Automated palletizing

The automatic palletizing solution for the food company HKScan consists of a number of light-duty conveyors, lifts, pallet conveyors, transfer carts, pallet wrapper and robot palletizer.

Challenges:

HKScan faced a challenging automation process due to the complex mix of products in various carriers combined with high volumes and limited available space. The company needed to:

  • Streamline dispatch
  • Increase production volume
  • Establish better ergonomics 

Solutions Implemented:

HKScan chose to invest in an automatic palletizing solution from Körber. This included:

  • Four palletizing robots
  • Light duty conveyors
  • Lifts
  • Pallet conveyors
  • Transfer carts
  • Pallet wrapper

Due to the new equipment from Körber, our production unit at Vinderup has achieved higher palletizing efficiency and has thus saved staffing costs. Furthermore, we have eliminated monotonous, repetitive work tasks and have thus also improved the working environment significantly. The new equipment is integrated with our production’s IT systems and contributes to ensure that we have full product traceability.
