KUKA KR AGILUS achieves automation in food processing

The Dutch family-owned brand, Vepo Cheese, sought a solution for automating food processing: Two KUKA KR AGILUS sanitary robots are tasked with processing cheese into strips and feeding them into the packaging machine. This automated process not only enhances hygiene conditions but also doubles production capacity.
Product Case Benefits

Innovative technology boosts production capacity from 5,000 to 10,000 units per hour.

2.Automated Cutting and Packaging Technology:
The LAMBDA 405 cutter precisely slices cheese into individually packaged snack strips.
Simple operation reduces human contact, ensuring the highest hygiene standards.

3.Automated Detection and Precision Operation:
Cameras scan cheese slice positions, allowing the KR AGILUS HM to accurately pick and cut, ensuring even slices.
Checkweighers measure each cheese strip's weight, minimizing weight variance.

4.Smart Food Processing:
Fully automated production line with robots operating throughout, significantly reducing cutting waste and increasing productivity.
KUKA.Sim simulation software and VR glasses allow customers to preview the complete system.

5.Compliance with Top Food Hygiene Standards:
Corrosion-resistant surfaces, food-grade lubricants, and stainless steel parts ensure product safety.
Compliant with national and international food hygiene regulations.
