A powerful process control function and distributing camera data to several robot areas feature enhanced software platform for automated packaging lines with multiple robot workstations.
The Product Topper can be used for border free products and used with toppings such as diced fruit, grated cheese, diced vegetables and granular products, for instance, said A-Tek.
