Washdown pick and place robot cell for carton, case, and tray packing
The Paloma-D2 robot is capable of picking and orienting 290 products per minute from the line into secondary packaging.
The stainless steel construction of the Paloma-D2 meets all current hygiene standards and regulations for food processing. Additionally, its high ingress protection class of IP 65 makes it ideal for deep frozen food applications. The new Gemini 3.0 Software allows simulation of new production processes and products on a virtual machine. A 3-D view enables operators to adjust and optimize pick-and-place patterns and other settings for each product in an intuitive manner. All individual parameters can be saved and recalled if required. The software and tool-free changeable form sets, like end-effectors, guarantee changeover time of less than five minutes.
