Request an assessment and quoteCartesian technology
In the palletizing configuration, the CR-NX combines the linear movements X, Y and Z with the rotation of the gripper: four degrees of freedom to move and guide the product in the formation of the pallet.
In the CR-NX designation, N indicates the number of axes. The structure, axis travel, drives and tooling are defined together, taking payload and cycle time into account. Recirculating-ball linear guides form the mechanical foundation of the axes.

Configurable mechanics
Spindle, rack or timing belt: axis travel, load, speed and precision guide the choice. The common basis is recirculating ball linear guides.
Positioning and rigidity
Converts rotation into linear motion by a set of recirculating spheres. The selection considers the required accuracy, the load and the axis travel.
Positioning applications and axes subject to greater efforts, depending on the dimensioning.
Long travel ranges
A modular transmission for long travel distances, with the rigidity needed for handling. It can be combined with other transmissions on the same robot.
Long axes, gantries and support for different positions of palletizing.
Movement agility
Timing-belt drive, selected when the moving mass, travel and throughput requirements favor this architecture.
Transfer and pick & place, considering the load and precision required by the process.
A CR-NX can combine a rack in X, a belt in Y and a spindle in Z. The composition follows the demands of each movement; axis travel ranges and performance are defined for the application configuration.
Palletizing Carioli System
A mathematical model developed by Carioli transforms the product dimensions into palletizing positions and trajectories. In the configurations covered, product exchange takes place by parameters, without teaching each point manually.
The product dimensions are included as configuration parameters.
The mathematical model defines positions, heights and alternation of layers.
The trajectories and deposit position consider the product's pick-up point.
The system considers the position in which the gripper picks up the box and compensates for this displacement when positioning it on the pallet. This reduces the need to centralize each product in the supply, within the conditions foreseen for the application.
The operator reports the data and monitors the operation via the HMI. The software base already applied in the field allows different products to be serviced with the same palletizing logic.

Before budgeting
The value depends on load, axis travel ranges, number of axes, gripper, structure and integration. The budget starts by surveying the product, cycle and layout; There is no single price that represents all configurations.
They are defined for configuration and trajectory. The cargo includes the product and the tool; the cycle includes picking, moving, releasing, returning and waiting. Send operation conditions to technical selection.
The assessment considers available signals, communication, timing, space and safety conditions. Necessary adaptations and interfaces must be included in the scope and proposal.
The timeline depends on configuration, component availability, site preparation, and integration. Manufacturing, assembly, testing and commissioning are different stages, with deadlines defined in the proposal.
Responsibilities, infrastructure preparation, training, documentation and support conditions need to be specified in the proposal. Application analysis identifies the needs of the operations and maintenance team.
Movements between defined positions, linear axis travel ranges and the work area guide the Cartesian evaluation. Complex tool orientations and paths with many angles may require another architecture. The comparison must use the same load, cycle, range and integration.
