MedicoPack is happy that their already low contamination risk has been reduced, while the efficiency of the production line has been improved significantly. Employees no longer need to stand by the conveyor belt and count the items while ensuring they are oriented correctly. This frees up both time and resources.
“We chose OnRobot’s grippers in collaboration with our machinery supplier who recognised the opportunity of meeting some of our requirements by handling the items with grippers. Among other things, there are options for tightness of the grip, placement of the grippers, and the speed with which they close”, says Kenneth Sæderup Pedersen.
He is also excited about the design of the grippers.
“Aesthetically, the grippers have a very nice design, and there is just a single, tiny wire – other than that, they are clinically clean. There are no hoses running the length of the robot like one might normally see. It is a nice look that contributes to simplifying the entire concept, delivering a clean look and high quality for the customers. At the same time, it reduces implementation and programming time”, emphasised Kenneth Sæderup Pedersen.
