Application context
The integration between robotics and conveyors in recent years has brought a much higher level of automation to a variety of packaging applications. The two components work hand-in-hand to deliver a more streamlined, efficient operation with more accuracy and a strong return-on-investment.
Take a look in any modern-day processing or packaging facility, and operators can see automation is the prime driver behind the way products are being produced. There’s no better time to embrace the integration of robotics and conveyors – here’s why:

Design considerations
As robotic technology has grown, so too has its popularity within the packaging industry. New to the scene are smaller, agile collaborative robots, which are designed to safely share a workspace with people. This is opening up new applications that previously didn’t involve any robotic interaction.
Braas works closely with several automation control manufacturers, such as Universal Robots (UR), in designing custom solutions for the packaging industry.
