Syntegon Technology has been offering robotic solutions for process and packaging technology for many years. With its newly developed robotic pick-and-place platform, Syntegon RPP, the company improves the automation of packaging lines.

The core functions of the newly developed RPP platform include quality assurance, user-friendliness and efficient production processes. With the Syntegon's expertise in robotics combined with industrial know-how, it can offer its customers automated turnkey solutions from a single source.

The Syntegon RPP platform automates process steps such as handling, feeding and loading. The new robotic platform is designed as a modular system. This allows individual configuration of the robotic cells.

Each robotic cell of the RPP platform can be configured individually to automate processes such as feeding, handling and loading.

"Each customer project is different. Thanks to the modular RPP platform, we can handle a wide variety of products. The Delta robots can be flexibly connected and, together with transport modules, seamlessly integrated into an overall system," stated Andreas Schildknecht, Product Manager Robotics at Syntegon.

Andreas Schildknecht continued, "Together with our customers, we can automate single process steps consecutively and in line with their needs or budgets, following the principle 'build as you grow'. Moreover, the platform can be scaled to suit different production capacities, while multiple cells can be connected."

The open control software ensures the seamless integration of the Delta robots into the line. The comprehensive integration of controls and hardware is essential for all components within the line to communicate with each other through a single control platform – and to function well together.

The new robotic platform is designed as a modular system and can be incorporated seamlessly into existing production lines.

The platform, which was designed according to the latest UX aspects, ensures user-friendly operation. New features support the operators in making their daily work with the line easy and effective. The RPP cells provide good visibility, easy access and efficient cleaning.

The stainless steel robotic cells meet the IP65 protection class. This minimizes the risk of contamination for both current and future hygiene requirements in the food industry. In addition, the tool-free format changeover reduces downtime, allowing manufacturers to process different products on the same line and to respond quickly to changing market demands.

"With the Syntegon RPP platform, we are paving the way for future manufacturing. However, we have by no means reached the end of the road," said Dr. Silke Blumer, Vice President Strategy and Product Management for the business unit Food at Syntegon. "Our unique combination of mechanical engineering, robotics and industry expertise makes the Syntegon RPP platform one step of many, albeit a very important one."

In parallel, Syntegon is working to develop further innovative automation technologies – and will soon introduce new developments to the market for the food and pharmaceutical industries.
