Robotic Palletizing with Vertical Lift

We take pride in ensuring reliable and efficient supply chains to meet the specific needs of our valued customers across various sectors Our steel operations revolve around our six electric arc furnace (EAF) steel mills and numerous value-added coating operations, enabling us to handle roughly 13 million tons of steel shipping. We take pride in offering one of the most diversified portfolios of value-added products within the domestic steel industry.
Furthermore, we operate under a circular manufacturing model, which prioritizes the production of high-quality, lower-carbon-emission steel using EAF technology, where recycled ferrous scrap serves as the primary input. This approach establishes Fabrik as an EAF steelmaking and circular manufacturing industry leader. The tireless efforts of our innovative teams in implementing climate change initiatives will further elevate our standards for sustainable steel production in the future.

VIT successfully implemented a fully automated robotic palletizing system designed to handle cartons with precision, safety, and efficiency. The solution utilized an industrial robot to palletize cartons while ensuring uninterrupted forklift access and optimized floor logistics.

Each carton was first inspected via an integrated weighing station. Cartons outside the acceptable weight range were automatically diverted and removed. Approved cartons continued along the line to a vertical lift system, elevating them above forklift operating zones to maintain a safe and efficient workflow.

More Features

At the palletizing station, a second vertical lift brought the cartons down to the robot pick point, where the robot executed precise stacking on pallets supplied by an automatic pallet feeder unit. Once a pallet was completed, it was automatically transferred to a stretch wrap unit for securing. The wrapped pallet was then ready for collection by a forklift, completing the fully automated cycle.

This installation showcases VIT’s ability to deliver integrated, high-performance robotic solutions that streamline operations, increase productivity, and ensure safe interaction within dynamic industrial environments.

Applications & Grades

They are a base material in applications that do not require any formability beyond minimal bending and/or roll-forming.
