Depalle Palletiz System

Summary and Features

The robotic system enables changes to load layouts and increases in the number of layers that conventional pallet changers cannot accommodate.

Maximize the load capacity per vehicle and resolve transportation capacity shortages.

Due to stricter regulations on drivers’ overtime work resulting from the “2024 Problem,” it has become difficult to maintain the same level of transport capacity as before. To ensure sufficient transport volume with a limited number of drivers and vehicles, it is essential to maximize the amount of cargo that can be loaded onto a single truck. By optimizing the number of units loaded, the number of layers, and the layout to match the dimensions of the truck’s cargo compartment, and by eliminating the dead space that resulted from conventional fixed loading patterns, it is possible to increase the load capacity per trip. Improved loading efficiency leads to a reduction in the number of transport trips, addressing the structural challenge of driver shortages by tackling both labor savings on the ground and transport efficiency.
