A transferring system includes a robot including a first arm having a pair of first holding parts and a second arm having a pair of second holding parts, a packing bag feeding device, and a control device. A suction part is provided to the inner surface of the first holding part. The control device operates the packing bag feeding device to feed a packing bag while opening its opening, then operates the first arm so that the inner surfaces of the pair of first holding parts contact the outer surface of the packing bag, the suction part sucks the outer surface, and a distance between the inner surfaces of the pair of first holding parts becomes larger than a length of food.

A conveyor system for grouping containers includes a first track including a first plurality of lugs, each lug having a respective gripper coupled thereto configured to drive containers along the first track and a second track configured to move a second plurality of lugs wherein each of the lugs is coupled to a respective gripper configured to receive containers from the first track, and move the containers along the second track wherein the grippers of the second track contact the container while the gripper of the first track contacts the container.

The present invention discloses an equipment for winding medical tubing, employing automated, sequentially-arranged workstations (1, 5, 7) capable of operating simultaneously, comprising one or more conveying units (2), one or more bending units (3) for arranging medical tubing (10) in a U shape, one or more loading units (4), one or more winding stations (5) for winding medical tubing (10), one or more unloading units (6) and, optionally, one or more packaging units (7).

The invention concerns a carton loading device (1) comprising a gripper assembly (20), which comprises at least one gripper (21) arranged to grip a product item (P) from above and to lower the product item (P) into a carton (10). The carton (10) comprises along first parallel sides (11) thereof comprises bottom side flaps (13) and top side flaps (14) and along second parallel sides (12) thereof comprises bottom end flaps (15) and top end flaps (16) and is presented to the gripper assembly (20) in a sleeve state with all flaps (13-16) unfolded. The gripper assembly (20) comprises a pinching means (22) arranged to pinch and hold the top side flaps (14) of the carton (10) and to hold and move the carton (10) and said product item (P) jointly to a carton closing station of the carton loading device (1), where the gripper assembly (20) finally releases said product item (P) and the carton (10) once the bottom side flaps (13) and the bottom end flaps (15) have been folded in and secured.

Method for transferring injection moldings, in particular pipette tips (P), out of an injection-molding machine into packaging containers (V1 to V4), comprising the following steps: removing the injection moldings (P) in an annular arrangement from a mold (W) of the injection-molding machine by way of a removable gripper (100), converting the annular arrangement into a row arrangement of the injection moldings (P) in a transfer station (101), positioning the injection moldings (P) in the transfer station (101) in a manner corresponding to the positioning in a workpiece carrier (102), and transferring the injection moldings (P) into the workpiece carrier (102) by way of the transfer station (101), whereupon the injection moldings (P) are inserted into the packaging containers (V1 to V4) from the workpiece carrier (102).

A beverage carton packing system includes an End of Arm Tool (EoAT). The EoAT is configured to lift one end and pull a beverage carton, package, or other container from a stack of cartons. Once pulled, the EoAT is configured to grab an opposite side of the carton and remove the carton from the stack. The EoAT is mounted to an Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) via a robot arm. Through the EoAT, the robot arm is able to stack mixed pallets of the cartons on the AGV. The AGV has a funnel-shaped packing chamber where the mixed pallet is stacked and a stretch wrapper for stretch wrapping the mixed pallet.
