Food Accessory Packaging using UR10 & RG6 Gripper

This application case features an automated stacking solution for food accessory packaging, utilizing the Universal Robots UR10 and the OnRobot RG6 gripper. The system is designed to handle over 1,000 different types of accessories, neatly stacking them according to preset quantities to streamline the final boxing process. By automating these auxiliary tasks, the solution significantly reduces the total time required for packaging operations.

Components

Robot	Robot: Universal Robots UR10 Type: 6-axis articulated collaborative robot Payload: 10kg Reach: 1,300mm (Horizontal) Weight: 33.5kg Repeatability: ±0.05mm (Spec adjustment: standard UR10 repeatability is ±0.05mm) Protection Rating: IP54 Gripper: OnRobot RG6 (Multi-purpose flexible gripper)

Workflow

STEP 1.	Infeed: Food accessories are fed into the system.
STEP 2.	Identification: The barcode reader recognizes the product type and information.
STEP 3.	Handling: The robot picks up the product and stacks it in the designated area.
STEP 4.	Alignment: The stacked products are precisely aligned to facilitate easy boxing.
