Robot for picking and placing cookies in wrappers
In large-scale bakery operations, manually sorting, aligning, and placing cookies into wrappers can lead to inconsistencies, reduce efficiency, and complicate maintaining hygiene standards. These challenges can hinder production rates and increase labor costs, emphasizing the need for a reliable automated solution.
Automate cookie sorting and wrapping
The COOKIEBOT by Houdijk is a vision-guided robotic Pick & Place system designed to streamline cookie packaging processes. It handles random supplies of cookies with tool-less change-overs for different types, sizes, and shapes, enabling a variety of pile pack configurations. The system features multiple independently operating modules with overhead robots available in different reach executions. The robotic gripper can rotate products, and its design—whether vacuum-based or mechanical—is customized based on project requirements. An intelligent control system ensures all cookies are correctly loaded, and the unit is fully engineered for 24/7 operational robustness in bakery environments.
