Overview
- • The AUBO Heavy-Duty Collaborative Palletizing Workstation is a fixed-base robot cell that stacks cartons, bags, pails, drums and soft packs at the end of a production or packing line.
- • The cell is built around an AUBO iS series 6-axis collaborative arm and covers 20 kg, 25 kg and 35 kg payload classes with reaches from 1,647 mm up to 2,100 mm.
- • Repeatability of ±0.05 mm together with millisecond-level system response keeps every stacking cycle stable from the first pallet of the shift to the last.
- • Four models, iS20, iS20L, iS25 and iS35, let one platform match different carton weights, pallet heights and station layouts without redesigning the line.
- • A dedicated palletizing process package converts stacking parameters into an icon-driven, zero-code interface, so patterns are built on the teach pendant instead of in a programming language.
- • The workstation ships as a turnkey cell with the robot arm, fixed floor base, control cabinet, teach pendant and a vacuum or mechanical gripper configured for the actual load.
- • TCP/IP, Modbus TCP and Modbus-RTU communication link the cell to existing WMS, MES, conveyor and safety systems, and optional vision or conveyor modules extend it per project.

Advantages
20-35 kg Payload with 2,100 mm Reach
- • Four dedicated models cover 20 kg, 25 kg and 35 kg payload classes, so one palletizing platform fits light cartons, dense cases, bags, pails and drums.
- • A maximum reach of 2,100 mm reaches several pallet positions from a single compact base, which raises throughput without adding a second robot.
- • ±0.05 mm repeatability holds the pallet pattern square cycle after cycle, even when the cell runs continuously across shifts.
Graphical Zero-Code Interface
- • The palletizing process package turns stacking parameters into an icon-driven interface, so no robot programming language is involved.
- • Ordinary operators generate a pallet pattern with one click and combine patterns freely after minimal training on the teach pendant.
- • This removes dependence on scarce robot programmers and answers the skilled-labour shortage in packaging and end-of-line operations.
Compact Fixed-Base Construction
- • Floor mounting requires no foundation modification, which shortens installation, commissioning and line changeover.
- • The compact footprint frees end-of-line floor space while the long arm still serves multiple pallet stations.
10-Level Collision Detection and Power-Off Anti-Drop
- • Ten-level collision detection and sensor-based safety monitoring stop the arm on contact with a person, a pallet or an obstacle.
- • The power-off anti-drop function brakes the payload during an unexpected shutdown so cartons and bags stay on the gripper.
- • Eight safety I/O ports keep the safety functions active under single-fault conditions; the final safety concept is confirmed by the site risk assessment.
Open Protocol Integration Across Industries
- • TCP/IP, Modbus TCP and Modbus-RTU connect the cell to WMS, MES, conveyor and safety systems without a proprietary gateway.
- • Conveyors, third-party plugins, vision systems and additional safety devices can be added to the same cell per project.
- • The platform is proven in food, daily chemical, e-commerce logistics and hardware manufacturing lines, so it is a multi-industry palletizing solution rather than a single-purpose machine.
Applications
- • Carton and case palletizing at the end of packaging and filling lines.
- • Bag and soft-pack stacking in food and daily chemical production.
- • Pails, drums and rigid container handling in chemical and hardware plants.
- • End-of-line transfers in warehouse and logistics operations.
- • E-commerce fulfilment and distribution centre order stacking.
- • Hardware manufacturing and component packing stations.
- • Multi-pallet-position cells combined with conveyor infeed and guarding.
- • WMS and MES integrated stacking with defined cycle time and pallet patterns.
FAQ
Q: Which model suits a 30 kg carton stacked to 2,000 mm?
A: The iS35 class covers that duty: a 35 kg payload leaves margin for the gripper and a reach of up to 2,100 mm serves the full pallet height. Share your carton weight, pallet size and cycle time and we confirm the model in writing.
Q: Do operators need robot programming experience?
A: No. The palletizing process package is icon-driven and zero-code, so a trained operator generates patterns with one click and combines them freely without writing a program.
Q: What happens to the load if power is lost?
A: The power-off anti-drop function brakes the arm and keeps the payload from falling. Ten-level collision detection and the eight safety I/O ports support the rest of the safety concept.
Q: How is the cell connected to our conveyor and warehouse system?
A: The cell communicates over TCP/IP, Modbus TCP and Modbus-RTU, which covers WMS, MES, conveyor and safety integration. Extra plugins, vision and conveyors are configured per project.
Q: What are the packing and delivery figures?
A: One set is packed in a single case of 60 x 60 x 220 cm at 140.0 kg gross weight. Lead time is 80 days for one set and 90 days for two to five sets, with larger volumes negotiated.
Q: What support is included after shipment?
A: A one-year warranty with online technical support, a machinery test report, a video outgoing inspection, pallet pattern setup and process parameter commissioning on site.
