Company Overview
ABB´s Packaging Offer
ABB has the market’s broadest offer of robots specifically designed for packaging automation. These include robots for picking, packing and palletising. In addition they provide a wide range of standard 6-axis robots which allows them to meet the demands of most packaging industry applications.
What’s more, ABB’s unique packaging software, including vision technology and conveyor tracking, facilitates continuous production flows and packing on-the-fly. Just what you need for efficient handling of food and beverages, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, electronics or personal care products.
ABB´s Value Providers
ABB’s Authorised Value Provider Program is designed to provide you with the tools and information needed to succeed in an expanding market for robot-based automation. ABB has established a global network of approved companies, including system integrators machine builders and consultants. They not only have long experience of integrating ABB products into production processes but also share their values and focus on your satisfaction above all else. As their value providers, they benefit from their training and access to their knowledge and information resources, making them as well-equipped to work with ABB products and systems as they are themselves.
Products:
This is an area in which ABB services a multitude of products, applications and packaging line set-ups. Frozen food, bakery and confectionery, ice cream, meat and fish, cheese, pet food, medical products, shampoo and perfume bottles are a few examples. Their IRB 360 is the first 2nd generation delta robot – FlexPicker.
In the packing stage of the packaging, robot automation offers easy integration, increased flexibility and high reliability. Top loading of boxes, unloading and mixing, and feeding of products to end loaders or film wrappers is easily handled by ABB’s compact 4-axis IRB 260. A robot designed and optimized for packing applications with a payload of up to 30 kg.
Placing boxes, trays, bags, bottles or other items on a pallet seems easy enough. But, when you are dealing with the rigorous demands of multiple feeder lines, quick box-pattern changes and high up-time, nothing compares to robot-based automation. The IRB 460 is the world’s faster palletising robot known on the market. The 4-axis IRB 460 features a 110-kilogram capacity plus a reach of 2.4 metres.
ABB’s SCARA family is designed for a variety of general-purpose applications requiring fast, repeatable and articulate point-to-point movements such as tray and case loading applications. Our SCARA family of robots is ideal for customers requiring rapid cycle times, high precision and high reliability.
ABB has recently released its new range of YuMi collaborative robots, which can work safely alongside humans on a wide range of tasks, including pick-and-place applications within the packaging industry.
Other features and benefits include:
- The compact robot is made with lightweight parts, making YuMi portable and redeployable at will. It also minimizes floor space needs.
- YuMi is able to replicate the same skill as a human assembly worker at speeds of 1,500mm per second and with a reach of 559mm. It can also process two tasks at the same time.
- Designed to be inherently safe, YuMi has no pinch points and can work without barriers, cages or zones.
