Palamatic Process SackBot Series 200: Robotic Depalletizing and Automatic Sack Emptying

What this video shows

Palamatic Process introduces the SackBot Series 200, a robot with 3D vision that picks sacks from pallets and feeds them to an automatic bag emptying unit.

What the footage shows

A product presentation of the SackBot Series 200 robot by a Palamatic Process engineer, with the robot and its 3D vision system on screen.

Process challenge

Picking sacks from pallets by hand is the step that keeps an otherwise automated bag emptying line dependent on operators, and irregular stacks make simple automation unreliable.

Demonstrated solution

A robot with onboard 3D vision that recognizes sacks of several materials in irregular configurations, picks them and feeds an automatic bag emptying unit.

Technical overview

Key features

  • •Two series: Series 100 empties directly over a hopper, Series 200 feeds automatic bag emptying units.
  • •Onboard 3D vision analysing bags against more than 100 criteria, including logos or figures for recipe selection.
  • •Compatible with kraft, polyethylene, polypropylene and woven bags.
  • •Orients each sack the same way before it enters the automatic cutting unit.

Typical applications

  • •Recipe-driven intake lines that pick specific bagged ingredients from mixed pallets.
  • •Plants that already run an automatic bag emptier and want to remove manual depalletizing.

About this video

Robotic sack handling has two halves: finding and gripping the bag on the pallet, and opening and emptying it. In this video a Palamatic Process engineer presents the SackBot Series 200, the robot that takes care of the first half and hands the sacks to an automatic emptying unit.

According to the manufacturer, the SackBot range is split into two series. Series 100 empties bags directly over a hopper with a choice of cutting systems; Series 200 depalletizes and feeds automatic bag emptying units. An onboard 3D vision system recognizes the bags even in irregular stacks, and Palamatic states that it is compatible with kraft paper, polyethylene, polypropylene and woven bags.

The vision system analyses the bags against more than 100 criteria. The manufacturer says it can identify a specific logo or figure on a bag, which allows a selection of bags for recipe making, and that it can orient every sack the same way before it enters the cutting unit. The video is a short presentation rather than a full cycle demonstration.
