Logistics and Warehousing Industry
Industry Overview
Logistics and warehousing operations handle the transfer and storage of all kinds of goods, with a heavy daily workload of pallet depalletizing. Manual operations are physically demanding, limited in efficiency, and expensive in labor costs.
iNexBot Intelligent Palletizing System in Production
Industry Pain Points
Manual depalletizing speed is limited, causing inbound congestion during peak sales surges and low overall throughput
Rough manual picking easily crushes and damages cartons, keeping goods damage costs high
Night-shift allowances and personnel management overhead keep pushing labor costs up over time
Solution Advantages
Equipped with a 3D vision positioning system for intelligent depalletizing of randomly mixed multi-specification goods
Production efficiency of 8 cycles per minute, improving inbound efficiency, reducing losses, and enabling automated warehousing flow
Equipped with laser safety radar that stops immediately when a person is detected; combined with force-controlled anti-collision, the arm brakes instantly on contact — fully protecting personnel, goods, and equipment
Can operate 24 hours a day and adapts to goods of multiple specifications
Solution Overview
A 3D machine vision system detects the position and orientation of randomly stacked packages and sends position signals to the robot, guiding it to pick up the packages; a ranging sensor then measures the drop height so the packages are placed stably onto the conveyor line.

Recipe Setup
To create a recipe, simply calibrate the lowest place point in the recipe — no need to set product dimensions, pallet dimensions, or pallet pattern
Vision Calibration
Switch to the teach pendant and write the vision calibration program according to the vision vendor's requirements; once complete, run automatic calibration to verify that the coordinates sent by the vision system are accurate
Running the Program
Switch to the start page, turn on the depalletizing switch, and start operation
Hardware Overview
The hardware is based on the control system (C2200-A02) plus an industrial-grade display (XPC-NC-150)
