Food and Beverage Packaging: What’s the difference between robotics and automation?
Chris Follows: While the terms have become perhaps incorrectly interchangeable, robotics is the term used to describe the field of robots and its uses.
Food and beverage manufacturers turn to Schneider for end-of-line robotic case packing, palletizing, tray packing, specialty cartoning and customized food and beverage packaging solutions
New technology may allow machines to pack more and more cartons per minute, but machinery companies are working to provide additional improvements that will help with the overall function of the machine and the line where it is placed
