Palletizers Market Opportunity

GROWING DEMAND FOR CUSTOMIZATION AND FLEXIBILITY FOR PALLETIZERS

Demand for customs and flexibility palletizing systems remains a high-growth opportunity for manufacturers. Industry segments, like food & beverage, pharmaceuticals, and consumer goods, will diversify products, which increase the demand for palletizers with ease of reprogramming and reconfiguration for the palletization of different sizes, shapes, and weights. Modular robotic palletizers developed by ABB and FANUC can change between various product configurations in a very short time with minimal downtime. Industry reports claim that market growth for custom-made automation solutions is at mid-single-digit percentages, with certain segments getting up to a 5–7% CAGR enhancement from flexible systems. 

A prominent soft drink manufacturer that installed a modular palletizer managed to decrease its changeover time by around 20% while increasing its total throughput. The pharmaceutical company could also improve efficiency by almost 15% after adopting the reprogrammable palletizing solution, as it can now handle different formats of packaging. These examples depict how flexible systems not only prevent operational disruption but also help achieve productivity and lower costs. Accordingly, companies that invest in flexible palletizing technologies, which can be easily customized, will become the winners in an ever-evolving landscape of industrial automation.
