Frequently asked questions

How much does a cobot palletizer cost?

An installed Robotiq PAL cell typically runs $99,000 to $150,000, depending on the application. The Knotts Company quotes Robotiq cobot palletizers for plants in NJ, NY and Eastern PA, and payload, stacking height, infeed and options such as a linear axis set where a project falls in that range.

Robotiq's free Palletizing Fit Tool also estimates a price range and payback period. Knotts can turn the Fit Tool output into a firm quote after an application review.

What is the ROI or payback period for a robotic palletizer?

A Robotiq cobot palletizer typically pays back within 1 to 2 years, depending on shifts, labor costs and throughput. The savings come from lower labor and hiring costs and higher output. The Knotts Company helps NJ, NY and Eastern PA plants estimate their own payback with its free robot payback calculator.

The calculator emails estimated payback in months plus 1-, 3- and 5-year net gain.

How long does it take to get and install a Robotiq palletizer?

Robotiq palletizers from The Knotts Company have a ready-made 14-day delivery lead time, and installation takes 3 to 4 days, including on-site training, because components arrive pre-connected and pre-programmed. Knotts supports deliveries and startups across NJ, NY and Eastern PA.

Robotiq's fully assembled PAL Ready cell is advertised to install in 3 days.

What is the difference between Robotiq PAL Series PE, AX and PAL Ready?

The Knotts Company offers three Robotiq palletizing formats. The PE Series mounts the cobot on a pedestal and suits sites with fewer pallet-height variations. The AX Series adds a 7th-axis linear lift for the most reach and fastest cycles. PAL Ready is a fully assembled cell built for rapid installs and quick redeployment.

Robotiq says PAL Ready can be redeployed anchorless in under 10 minutes and supports washdown zoning for food and beverage lines.

How heavy a box and how high a stack can a cobot palletizer handle?

Robotiq palletizing solutions sold by The Knotts Company are listed with lifting capacities of 25, 40 or 60 lbs, cycle rates of 10 or 13 picks per minute, and stacking heights of 60, 84, 108 or 118 inches, depending on configuration. Options include a linear axis and a fixed or adjustable pedestal.

Heavier cases may call for a larger cobot such as the Universal Robots UR20 (20 kg payload, 1750 mm reach) or UR30.

Do cobot palletizers need safety fencing?

Often not. Robotiq's modular Safety Packages, available through The Knotts Company, are designed to keep palletizing cells open without bulky fences while covering tall stacks, higher speeds and other scenarios identified in your risk assessment. A proper risk assessment is still required for every application in NJ, NY or Eastern PA.

At Raumland GmbH, a Robotiq PE20 with a UR20 palletizes between two pallets without protective enclosures, so an operator swaps one pallet while the cobot keeps working on the other.

Can a cobot palletizer handle multiple SKUs and box sizes?

Yes. Robotiq palletizers supplied by The Knotts Company handle a wide variety of box sizes and pallet heights. Robotiq's PowerPick Multi vacuum gripper adapts to different boxes without gripper changeovers, and the PAL software lets operators clone and reuse recipes. Knotts reviews your SKU mix before quoting.

Raumland GmbH, which bottles 2,500 different wines a year, uses one Robotiq cell to handle different carton types and patterns.

The Robotiq system was very simple to use. From the time we received the machine until we used it... 5 days. A week. Over the last two months, we have produced with the solution every day. And every day the workers are very happy.
Antoine Bruno,  President, Alliora
The cobot perfectly reflects what we need. It is a flexible machine, compact, quick to set up, and, ultimately, affordable. We were able to automate a task that was extremely tedious. No one complains about back pain anymore. At least not from palletizing.
