KUKA.PalletTech

Palletizing software that provides easy and user-friendly solutions for the configuration and execution of palletizing tasks across various packaging, packing patterns and stations, whatever the dimension.

Innovative palletising software for the quick and flexible palletising of unmixed articles

With KUKA.PalletTech, you can configure your palletising application even without comprehensive robotic programming knowledge. By automatically generating the robot programs, the automation technology package enables extremely quick start-up of complete palletising applications.
Thanks to customised adaptations, the robotic software can be specially tailored to your requirements and integrated into your existing production.

Automated palletising with KUKA.PalletTech software: easy creation and flexible adaptation of palletising scenarios

Quick configuration of cell components

The PalletTech editor in KUKA.WorkVisual provides a step-by-step guide and allows for the complete configuration of cell components such as grippers, infeed stations and outfeed stations.
Simple definition and modification of palletising tasks

The pallet layout and items on a pallet, as well as their patterns, can be configured and modified in a user-friendly manner. Modification, in particular, is possible without advanced automation software knowledge.
Maximum system availability

The available error strategies and monitoring functions minimize downtimes during operation, allowing you to optimise the processes.
Custom adaptability to meet specific requirements

The automatically generated robotic programs offer entry points for flexible expansion of the program code.

Design palletising processes easily in just a few steps from installation to production

Configure any combination of layer and stacking patterns, that align with your packaging, with intuitive feedback through graphical visualization via KUKA.WorkVisual.

Install KUKA.PalletTech

The PalletTech editor is automatically installed via the iKOP function in KUKA.WorkVisual.
Define project structure

Cell components such as grippers, infeed stations and outfeed stations are defined. This is followed by items, slipsheets and pallets.
Determine palletising instructions

Design the layer sequence (e.g. pallet, product, slipsheets, product, etc.) as well as the patterns of the products within the layers.
Define palletising scenarios

Link articles to infeed stations and palletising instructions (pallet structure) to outfeed stations.

Functions of the robotic palletising software

Configuration of palletising cell: grippers, stations, signals

Configuration of palletising items: products, slipsheets, pallets

Configuration of palletising instructions: stacking plan, layer definition

Configuration of production scenarios: infeed stations, palletising stations
