On October 25th and 26th, Sinterpack will take part in the second edition of the ENCUENTRO TECNOLÓGICO BURGOS INDUSTRIA 4.0, an event organized by the Digital Innovation Hub Industry 4.0 (Dihbu)The event, in collaboration with Promueve Burgos, sponsored mainly by Kaudal and Junta CyL, will be held at the Palacio de Congresos Fórum Evolución in Burgos.
The meeting aims to raise awareness of the industrial applications of key technologies for the development of Industry 4.0 and existing support resources to promote the generation of new industrial digitization projects, with a special focus on industrial SMEs.
In its first edition, held in 2021, there were more than 700 participants and 39 technology demonstrators present, 12 of them from Burgos and 27 from other Spanish provinces in a hybrid format, which combined an exhibition of demonstrators and technical conferences of great interest.
This year, the meeting will consist of two parallel activities, which will be offered simultaneously on the 25th and 26th. On the one hand, the Industry 4.0 Solutions Expo, where 41 technology demonstrators will be located, and on the other hand, the Industrial Track 4.0 Technical Conferences (third edition), which will show trends and use cases in industrial digitization.
SINTERPACK’s multi-reference collaborative palletizing system
Sinterpack will exhibit its innovative Collaborative Palletizing System for Picking in Hall 3. It consists of an industrial robot with sensitive skins (KUKA) that enables it to work collaboratively. The robot, being of industrial typology, is equipped with this sensitive that enables it to work in a collaborative environment, interacting with people without having to apply the safety systems of this type of robot, but with some of the advantages of the same, such as load capacity and height.
In addition, it has box conveyors and software that configures the pallets based on the simultaneous arrival of boxes of different sizes, multi-reference. This solution is ideal for companies in the logistics sector and some customers who end up picking (disassembling complete single reference pallets and forming customer order pallets).
This system integrates a 3D machine vision reader that calculates the volume of the box to be palletized. This allows multi-reference palletizing as opposed to the typical single-reference palletizing, which has the advantage, first of all, of forming pallets of products to the customer’s specifications, as well as creating pallets with boxes unloaded from containers to store the goods in the racking area, and assembling pallets for material and parcel distribution.
About SINTERPACK
Sinterpack is a company founded in Burgos in 1965, dedicated to the manufacture and integration of end-of-line equipment, which currently together with Prodec and Xolertic Asia, is part of the XOLERTIC group. Although each center maintains its own specialty, PRODEC, experts in flexible case packing and Sinterpack in palletizing and depalletizing, share a single spirit, that of offering their customers the best complete end-of-line solution.
Positioned as a leader in Spain with more than 50 years providing solutions in the handling of packaged products, it maintains today a strong presence in the dairy sector, currently having a market share of around 70% in end-of-line systems.
It also has solutions in other food subsectors (cookies, butter, flour, sugar, canned food, frozen foods, etc.), automotive, paper and cellulose and chemicals. In other words, it has the technology and experience and, therefore, the capacity to adapt to each requirement.
In this sense, Sinterpack, as usual, guarantees a continuous palletizing process within demanding environments due to high speeds and different types of formats and products. It offers a complex end-of-line solution technology, with easy-to-use, flexible and fully customized digital integration.
