PalDesigner®: configuration and simulation tool for palletizing solutions 12/09/2012
PalDesigner®, offers a new capacity to simulate, test and validate the configuration of a palletizing solution and its future developments, in particular in terms of new formats to be handled. This software solution is used in the pre-contracting and design phases by the technical teams of the Palletizing Business Unit in Saint-Laurent-sur-Sèvre (former Newtec site) as well as throughout the machine life cycle by the end user.At the start of a project, PalDesigner® participates in defining and calibrating the appropriate technical solution through the stages of calculation, speed validation and 3D simulation of the working principle. In addition, the end user can create new formats by entering directly the palletizing data (product dimensions, type of pallets, palletizing patterns, etc.) allowing [...]
PR Palletizer: Highly sensitive gripping head safety mechanism 12/09/2012
Derived from the legendary expertise of Saint-Laurent-sur-Sèvre, the gripping head and safety mechanism combine highly specialized technologies to detect abnormal effort on products or gripping tooling. This system stops the robot trajectory within a very short lapse of time whilst avoiding any damage to the products or machine, considerably improving package protection in the event of an incident.
Collaborative robotics: a 100% interactive human/machine relationship 11/09/2012
The PR robot palletizer, integrates risk-free machine operation that is 100% collaborative between the operator and the robot, without stopping the flow. The PR is a 2-station robot palletizing unit. This new version integrates a solution for 100% interactive machine operation. The position of the operator in relation to the robot triggers the machine to slow down, then stop. Laser scanners continually analyze the position of the operator in the enclosure in order to automatically adjust the robot speed.This system is auto-activated as soon as the operator enters the enclosure. The door slides alternately so as to only block the station where loading is being carried out, leaving clear and direct access to the second station for interventions such as [...]
