Tekpak Automation will demonstrate the benefits of robotics for manufacturers with a live working demonstration of a pick-and-place cell on stand A15 in hall 16 at interpack.

Tekpak’s team will be on hand at interpack to show the firm’s portfolio of automated packaging solutions. The centrepiece will be the TD3/R Series – a three-axis robotic pick-and-place cell suitable for loading or stacking products into trays, cases, cartons, a thermoformer or a flow-wrapper infeed.

Useful in cleanroom environments or where space is limited, the compact automated system offers rapid size change capability and a quick-change gripper for multiple formats. Highly accurate thanks to robot positional accuracy of +/- 0.1mm and position tracking using vision control, the system also offers manufacturers product control, gentle handling and safety functions.

“Rising energy costs, labour shortages and increasing operational pressure are putting significant strain on manufacturers’ margins, and many are being forced to rethink how their lines perform,” says Frankie Rose, technical sales manager at Tekpak. “Our accurate, reliable and modular automation solutions are helping customers reduce operating costs while improving OEE.”

Beyond pick-and-place, Tekpak supports a range of applications, from cartoning and case packing to full packaging lines, with turnkey integration available where required.
