Bag handling and cutting is made by a robot, which guarantees high production times.
This system (that is basically a bags dumping machine) can guarantee a high productivity and reliability because it's based on an anthropomorphic robot .
An anthropomorphic robot equipped with an appropriate gripping device can pick a bag up to 50 kg, cut its packaging and empty the contents into a hopper in efficient and productive way (robotic automatic bags dumping machine).
Robotic palletization system, designed to handle bags, has then modified to handle palletised boxes and drums as well, in order to quickly and safely put the contents into the process.
In particular, bags depalletiser is the natural evolution of the equipments developed for bags semiautomatic cutting. The robotic island is composed of:
This system is especially suitable for those working conditions where the bags number to be cut or the high number of different products to be put into the process according to a recipe, suggest an automatic system.
The system cleaning is easy (production change requires only hopper aspiration) and by installing more hoppers, cleaning is no more necessary !
The system is modular and can be configured to handle from 1 to 20 entry roller conveyors and as many emptying stations.
Robot can be equipped with dedicated gripping devices to handle :
Identification of the pallets size can be done by :
Identification method is chosen according to the specific process requirements.
System is suitable for managing single bag, bags stock, batch and dosing, even gravimetric.
Weighing system can check dosed product quantity.
Bar code reading system allows to check the products put into the system.
When the production schedules permit, it’s also possible to use the robot for palletization by automatically replacing the gripping device
