Kawasaki Robotics puts the case for space-saver robot palletising systems at TOTAL

Kawasaki Robotics is using The Total Exhibition to demonstrate how an area, not much larger than two euro pallets, can cost effectively house a high throughput palletising system.  Using its compact RD80N palletising robot and ‘standard’ ancillary components, the system will illustrate a strong case to automate any end of line process where there is limited space available.

Press invitation to the event Robotics Innovation Challenge: The individual's needs comes first!

Robotdalen is a Swedish robotics cluster enabling commercial success of new ideas and research within robotics and automation. We believe all new robot solutions should spring from the needs and demands of the individual and provide improved quality of life, increased security or saving jobs within the manufacturing industry. On April 25, we'll discuss robot solutions of tomorrow and showcase innovative new products for both the health care sector and industry. Welcome to the event Robotics Innovation Challenge in Eskilstuna, Sweden on April 25!
