TRAPO: Dancing with Robots
Under the motto “Dancing with Robots”, TRAPO will be demonstrating live crate and carton handling to perfection at FACHPACK from September 23 to 25 in Hall 3C at Stand 551! More than 33 years ago, the successful company from Westmünsterland made its debut at FACHPACK: It was the beginning of a very special success story!
This year’s live performance will showcase the handling of recyclable crates and cartons weighing up to 35 kg – delivere on transverse and longitudinal pallets. They are used in almost all industries and are an integral part of sustainable supply chains – from the food industry to the automotive industry.
Their standardized design features are equally at home in highly automated production processes and sophisticated warehouse management.
TRAPO shows the synchronous interaction of two articulated robots – a cobot (TCP series) and a high-performance model, connected to conveyor technology and an autonomous mobile robot (AMR) from our partner OMRON and a unique AMR Top Module from our supplier MOVELI. OMRON will also be exhibiting in Hall 3C, Booth 122.
The cobot is equipped with an easy-to-maintain suction gripper, while the HRS series (High-Speed Robot System) robot is fitted with a fork gripper. The task: to alternately palletize and depalletize crates and cartons. A task that requires maximum precision when stacking the crates precisely one inside the other. Full and empty pallets are changed by a flexible robot that operates autonomously in the smallest of spaces.
Customized automation
In Nuremberg, the company from Gescher-Hochmoor in Westphalia will be presenting itself as a system integrator with its own extensive product portfolio. The compact hardware and software systems developed in the TRAPO technical center and installed worldwide are based on a modular system. Thanks to the modular system, there are numerous possibilities for meeting the individual automation requirements of the packaging industry.
Specialist in a limited space
In addition to stationary conveyor technology, the sales team will also be presenting mobile alternatives to ensure that space can be used flexibly, especially where space is limited. For example, the TRAPO Cobot Palletizer (TCP series) – the performance model for easy entry into automated palletizing. Supplied on just two pallets, the mobile TCP series robot, which can act as a “colleague” without a fence, can be used wherever its palletizing performance is required.
Production processes are optimized by TRAPO’s own multifunctional gripper technology, which increases performance and protects products.
TRAPO Experience Hubs with high practical relevance
In production and intralogistics, TRAPO is a system solution provider in defined market segments – with excellent products and product solutions that meet the needs of end customers, system suppliers (OEM/original equipment manufacturers) and machine builders.
The sales team reflects this expertise in the TRAPO Experience Hubs, exclusive lounges in which interactive presentations provide answers to the top topics of individual automation.
