CKF Systems are delighted to have started the installation of another Robotic Central Palletising system for a world leading snack manufacturer at one of their large state-of-the-art, modern facilities, building further on the company’s 25-year strong working relationship.

This latest install will provide fully automated palletisation, taking cased product from seven existing production lines. Elements of the systems design were carried over from the two large Robotic Central Palletising systems already supplied and commissioned by CKF for them at another of their plants.

CKF are providers in automated robotic solutions with more than 30 years’ experience supporting different industries including Food & Beverage, Logistics, Pharmaceutical and Automotive. This new multi-million-pound system is the latest robotic system to have been delivered and commissioned by the experienced engineering team at CKF, aiding our client’s drive for the improvement and automation of the operations within their manufacturing facility.

This system is a full turnkey solution from CKF Systems incorporating CKF’s own range of pallet and case conveyors along with ABB robots, Apollo Spirals and Intralox ARB equipment. CKF are ABB Value Providers and are the only company in the UK to hold a full Preferred Partnership agreement with Intralox giving CKF a license to manufacture Intralox’s ARB equipment in house.
