Process layout
This solution automates the process of packing products into boxes and subsequently palletizing them by integrating Epson’s VT6L 6-axis robot, Epson’s T6 SCARA robot, and Vention’s Range Extender with MachineMotion controller.
The Epson T6 SCARA robot efficiently handles the high-speed task of transferring products into boxes. Meanwhile, the Epson VT6L 6-axis robot, mounted on Vention’s Range Extender, performs palletizing across a significantly expanded workspace. This combination allows for a seamless transition from primary packaging to end-of-line palletizing within a single automated cell.

Workflow
| STEP 1. | Infeed: Products are fed into the system for the initial packing stage. |
|---|---|
| STEP 2. | Box Picking: The robot secures and prepares the boxes for loading. |
| STEP 3. | Cross-Unloading (Palletizing): The 6-axis robot stacks the filled boxes onto the pallet using a cross-pattern (interlocking) method for maximum stability. |
Features
Productivity Boost via Efficient Handling
End-to-End Automation: Seamlessly automates the entire process from incasing finished products into paper boxes to final palletizing.
Streamlined Workflow: Eliminates manual intervention between primary packaging and secondary stacking, ensuring a continuous production flow.
Expanded Workspace with Range Extender
Maximize Reach: By integrating Vention’s Range Extender, the robot overcomes its physical reach limitations, allowing it to cover a significantly larger palletizing area and stack higher.
Results
| Key Benefits | Expanded operational reach through the 7th-axis extender.

This solution utilizes two KAWASAKI RS007L robots to automate the process of loading and unloading secondary battery cases onto transfer jigs. It ensures that finished secondary battery cells are automatically and precisely stacked onto the jigs for the next stage of production.
15kg Heavy Insulation Palletizing using Vention 4-Axis Palletizer
This solution automates the transport and stacking of heavy 15kg insulation boxes by positioning a 4-axis palletizer in parallel with the pallets. The project was designed to improve a hazardous work environment where frequent manual handling of heavy insulation led to worker injuries. By integrating an automated conveyor system with Vention's palletizer, the project successfully automated the entire transfer and stacking process, reducing the cycle time to just 15 seconds. Operators can easily control the system and monitor real-time status through Vention's intuitive Palletizer MachineApp.
