Gebo Cermex robotic keg handling system

Monday, 23 March, 2015


Gebo Cermex’s robotic key handling system, for depalletising and palletising kegs, is a 6-axis poly-articulated robot. Designed for various keg sizes, including 20 L, 30 L Slim, 30 L Large, 50 L and 58 L, it incorporates a vision system to detect randomly placed kegs on a pallet, keg orientation, cap presence and optional cap removal.

The system provides secured grip of kegs in any condition, dry, wet or frozen or partially dented, and can handle empty and full kegs up to 90 kg. The robotic system operates at 98.5% efficiency at speeds of 6 kegs/min for depalletising and 10 kegs/min when palletising. A simple drop-in piece adapts the gripper to different keg formats and the system includes power fail-safe grip and positive grip and release detection and a user-friendly human machine interface.
