The Advantages of the Robotic Pick and Pack System

Feb 18, 2014

Robotic pick and place systems bring amazing speeds and precision to a manufacturing line. Pick and pack robotic systems can pick up one or several objects and pack them into a box, carton, tray, or other type of container.

While there are sev­er­al parts of pro­duc­tion that are impor­tant, espe­cial­ly when con­struct­ing a prod­uct, there are also impor­tant process­es that come at the end of the line, when the prod­ucts are com­plete­ly assem­bled and ready to be sent to the con­sumer. When man­u­fac­tur­ers choose to auto­mate these process­es with pick and place robot sys­tems, they can be sure that they have made an advan­ta­geous decision.

One of the best advan­tages of the robot pick and pack­er? The speed. A pick and pack robot­ic sys­tem is going to pick up an object, or many objects, and pack them into a box, car­ton, tray or some oth­er type of con­tain­er, at a much faster rate than a human work­er, improv­ing pro­duc­tion speed sev­er­al times over. Along with speed, robot­ic pick and pack sys­tems also have the advan­tage of pre­ci­sion, some­thing that is para­mount when pack­ing items up for trans­port. You have to get the right items in the right box­es, right? What bet­ter than the accu­ra­cy that only comes with a robot­ic system?

Anoth­er advan­tage is the decrease of down­time that comes with switch­ing to pick and pack robots. Pick­ing and pack­ing is tedious and can be injury induc­ing. Work­ers can get rep­e­ti­tion injuries that can slow their process or cause them to take time off work. Robot pick and pack sys­tems do not have the same type of issues. They do not get injuries from their work, and they do not need days off, breaks or sick time. They can vir­tu­al­ly run 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. This saves com­pa­nies time and mon­ey on their pro­duc­tion processes.
