Reduce repetitive manual lifting

Move demanding end-of-line palletizing tasks from operators to robots, reducing repetitive handling while freeing employees for higher-value production work.

Adapt to changing products and pallets

Handle different box sizes, pallet formats, and pallet patterns without building a dedicated system for every product. D:PLOY-based solutions support fast in-house changeovers when production changes.

Get automation running faster

Pre-engineered D:PLOY palletizing solutions combine the robot, tooling, lift, pallet fixtures, and software into a complete system designed for rapid deployment rather than months of custom engineering.

2FGP20

Electric gripper for palletizing

The 2FGP20, a powerful, versatile, electric palletizing gripper with a 20 kg payload and customizable arms that can handle open boxes and shelf-ready products while also handling slip sheets without changing the gripper or requiring additional handling.

Palletizer 2 finger electric

20 kg payload - built for full-scale palletizing loads
Combined fingers + vacuum - electric parallel fingers grip open or heavy boxes vacuum-only grippers can't, and the integrated vacuum cup handles slip sheets, all in one tool with no gripper change
Electric finger gripping - no external air supply needed for the grip itself, so faster deployment and lower running costs
Customizable, wide-stroke arms - swap or adjust fingertips to redeploy across different box types and lines quickly
