Rotzinger Group to Showcase Robot at PACK EXPO

Rotzinger Group, a leading provider of automation solutions, is launching its highly advanced Robot with an Integrated Buffer and its Hygienic Conveyor for dry cleaning The technologies will be showcased at PACK EXPO Las Vegas, at booth SU-7113 from Sept 11-13

Leveraging decades of expertise in pick and place delta robots, buffering and conveying, the new integrated solution from Rotzinger combines flexibility, compactness and ease of operation to boost uptime and reduce total cost of ownership Designed for confectionery and bakery products, the hygienic conveyor is optimized for dry cleaning, ensuring compliance with stringent food safety regulations in U S manufacturing
