案例农场通过机器人的倒闭,托盘和输送系统增加新鲜的鸡肉生产
客户问题:
这customer was manually palletizing cases of fresh chicken after sending it to a remote site to be frozen for warehouse storage. In order to speed up the freezing process, special tier sheets were stacked between all layers of all products. The sheets had to be manually removed between layers – and sanitized – before the pallets could be manually palletized for distribution, resulting in excessive amounts of labor and cost.
客户建立了一个新的设施来内部执行所有流程。需要解决方案将新鲜鸡肉从生产转移到可变的保留时间(VRT)Blast Freezer,然后转变为托盘系统以进行仓库分配。一旦冻结,就需要对案件进行播放,并将拉伸包裹在冰箱仓库或装运中。产品还可以从远程站点传递,需要通过相同的高爆和冰柜发送,以播放以进行未来的仓库分配。
Adaptec解决方案:
Adaptec collaborated with numerous partners to design, build, and install a complete turnkey solution, moving product from production/de-palletizing, through the VRT, then to a palletizing system. The project consists of six case conveyor lines that feed the VRT freezer in addition to product conveyed from the de-palletizing cell. One case conveyor line comes out of the VRT to two palletizers. Bar code scanners are located at the infeed of all lines and at discharge to ensure bar code compliance and communicate information to the VRT.
这de-palletizing cell receives full pallets of fresh chicken from a remote facility. Unwrapped pallets are indexed into the cell through a set of safety light curtains. Once the load clears the curtains, another full pallet can be staged on the infeed conveyor. As the pallet load reaches the de-palletizing zone, a FANUC M-410iC/185 robot picks a layer of product with a vacuum end-of-arm tool and places it on a staging conveyor. The cases are oriented through a series of sortation conveyors to ensure labels are in the correct location for transportation into the VRT.
所有指定用于机器人托盘的产品均被运输到prosort MRT上,以分类到适当的托盘厂。产品将被运送到机器人选拔位置,在该位置根据需要进行战略选择。
托盘分配器将托盘释放到航天飞机输送机中,然后在滑板分配器的前面移动到位置。托盘上放置滑板。航天飞机将移至6个机器人托盘线之一,然后运输到托盘线输送机,以一种图案重复,该图案将使所有6条线都有托盘。
这robot will pick cases or rows as needed and build pallets per the defined pallet stack pattern for each SKU. Full pallets will move down the conveyor to the Wulftec stretch wrapper to await forklift pick up.
Results:
- 去除式电池以每分钟20个案例运行。
- 这palletizing system is designed to handle 4 SKUs at any time. Rate of product out of the freezer is 72 cases per 115 seconds. The cell is a dual 4-in, 4-out system with a lane dedicated for manual pallet stacking for product that will have volume suitable for manual palletizing.
- 拉伸包装器每小时包装100个负载。
