The next step in evolution
Tripod solution for the palletising technology
The Robobox T opens new possibilities in the KRONES dry part, because it uses a tripod robot with innovative parallel kinematics. Thanks to this conversion, it has advanced several steps at once. Why? It has become more powerful, quicker, more robust and precise at one go.
At a glance
Machine versions:
- Robobox T-GS groups packs according to defined layer patterns.
- Robobox T-LD turns and distributes packs, e. g. between two packers.
Processing range: all commercial non-returnable packs

Robobox T-GS grouping system – benefits to you
High performance on small space
Being a high-performance tripod robot, the Robobox T-GS groups up to 500 layers per hour with only one module.
Precise layer pattern
Positive-fit precision grippers guide the packs safely and precisely to their determined positions.
Gentle pack conveyance
No more stop-and-go: The packs enter the grouping station continuously with very low impact. For packs that are critical to transport such as shrink packs with petaloid bases, the transfer plates between the flush-grid belt tables can be omitted in the design.
Simple design
Due to its innovative parallel kinematics, the Robobox T-GS must move up to 70 percent less own mass than an articulated-arm robot or a portal robot.
Intelligent correction mode
The grouping system checks the position of the incoming packs and regulates it upon deviations.
Efficient team
Depending on the respective task, the grouping system can be combined with additional machines from the Krones dry part. An especially effective combination: In a team with the Modulpal Pro 2ADP palletising robot, the Robobox T-GS achieves great performances on small space.
Quick product change-over
In order to keep change-overs as short as possible, the Robobox hardly requires any product-specific components.
Flexibility and efficiency
Depending on the requirement, the infeed is performed on one or two lanes. It is also possible to position several packs simultaneously.

Gentle grippers
Handling like with kid gloves: Positive-fit precision grippers turn and distribute the packs without damaging them.
Short commissioning time
The modular and pre-installed system can be commissioned very quickly and easily.
Gentle pack conveyance
No more stop-and-go: The packs enter the turning and distribution system continuously with very little impact. For packs that are critical to transport such as shrink packs with petaloid bases, the transfer plates between the flush-grid belt tables can be omitted in the design.
