Automated machine loading

ESS Technologies integrates a Fanuc LR Mate mini robot with ESS custom-designed end-of-arm tooling to create the TaskMate™ robotic loading system, suitable for automating machine loading at the infeed.

Custom end-of-arm tooling can be designed to handle most any type of product, such as ampoules, syringes, bottles, tubes, etc., allowing system to robotically load machine infeeds on thermoform blister packagers, cartoners, wrappers, and other types of packaging equipment. Quick-release connections allow the robotic end effector to be removed or installed in seconds, providing fast changeover time.
