In a strategic move that redefines industrial automation, FANUC UK and Reeco Automation have forged an alliance to integrate FANUC’s innovative CRX collaborative robot series into Reeco’s RB range of robotic palletizers. This collaboration marks a significant milestone in addressing a growing industry challenge: the shortage of manual labor, particularly in the food and beverage sector.
By incorporating the CRX-20iA (20 kg) and CRX-30iA (30 kg) models into Reeco’s palletizing systems, the partnership offers accessible and efficient end-of-line automation. The initiative targets manufacturers of all scales—including small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs)—providing a direct path to improved operational efficiency, reduced energy consumption, and significantly lowered production costs.
FANUC’s CRX collaborative robots are celebrated for their ease of programming, built-in safety features, energy efficiency, and low maintenance requirements. These benefits are further enhanced by extended warranties, ensuring a sound long-term investment. Through the integration of FANUC’s proven reliability and performance, Reeco not only elevates its RB series but also lays a solid foundation for its export strategy, delivering a robust, globally recognized solution to international markets.
This partnership represents a strategic integration of advanced technologies aimed at meeting the demands of Industry 4.0—where flexible and safe automation is paramount. By reducing reliance on labor-intensive and physically demanding tasks, FANUC and Reeco are enabling a shift in supply chain efficiency, allowing businesses to focus more on innovation and sustainable development.
