CLINTON TOWNSHIP, Mich. -- KUKA Robotics Corporation, a leading global manufacturer of industrial robots, today announced the release of its PalletTech palletizing software version 3.5 and will show a sample palletizing demonstration utilizing the software at ATX South in booth 2309. The new version of the company’s industry leading palletizing software features enhanced capabilities for complicated robotic palletizing applications including augmented gripper support and multiple orientation pick up. The software is a suite of application development and run time tools that reduces engineering and development time and enables the out-of-box implementation of complicated robotic palletizing applications.
“Palletizing customers with complex palletizing applications have been demanding more flexibility to accommodate their processes,” said Stuart Shepherd, president of KUKA Robotics Corporation. “With the ability to work off line and dynamically reposition itself during pallet builds PalletTech 3.5 offers capabilities that our customers cannot easily find other places on the market.”
KUKA Robotics’ PalletTech software version 3.5 suite consists of two modules, the PalletEdit tool and the PalletRunTime application package. PalletEdit is a PC based offline engineering and programming tool that allows development of complete palletizing applications in a GUI environment, including optimized pallet patterns and robot motion profiles. The tool features a point and click interface and requires no spreadsheet or formula interfaces. New features in version 3.5 include enhanced clamp gripper support that allows for the use of grippers with two independent gripping segments and multiple orientation pick capability that allows for the robot to pick product that is oriented either lengthwise or widthwise from the same conveyor.
