Comau + TIBER PACK (case007)

ROBOTIC PALLETIZING SUPPORTS THE FOOD INDUSTRY

Reliability and accuracy are two key drivers

Our approach

Ghigi is based in San Clemente, Italy, within a new production site that covers roughly 100,000 m2. In addition, the company can leverage the significant potential of using various covered and uncovered spaces located nearby, while its industrial and service activities also benefit from the strategic location. The Ghigi facilities are noted for their high degree of automation. Almost every activity, in fact, is automated, including the end-of-line operations. This level of automation has been made possible in part by Comau’s robotic solutions and by Tiber Pack, the System Integrator that integrated the Comau robots, installed the packaging machines and started them. In addition, Comau palletizing robots are used to automate Ghigi’s end-of-line operations.

“We chose, and continue to choose Comau because it is better than its competitors. It also has the advantage of being Italian, just like us. We believe in our country despite the existing difficulties, and we must invest, create value and innovation for it.”
“Our automated line, at its end, has four Comau palletizing robots. We chose them because, in addition to the fact that Comau is an Italian company, it has excellent references in terms of reliability and accuracy.”

Interested in the flexibility and speed of robotics

01

The importance of palletizing positioning, explained the Company, is fundamental. “The Ghigi packaging changes in terms of shape and weight depending on several factors including the type of pasta it contains, the type of box used (some boxes use less cardboard and have special shapes), and the country to which the products will be sent.

02

Variables require that the robot at the end of the line is capable of handling different boxes, in different positions, of different weights and with a different sensitivity depending on the movements to be made.

03

The robots are able to absorb, in terms of capacity and sensitivity, the inaccuracies that may result from the pasta shaping, which over time can occasionally produce pasta of slightly different weights and dimensions compared to the standards.
