Robotic gripper arm for bakery tray and product handling
Optimize your bakery’s efficiency by automating repetitive tasks like tray handling and dough piece management, ensuring seamless operation even in staffing shortages.

Automates Tray and Product Handling in Bakeries
The WP Robot from WP Riehle revolutionizes bakery operations by automating labor-intensive processes such as tray handling and dough piece transport. This equipment excels with its modularity, allowing seamless integration into existing production lines. Designed to cater to bakeries, food manufacturers, and snack producers, it supports high-speed and continuous operations, effortlessly handling tasks across processing, packaging, and transport departments. The robots employ a versatile system of robotic grippers and suction attachments for efficient gripping, conveying, stacking, loading, unloading, and brushing. This flexibility is particularly beneficial for producing items like bread rolls, pretzels, croissants, and more. Additionally, WP Robot offers collaborative operation potential, minimizing floor space requirements without compromising safety. Constructed for durability, it addresses labor scarcity while maintaining processing consistency and reliability, making it an invaluable asset in modern food processing. Optional customization and engineering support ensure it meets specific production demands effectively.
