Automatic Palletizing & Depalletizing

Dematic Automatic Palletizing and Depalletizing Systems address the need to ship a large volume of varying size and shape cases for direct-to-store delivery. Dematic provides a portfolio of robotic palletizing and depalletizing systems for building rainbow and mixed SKU pallets and roll cages that work faster and more accurately than manual systems.

Benefits of Dematic Automatic Palletizing and Depalletizing Systems

• Minimized Labor Costs: Dematic systems automate operations in harsh environments, performing repetitive and labor-intensive tasks that limit worker productivity. Industrial robots designed for mission-critical applications work around-the-clock without tiring or making mistakes. Dematic software guides the system to build store-friendly and aisle-ready pallets and roll cages, reducing labor needed to restock store shelves.
• Reduced Transportation Costs: Dematic software organizes the palletizing pattern to maximize the number of cases on a pallet, ensuring more product per delivery.
• Reduced Product Damage: Dematic software anticipates factors such as crushability and adjusts the picking operation to preserve product integrity. A variety of end-of-arm grippers, vacuum, and fork-style tooling handle the most delicate and challenging packages. Depending on the application, the system palletizes individual cases or layers of products with slip sheets and automatic wrapping to stabilize loads.
• Improved Accuracy: For palletizing, the vision system scans and tracks each case to ensure accuracy. For depalletizing, the vision system verifies the position and identifies each package for accuracy.
• Scalable for Future Growth: Dematic systems are modular and use non-proprietary, off-the-shelf technologies to make implementation and maintenance of the robotics easier. Plug-and-play architecture enables faster and cost-effective upgrades as technology evolves.
