Palletizing is one of the most critical stages at the end of the production line. Although it is often perceived as a simple process, in practice it involves occupational risks, production bottlenecks, and hidden operational costs. For many years this process has been handled using traditional systems: manual palletizing, semi‑automatic solutions, or low‑flexibility dedicated machines.
Automation and industrial robotics present themselves as a key solution to increase companies’ efficiency and productivity. However, the initial investment in these technologies is significant, leading many organizations to wonder if it will really be worth it. Ensuring a positive return on investment (ROI) is not an easy task, but with proper planning and constant
Collaborative robotics, or “cobots,” has revolutionized the industry by enabling safe and efficient interaction between humans and robots. Their strategic implementation can optimize processes and generate a significant return on investment (ROI) in reduced timeframes. 1. Initial investment and associated costs • Cobot cost: Prices vary depending on the capabilities and specifications of the robot.
