Robotic system for slicing and assembling stacks of cheese for subsequent packing
Project purpose
To increase capacity, ensure operational stability, meet high hygiene requirements in food production by using a special series robot, reduce labor costs.
Key operations
Preparation of processed cheese stack, delivery of the product in the set quantity to the flow-packer
Project description
Robotic system for processed cheese preparation, slicing and packing.
Two industrial robots are used in the system.
The first one forms stacks of processed cheese — 5 stacks of 30 slices each, and the second one transfers the required quantity to the output conveying system or loads a temporary storage magazine for the stacker when the flow-packer is not in use, ensuring uninterrupted operation of the main equipment.
A special project feature was the performance requirements for the equipment to comply with hygiene standards for food production, the high speed of delivery and the high requirements of product consumers to the appearance of the product.
Implementation result
Output capacity of 1000 kg of product per hour or 0.35 sec per stack
