Packaging is the largest application for pick and place robots, spanning primary packaging (placing products in containers), secondary packaging (cartoning and case packing), and end-of-line palletizing. Delta robots dominate high-speed packaging lines where products must be picked from moving conveyors and placed into cartons or trays.
Chinese delta robot manufacturers offer packaging cells starting at $15,000-$30,000, including vision systems and conveyor integration. These systems can handle 60-200 picks per minute depending on product weight and travel distance.
For food and pharmaceutical packaging, Chinese manufacturers offer robots with FDA-compliant materials, IP67 washdown protection, and stainless steel construction — features previously only available from premium European brands at 2-3x the price.
