When small space meets big goals

Some victories begin with an item demonstration. Others begin with a follow-up. This began with a completely dry active ingredient manufacturing facility in Chile and a worldwide campaign to minimize contamination and human mistake. Yet what made it all click was the launch of the Robotiq AX30 Palletizing Service.

An acquainted confront with a brand-new objective

This client is understood for making sodas– however not at this center. Right here, they create the completely dry active ingredient blends that comprise the secret dishes.

Due to just how delicate those active ingredients are, the firm had a clear regulation:
Automate anywhere feasible to minimize human communication and stop contamination. The less hands in the procedure, the much better.

They likewise wished to reduce human mistake and address ergonomic threats considering that drivers were by hand dealing with 22 kg (50 pound) boxes at the end of the line. Not suitable.

Why currently?

Amusing sufficient, this had not been our very first communication with them. A while back, our companion assisted them release a situation developing application making use of a collective robotic. They liked the simpleness and design versatility. Yet at the time, our palletizing remedy really did not have the haul they required.

Fast-forward a little bit, and we have actually obtained the AX30, which can manage approximately 32kg (70 pound).

A tighter fit than commercial

When I checked out the plant once more, I was fretted. The item is costly, the procedure is exact, and I thought we may be going neck and neck with a commercial robotic.

Yet after that I saw the flooring.

There just had not been sufficient room to set up a typical palletizer. In between the limited design and security problems, it was clear they required something portable– and collective.

Our AX30 version examined every box:
✅ Safe, ergonomic remedy
✅ Compact impact
✅ Manages their haul requires easily
✅ Quick to release
✅ No significant design modifications required

From “not yet” to “allow’s go”

We wound up sealing the deal for 3 AX30 devices. The client was delighted, not just since we might fulfill their requirements, however since the remedy was collective, easy, and currently verified in their setting

Also much better? Our companion is establishing a screen of the AX30 in their very own center. They’ll run client demonstrations and utilize this win to motivate others in the area.

Last ideas

This win had not been concerning examining a box. It had to do with lining up with the client’s wider objectives— cleaner procedures, less threats, and lasting versatility.

And many thanks to our companion, their rely on Robotiq, and the power of the AX30, we transformed a limited room right into a critical release
