Koenig & Bauer US/CA partners with industry leading Rigorous Technology https://lnkd.in/ghUHbj-c

I'm so proud to announce a new partnership between Rigorous Technology and Koenig & Bauer. We were first introduced to the team at KBA when one of their sales reps saw our first Box Hopper feeding their brand Omega folder/gluer at Accurate Box Company. They saw a small, early-stage company offering a robotic prefeeder that customers actually love. Those introductions turned into three years of conversations about our shared vision for advanced technologies that support real business goals. Koenig & Bauer is one of the world's oldest and largest printing press manufacturers. They bring a culture of innovation to longstanding industries, including corrugated and folding carton manufacturing. Koenig & Bauer and Rigorous are partnering to bring the BOB Palletizer to the paperboard packaging markets. BOB is the first palletizer designed for, and with, the packaging industry with early design partners including Curtis Packaging. “By offering this amazing new palletizer robot along with our popular folder gluers, we are confident that customers will see an immediate increase in efficiency, productivity, and ROI,” says Tom Fitzgerald, director of post press and corrugated products at Koenig & Bauer (US). “After working closely with Rigorous we are convinced that they have harnessed the highest level of innovation in their high-performance robotic palletizer.”

"The eye sees only what the mind is prepared to comprehend." ~Robertson Davies In robots, when you combine vision + software you gain some critical benefits. 1️⃣ Reliability - embedded smarts so BOB knows if he's doing it right. 2️⃣ Flexibility - products don't always show up the same way, in the same orientation. Vision systems allow BOB to detect and understand the products that are coming down the line and how they should be handled. Simply put, vision makes BOB a better worker.

We hate to see it... 😢 A robot, unplugged and abandoned in the corner of a factory. It's not that it doesn't work. It just didn't work better than the status quo. At Rigorous, we believe no robot needs to be put in the corner. Let’s make sure every robot has a purpose. 🦾 Looking to build out your automation program, but afraid to invest in a shiny new problem?
