Solving your training & onboarding obstacles

Collaborative Robotic solutions designed to palletize cases, bundles, bags, and trays.

The new Kaufman KPal collaborative palletizers are a perfect fit for those applications where palletizing operations are limited to a small footprint. The collaborative group of palletizers shines in the end-of-line arena where tight spaces are available, and low-to-moderate case rates are the design requirement. These systems are meticulously designed to provide the perfect combination of space and operator interaction, offering a cost-effective palletizing solution using cutting-edge technology.

The KPal Collaborative Models:

KPal CBV - Collaborative Vacuum System
KPal CBS - Collaborative Spatula System
KPal CBC - Collaborative Clamp System
KPal CBB - Collaborative Bag System

KES will configure your KPal Collaborative palletizer with the most efficient end-of-arm tooling for your specific product. The KPal CBV group features our proprietary vacuum-style end-of-arm tooling for conventional sealed corrugate cases. The KPal CBS group features our spatula-style end-of-arm tooling for bundles or trays. The KPal CBC group features our clamp-style end-of-arm tooling for bundles, cases, or trays. The KPal CBB group features our bag gripper end-of-arm tooling for high-speed palletizing of bagged products. With a long list of standard and optional features, the KPal Collaborative group is sure to increase the rate of return on your equipment investment.

The KPal Collaborative Palletizers are tailored to your industry segment whether it be Food, Beverage, Building Products, Paper, Plastic Container, Glass Container, Pharmaceutical, and Personal Care to name a few. KPal’s Standard Features include Allen Bradley PLC and control components and Category (3) Safety Architecture, Complete system set up and testing at KES.
