The efficient handling of packaging cases is a crucial step in many production sectors. In particular, the logistics and manufacturing industries require solutions that can combine precision, speed and safety, without physically straining the operators. Thanks to INDEVA® manipulators, this challenge was successfully met by a major customer in its packaging department, achieving outstanding results.

INDEVA® provided a tailor-made solution, implementing an intelligent manipulator equipped with:

  • Customised gripping system to handle cases of different shapes and materials, the positioning of the suction cups can be adjusted according to the length of the cases.
  • Advanced electronically controlled technology, allowing smooth, precise and effortless movements by the operator.
  • Optimal ergonomics, reducing the risk of physical stress and improving working conditions.

The manipulator has been installed along the packaging line, allowing operators to:

  • Easily remove empty cases from a storage area.
  • Form cases with a simple movement, maintaining full control of the handling process.
  • Place products inside and move the cases to the next stage of the line.

The introduction of INDEVA® manipulators has brought tangible benefits:

  • Increased productivity: case handling and forming operations have been speeded up, reducing cycle times.
  • Reduced physical effort: operators work safely and without fatigue, also improving job satisfaction and well-being.
  • Operational flexibility: the system easily adapts to different case sizes.
  • Increased accuracy and quality: controlled handling reduces the risk of damage to cases or products.

This case history demonstrates how INDEVA® manipulators are an ideal solution for optimising handling and packaging processes. Innovation, ergonomics and performance combine to improve productivity and ensure a safe and sustainable working environment.
