Recommended Use Cases

Pharmaceutical Box Palletizing Using the Hyundai Robotics YS080L 💊

Process Overview This solution is a packaging process that uses the Hyundai Robotics YS080L to palletize pharmaceutical cartons onto pallets and perform wrapping (stretch wrapping). As an optimized turnkey packaging solution delivered by KT, it can be deployed with a low initial implementation cost, and by integrating with KT's smart-factory platform Factory Makers, you can introduce a smart-factory system alongside the automation cell. Through this solution, automated palletizing of heavy beverage cartons improved handling speed/throughput and helped prevent operator musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs).

Material Handling Automation using Yaskawa GP180

This application case features an automated stacking solution utilizing the Yaskawa GP180. The system automates the stacking of two different types of products onto their respective pallets. Once a pallet is fully loaded, an operator triggers a switch to signal for forklift transport. The products retain residual internal heat, making manual handling hazardous. Additionally, with each unit weighing approximately 1.5kg, the repetitive nature of the task caused significant musculoskeletal pain for workers, leading to difficulties in labor recruitment.

Automation Solution using an All Picker Gripper, Featuring Automated Part Assembly and Processing Lines

Process Overview This deployment is an automation solution for part assembly and processing lines using an All Picker Gripper. As the name suggests, the All Picker Gripper is designed to pick a wide range of objects, and it can perform stable picking even when the workpiece has holes or an irregular shape.
