Palletizing Squares, layer on layer

The robot picks cases at the end of the conveyor and stacks them layer by layer. Each layer interlocks with the one below, so the load holds together in transit.

Palletizing process path plate: the tool path traced many times over (squares, layer on layer). The open circle marks the start, the filled dot the end.

Process sequence

One path, five steps.

Scroll down and each step lights up in copper on the plate.

Palletizing sequence, plan view: the same cell seen from above. The numbers match the steps.

  1. 1. Infeed

    Packed cases arrive on the conveyor and stop at the pick point.

  2. 2. Orient

    Cases are turned or paired to match the layer pattern.

  3. 3. Pick

    A vacuum gripper lifts the case by its top.

  4. 4. Place

    It places each case to the pattern and lays a slip sheet when a layer is full.

  5. 5. Outfeed

    The full pallet rolls out and an empty one rolls in.

Design points

Designing the cell: three things first.

  1. 1. The pattern holds the load

    Interlocking layers keep the load stable before it is wrapped. Hangyeol Studio builds the pattern from the case and pallet sizes.

  2. 2. How many cases per pick

    Picking one case or two at a time changes throughput more than anything else. We size the gripper first, from case weight and dimensions.

  3. 3. Guard the pallet exits

    Light curtains guard the forklift exits. When someone steps in, work on that side stops.

Products

Palletizing is hard on the back: the same heavy case, thousands of times a day. Hand it to a robot and people move on to pallet changes and line supervision.

The HG-P180-31 is a four-axis parallel-link arm, so the wrist always stays level. The gripper never tilts, which keeps vacuum pads and clamps simple. Put a pallet station on each side and it keeps stacking while one is swapped.

For lower-volume lines, the HG-C25-17 cobot fits. It takes little floor space and sits on a single pedestal at the end of the conveyor.
