We have customized a Cartesian XYZ palletizer for one of our clients to enable efficient palletizing on their plastic pellet production line. The existing product packaging and line information are as follows:
Product name: Plastic pellets
Packaging form: PP bags
Product specification: 20 kg/bag
Product dimensions: 650×550×160 mm
Pallet dimensions: 1300×1100 mm
Stacking pattern: 4 bags per layer, 9–10 layers
Total pallet height: 1600 mm
Based on the above basic information, we recommended and customized a Model 160 Cartesian XYZ palletizing robot for the client, equipped with a custom-designed gripper. The machine parameters are as follows:
| Parameters | |
| Power | AC 380V±/5% three-phase four-wire |
| Pneumatic Requirements | Grippers: 0.6-0.8 MPa, ≥0.3 m³/min
Total air reservoir capacity >600 L |
| Dimensions | Overall height 2.6m, length 2.5m, width 2.1m
Footprint 2.5×2.1 m² |
| Cable Length | 3m (from robot body to control cabinet) |
| Palletizing Height | ≤1600mm |
| Applicable Scope | 10-50kg product
Including: bags, cartons, sheets, blocks, or similar products |
| Palletizing efficiency | 300-400 cycles/hour (theoretical maximum) |
| Power Consumption | Robot body: 6.5 kW |
| Pallet reference | ≤1200×1400mm (including actual stack pattern) |
| Customizable item | Cross arm length, column height, base length, special grippers |
| Follow-on upgrade | Vision identity, pallet conveyor line
Ton bag lifting reciprocating mechanism, anti-collapse linkage system |
The machine has passed acceptance inspection and is currently in the process of applying for CE certification.
We Spin supply three mainstream palletizing robots: cartesian coordinate robots, column-type palletizer, and articulated robotic arms.

Cartesian XYZ Palletizer: The Stable Choice for Precision and Heavy Loads
Professional Design:
Based on the Cartesian coordinate system, adopting a gantry or column-type framework. The core consists of three sets of linear motion units: X-axis (horizontal left/right), Y-axis (horizontal forward/backward), and Z-axis (vertical up/down). To balance the torque caused by long-travel cantilevers, the Y and Z axes often employ dual linear units and dual sliders to ensure motion stability and mechanical rigidity. An optional A-axis (rotation) can be added to handle complex materials, forming a 4-axis configuration.
Motion Trajectory:
The end effector moves only linearly along the X, Y, and Z axes. The trajectory type is simple, completing point-to-point transfers through combinations of three-directional linear displacements. Its working envelope is a precise rectangular or cuboid space.
Applicable and Common Scenarios:
Leveraging high rigidity and heavy load capacity, it is especially suitable for handling heavy, large, and regularly shaped materials. Widely used in industries such as automotive manufacturing, building materials, metallurgy, and heavy machinery. Common scenarios include the handling and palletizing of molds, metal ingots, plates/panels, heavy parts, and other regular-shaped objects.
