Folder Gluer + Flip Stacker + Portable Collaborative Robot Palletizer

The Ultimate Fully Automated End-of-Line Packaging Solution

The YOCO GROUP Fully Automated End-of-Line Packaging Production Line integrates three high-efficiency systems into one seamless, smart workflow: a high-speed Folder Gluer, the FZ1100 Flip Stacker, and a Portable Collaborative Robot Palletizer.

Designed specifically for medium to large packaging industries, this comprehensive line bridges the gap between carton folding and final palletization. It processes cardboard and various corrugated materials (3-ply and 5-ply, flutes A, B, C, E, EB, AB) from raw sheets into perfectly counted, neatly flipped, and securely stacked bundles ready for shipping.

By combining precise mechanical synchronization with advanced human-machine collaboration, this system eliminates manual handling, reduces labor bottlenecks, and optimizes factory floor space.

In modern packaging facilities across Europe, the Americas, and Southeast Asia, traditional end-of-line packaging creates massive operational bottlenecks. This integrated line directly solves these critical industry challenges:

• Skyrocketing Labor Costs & Shortages: Finding reliable operators for heavy, repetitive stacking and palletizing tasks is increasingly difficult and expensive.
• Frequent Bottlenecks at High Speeds: High-speed folder gluers often run below capacity because human packers cannot keep up with the output.
• Inaccurate Counting & Uneven Bundles: Manual counting leads to shipping errors, while un-flipped corrugated bundles suffer from uneven thickness, making final pallets unstable.
• Rigid, Massive Footprints: Traditional industrial robot cells require permanent safety fencing and massive floor spaces, which do not fit into tight or evolving factory layouts.

• High-Precision Sensor Counting: Utilizes a belt incline carrier and advanced high-precision sensors to perform flawless carton counting.
• Independent Servo-Controlled 180° Flipping: Enables automatic 180-degree rotation of alternating bundles. This compensates for the natural thickness bias of glued carton flaps, ensuring completely flat, uniform, and stable stacks.
• Modular & Adaptable Design: Beyond the mandatory flipping and stacking modules, customers can freely combine functional components (counting, flipping, stacking, and diverting) to fit precise workflow demands.

• Plug-and-Play Mobility: Featuring a highly integrated, lightweight design, this portable unit occupies a compact footprint of just 6 square meters (including double stacking zones). It can be redeployed across multiple production lines within 2 hours.
• Zero-Programming Interface: Featuring a true "one-click startup" system, operators can configure new visualized stacking patterns via a user-friendly 15-inch touch screen within 5 minutes—no coding required.
• Dual-End Tooling Adaptability: Can be customized with either a Sucker Type (Vacuum) or Gripper Type mechanical end-effector to seamlessly manage different-sized cartons and complex layer configurations.
• Uncompromised Safety & CE Compliance: Certified to international CE safety standards. It supports advanced human-machine collaboration and can be fitted with optional laser radar protection electronic fences or grating protection barriers.

The production line scales according to your maximum sheet width requirements. Six primary models are engineered to match your plant's capacity:

Applicable Paper (Gluing Section): Cardboard 300g−800g and micro-flute/corrugated paper (F, E, C, B, A, EB, AB).

Parameter Specification

• Applicable Paper: Corrugated B, C, E, AB (3-ply and 5-ply)
• Feeding Method: Automatic continuous feeding
• Carton Width (After Folding): 220−1000 mm
• Carton Length (After Folding): 300−800 mm
• Machine Speed: 80 meters/minute
• Belt Type & Width: Polypropylene (PP) / 30mm−50mm
• Dimensions (L x W x H): 5920×1900×2000 mm
• Power & Weight: ≈18.5 kw / ≈4 Tons

Parameter Performance Capability

• Max. End Loading Capacity: Up to 50 kg
• Max. Packing Speed: 8−10 Pcs/min
• Total Floor Area Occupied: 6 square meters (including dual-pallet stacking)
• HMI Control Touch Screen: 15-inch interactive I/O display

• Significant Labor Savings: This automated end-of-line configuration directly replaces the workload of up to 4 manual packaging workers, providing full ROI within months.
• Unrivaled Box Type Flexibility: Handles straight-line sealing boxes, crash lock bottom (hook-bottom) boxes, 4/6 corner boxes, and double-sided box designs seamlessly.
• Designed for International Safety Regulations: Built with premium components and CE compliance, making it ideal for the strict regulatory frameworks of European and North American manufacturing floors.
• Secondary Development Support: Powered by an independently developed core operating system, our collaborative robot supports secondary software modifications, allowing IT and engineering teams to customize it for local ERP/MES integrations.

A: Not at all. The collaborative robot features an intelligent, visualized operating system. Setting up a new box pattern or bundle path takes less than 5 minutes through the 15-inch touch screen without writing a single line of code.

A: Because corrugated and folded boxes have a natural height imbalance on the glued side. If you stack them all in the same direction, the pile will lean and eventually fall over. The independent servo-driven flipping module rotates bundles 180 degrees alternately, creating a perfectly balanced and stable stack.

A: It is incredibly straightforward. Thanks to its lightweight, integrated design and portable footprint, engineering teams can fully relocate, set up, and debug the palletizer on a new production line within 2 hours.

A: Yes. The FZ1100 stacker and the main line comfortably handle thick cardboards (300g−800g) and heavy 3-ply and 5-ply corrugated cardboards across flutes A, B, C, E, and combined flutes like AB/EB. The robot arm supports a robust payload capacity of up to 50kg at its end-effector.
