Sage Automation is proud to announce the sale of our new lightweight gantry design for use in a palletizing process of poly wrapped paper rolls.

This new robot sorts tires coming from multiple manufacturing lines, stores them, and then palletizes when a full pallet of product is ready. It uses a new inside diameter pick clamp to move varying sizes of tires and a load cell allows it to adjust dynamically for tire compression and hang.

This second video shows the conveyor and robot working together to make multiple picks at a time.

Recently, India has been touted as the second fastest growing market in Asia, allowing for US manufacturers an opportunity for foreign expansion.  Sage Automation, Inc. will exhibit in the upcoming India Rubber Expo in an effort to seize a slice of this growing market.

Sage Automation, Inc. has designed and installed robots and other automation equipment worldwide since 1995, but this will be the first time to take part in a trade show outside of North America.  Please visit us at the Chennai Trade Centre, Chennai, Tamil Nadu India from January 19th - 22nd in Booth #137.

Sage Automation's new corrugated bundle unitizer is capable of automatic squaring of flat or tapered bundles, either loose or tied, at rates of up to 20 bundles per minute.  The modular construction of this unit enables it to be delivered in various configurations to meet the flow requirements of virtually any existing facility.

Distribution Centers typically stock full pallet load quantities of hundreds to thousands of different products.  These full pallets must be broken down into pallets containing a mix of different SKUs for shipment to retail outlets based on time-sensitive orders.

This process has historically been an extremely labor-intensive operation, and due to its manual nature, prone to errors.
