KUKA Robotics Launches Free Automated Packaging Equipment Resource Center
Clinton Township, Michigan - Nov 10, 2005 - KUKA Robotics Corporation, a leading global manufacturer of industrial robots, today announced it has created a unique and free web-based help and information center for manufacturers who are looking to make the transition from traditional mechanical or physical automated packaging and palletizing to a more flexible, lower-cost robotic approach to automated packaging equipment and automated packaging systems. The new web center can be accessed at kukaregistration.com/Automated_Packaging_Equipment.html
"Using robots on manufacturing assembly lines for hard goods such as automobiles gets all the press and television advertising coverage," said Joe Campbell, director of strategic development at Kuka Robotics. "Yet applying robotics to automated packaging and palletizing for everything from cereal boxes to consumer electronics is literally revolutionizing the cost structures and creating a strategic advantage for forward thinking manufacturers of high volume packaged goods."
The free Kuka Robotics information site offers case studies, references, links and downloads on a diverse array of automated packaging equipment and automated packaging solutions such as:
o A Comprehensive Free Automated Packaging Equipment and Automated Packaging Systems information and design resource guide tool-kit at: kukaregistration.com/Automated_Packaging_Equipment.html
o Solution specific overviews, resources, case studies, and free information downloads at: Robotic Palletizers: kukaregistration.com/Robotic_Palletizer.html
o Automated Case Packers: http://kukaregistration.com/Case_Packers.html
o Automated Bag Palletizers: kukaregistration.com/Bag_Palletizer.html
