robotic technology greatly improved palletizing.
Robotic depalletizers can be fully or partially automated. They typically occupy the space between a pallet dispenser and a belt line carrying incoming goods.
The product is lifted by a hydraulic robotic arm and placed onto a pallet with care. While only being able to lift one item at a time, robotic depalletizers are faster than manual stacking and are not as prone to accident or wear and tear.
Conveyors and a product-receiving feed area are used by both types of machines. Low-level load products from the ground and high-level load products from above are what set the two apart from one another.
Products and packages enter on conveyors in both situations, where they are continuously moved to and sorted on the pallets. Whether automatic or semi-automatic, these depalletizing procedures are both quicker than robotic depalletizing.
The Global Universal Depalletizer market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
The logistics, e-commerce, healthcare, and consumer packaged goods industries may now handle difficult depalletizing operations with the help of ABB’s new “ABB Robotic Universal Depalletizer” technology.
With the help of machine vision software, ABB’s new solution can instantly evaluate a number of box types, allowing customers to process a variety of loads effectively with little engineering work and little setup time.
The growth of new sales channels including omnichannel, direct-to-consumer (D2C), and e-commerce is being attributed to changes in customer behavior.
ABB’s Robotic Universal Depalletizer helps to fill this demand by having the capacity to depalletize boxes stacked in a number of configurations from single and mixed pallets, enabling faster and more precise handling of a wide range of items ready for the following stage in the distribution process.
