360° palletizing and depalletizing robot
In industrial logistics systems, efficiently organizing and moving both non-returnable and returnable packaging is vital. Challenges include optimal space utilization and ensuring high throughput while minimizing downtime.

Optimize space and improve throughput
The Innopal RK by KHS is a multi-axis-controlled articulated robot designed for palletizing and depalletizing tasks. Its comprehensive 360° working range ensures no dead spots, allowing for a highly flexible conveyor system design. The robot handles various container types including plastic crates, kegs, barrels, cartons, trays, shrink packs, individual packets, and bags, with a working load capacity of up to 570 kg. An automatic head change feature makes it versatile for handling both non-returnable and returnable packaging. Equipped with the latest robot technology, such as energy recovery during braking, absolute encoders, and bus technology, it supports sustainable operations. The modular control system further enhances ease of use and maintenance.
