Turnkey Robotics for Food-Safe Product Handling & End-of-Line Packaging
We engineer and build food-safe robotic solutions designed for the unique demands of food and beverage production. Our compact, high-performance systems seamlessly integrate into existing workflows, optimizing throughput while maintaining the highest safety standards. Whether automating pick-and-place operations, case erecting, case packing, palletizing, or full end-of-line packaging, our flexible, scalable solutions help meet production targets, reduce labor dependency, and ensure food safety compliance.
Increase Throughput with High-Speed Automation
Our automation solutions eliminate manual bottlenecks and inefficiencies, maintaining consistent production flow while meeting demand spikes.
- Automate pick-and-place operations to handle hot trays, and packaged goods with speed and precision.
- Streamline case erecting and packing to ensure uninterrupted flow in secondary food production lines.
- Optimize end-of-line packaging by integrating automated sealing, labeling, and palletizing for shipment-ready products.
- Ensure continuous material movement with customized AGVs and AMRs, reducing delays in ingredient supply and transport of finished goods.
Maximize Repeatability & Precision with Advanced Robotics
Our automation solutions ensure precise, repeatable product handling, packaging, and palletizing while eliminating human error.
- Enhance accuracy with vision-guided pick-and-place robotics, adapting to product variations in size, weight, and orientation.
- Improve case packing precision with advanced robotic control and custom end-effectors, minimizing misaligned or damaged products.
- Ensure stable pallet loads with intelligent palletizing systems that prevent shifting, crushing, and shipment-related damage.
- Maintain packaging consistency and quality with automated case sealing, labeling, and integrated inspection systems, including metal detection and checkweighers.
- Improve traceability with automation that tracks products to the individual box or pallet, ensuring faster and more accurate recall identification.
Enhance Workplace Safety with Automated Handling
Our automation solutions minimize repetitive motion injuries, burns, and strain-related accidents, enhancing compliance with workplace safety standards.
- Eliminate high-risk manual tasks by automating hot tray handling, case erecting, and pallet stacking.
- Improve ergonomics by replacing repetitive lifting, pushing, and bending with customized robotic systems.
- Reduce forklift-related accidents with automated material transport solutions, including AGVs and AMRs.
- Deploy collaborative robots (cobots) safely alongside workers without caging or guarding, improving efficiency while maintaining safety compliance.
Ensure Food Safety & Durability with Corrosion-Resistant Designs
Our automation systems meet the highest food safety and hygiene standards, ensuring contamination-free operations in hot and cold environments and non-separate washdown areas.
- Maintain hygiene and durability with stainless steel machine frames to withstand corrosive cleaning agents and humidity or overspray from nearby washdown areas.
- Ensure compliance in high-temperature and cold storage environments, including meat packing and refrigerated processing.
- Improve food safety by reducing human contact with food products, minimizing contamination risks.
Adapt & Scale with Compact, Flexible & Modular Automation
Designed for space-constrained food production facilities, our modular robotic systems allow for fast deployment, easy reconfiguration, and seamless expansion.
- Maximize floor space with compact case erectors, case packers, and palletizers that eliminate the need for additional guarding.
- Increase flexibility with portable work cells, allowing pick-and-place robotics to move between lines as needed.
- Scale production seamlessly with modular automation and interchangeable tooling for new SKUs and packaging formats.
- Easily switch between case and pallet configurations with a user-friendly interface that allows on-the-fly adjustments.
- Integrate effortlessly into existing food production lines, minimizing downtime and ensuring a smooth transition to automation.
