A Robotiq Case Study
RAIN Pure Mountain Spring Water, a sustainable beverage producer, faced significant challenges with manual palletizing. Employees were manually stacking heavy 30-pound cases of water bottles, creating an ergonomically unfriendly bottleneck that risked injury and limited throughput. To address these labor-intensive issues and their space-constrained facility, RAIN partnered with vendor Robotiq to find an automated solution.
Robotiq implemented its compact PE20 Palletizing Solution, which featured a collaborative robot and a space-saving design that fit seamlessly into the existing layout. The solution significantly boosted palletizing speed and operational efficiency. Most notably, it eliminated the physical strain on employees, who were reassigned to higher-value roles. The system also delivered a faster-than-expected return on investment, with the facility now lifting 100,000 pounds per shift automatically.
