Robotic Palletizing Systems in Massachusetts & New England

Cobot Palletizing or Industrial Robot Palletizing?

​

We build both. The right choice comes down to case weight, speed and how much space you have.

​

​

​

Cobot Palletizers

Collaborative robot palletizers are compact, quick to install and easy to run. In many layouts they can work behind area scanners instead of a full fence, based on a proper risk assessment. They're a strong fit for plants starting their first automation project.

• Built on Universal Robots UR20 and UR30 cobots, lifting up to 25 kg (55 lb) and 35 kg (77 lb)

• Vention modular frames, lift columns and MachineMotion controls

• Single or dual pallet stations, so you can swap a full pallet without stopping the line

• Operators build new pallet patterns on a touchscreen in minutes, without a programmer

• Small footprint that fits where a person used to stand

• Can be moved to another line later

Best for: light to medium cases, moderate line speeds, frequent changeovers and tight floor space.

Industrial Robot Palletizers

When you need more speed, heavier payloads or multiple lines feeding one cell, a guarded industrial robot palletizer is the right tool. These systems run inside fencing with interlocked gates, light curtains and safety-rated controls.

• High payloads for heavy cases, bags, bundles and full layers

• Faster cycle rates for high-volume lines

• Multi-line and multi-SKU palletizing from one robot

• Layer pads, slip sheets, pallet dispensers and stretch-wrap integration

• Full safety design, including guarding, risk assessment and safety PLC

• Robot selected to match your application and your plant's standards [or name your robot brand here]

Best for: heavy products, high throughput, 24/7 operation and bag palletizing.

Complete End-of-Line Automation

A palletizer is only as good as what feeds it. We handle the whole end of your line:

• Infeed and accumulation conveyors

• Case orientation and case turning

• Pallet dispensers and slip sheet placement

• Stretch wrapper and labeler integration

• PLC, HMI and plant network integration

• Safety fencing, light curtains and area scanners

• Custom grippers: vacuum, clamp, fork and bag grippers

Why Manufacturers Choose Ames Electrical for Robotic Palletizing

• Controls experts since 1992. Most robot integrators hand off the electrical work. We are the electrical team. Design, programming, panels and field wiring all stay in one shop.

• UL-listed control panels, built in-house. Your palletizer's control panel is built and labeled in our UL 508A panel shop in Greenfield, MA.

• Licensed master electricians in MA, NH and VT. We can handle installation and power on site, so you're not coordinating another contractor.

• Local support that shows up. We're in Western Massachusetts, not across the country. Service plans, spare parts and remote access keep your line running.

• Tested before it ships. Every system is built and run in our shop with your product before installation, so startup at your plant is fast.

How a Robotic Palletizing Project Works

• Free on-site assessment. We review your line, products, rates, pallet patterns and floor space.

• Layout and quote. You get a cell layout, cycle-time estimate and a clear, fixed quote.

• Engineering and build. We design, build and program the system in our shop.

• Factory acceptance test. You see it run before it leaves.

• Installation and training. We install, commission and train your operators and maintenance team.

• Ongoing support. Preventative maintenance, critical spares and remote troubleshooting.
