Cases and throughput
Weight including packaging, size variation, arrival rate, shifts, pallet patterns and changeovers.
END-OF-LINE AUTOMATION
When end-of-line stacking becomes the bottleneck.
Show us your cases, required rate, pallet patterns and floor space. Knoxlabs helps scope a station around the line, with tooling, controls, site integration and safety responsibilities called out.
A line photo or a few case specifications are enough to start.
A USEFUL FIRST REVIEW
A station scope tied to your line, not a generic arm quote.
We start with what arrives at the end of the line and what a finished pallet must look like. The aim is to identify candidate hardware and the engineering questions that remain.
Robot and handling path
Candidate reach, end-of-arm tooling, infeed sensing, pallet location and available footprint.
Site integration
Controls, guarding, commissioning, line stoppages and who owns each safety and support decision.
The station configuration and achievable rate depend on application review and testing.
FIRST REVIEW
Three things we ask aboutCase size, weight, and variation
Target rate and pallet pattern
Floor space and safety needs
FIT CHECK
Is your line ready to review?
Start with the case flow and stacking goal; feasibility depends on site conditions.
- Case size and weight
- Target line rate
- Pallet size and pattern
- SKU and packaging variation
- Floor space and line controls
THE HARDWARE SCOPE
What we review together
Robot and reach
Payload, reach, mounting, and work envelope are checked against the cases and pallet pattern.
End-of-arm tooling
The gripper or other tooling must match the packaging and handling requirements.
Infeed and sensing
Conveyor interface, case detection, and any vision or sensing needs are part of the scope.
Integration and safety
Controls, guarding, commissioning, and site safety responsibilities must be assigned.
Support path
We clarify training, spares, service, and who supports the completed cell.
HOW WE WORK
From line details to a scoped next step.
No rate, lead-time, or savings promise is made before the application is reviewed.
01
Share the task
Send a line photo, case details, rate, pallet pattern, and available space.
02
Review the cell
We identify the hardware fit and the questions requiring integration or safety review.
03
Agree the scope
The quote clarifies equipment, responsibilities, testing, and support.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Before you reach out
Do we need a full engineering specification?
No. Start with the case, line, and pallet information you have. We can identify missing details together.
Can one cell handle multiple case sizes?
Possibly. The answer depends on packaging variation, tooling, pattern, and changeover needs; it must be assessed for the specific line.
Who installs and commissions the cell?
That depends on the selected configuration and project scope. The proposal must identify the responsible party before any commitment.
