equipment
the Baker-Bot
Apex Motion Control, specialists in robotics and automation
for the baking and food industry, has designed their
Baker-Bot to support food manufacturers by automating the
loading and unloading of trays and pans. The Baker-Bot is a
collaborative robot that can easily integrate into an existing
system to support tray handling tasks for conveyors and racks
alike. The applications for the Baker-Bot's tray management
features are countless, including cookie production, bagel production,
and more.
Jamie Bobyk, marketing manager, Apex Motion Control,
explains that cookie stamping and other repetitive tasks are
handled with consistency and high efficiency with BakerBot.
" Baker-Bot
is extremely versatile and flexible, " Bobyk says,
adding that no additional tools are needed. " It can be extremely
precise and consistent - and saves labor costs. "
One important point is that Baker-Bot is built for consistency.
" With collaborative robots,
it's not about extreme
speed. It's about
mimicking speed, " Bobyk
explains. " It's about predictability
and reliability. "
Many will start with tray
handling when employing
Baker-Bot and then move
on to multiple tasks. The
machine will handle a tray
of eight cookies across
each row - decorated, iced,
and drizzled.
For further ease of use,
* Helps reduce repetitive
strain.
* Consistent and repeatable
performance.
* Easy to use graphic
interface for drawing or
writing patterns.
Baker-Bot can handle
custom recipes; one client
has 92 SKUs.
" The ROI is within two
years on average. If it's quicker, it's a bonus, " Bobyk says.
One of the Baker-Bot's previous setups involved a pizza dough
conveyor. Once the balls of dough were on the conveyor, Apex's
Baker-Bot would quickly grab a tray, then perfectly catch the
balls as they fell off the conveyor.

After the cobot had collected enough dough, it would place
that tray onto a stack of trays, then repeat the process as needed.
This automation setup has allowed bakers to automate this
part of the pizza dough production process, giving employees
the necessary free time to focus on other tasks.
Here are some other benefits and features of the Baker-Bot:
Collaborative, safe, and versatile
Reduces repetitive strain
Dual Racking - Once one rack is filled, it can be taken away
while the Baker-Bot begins loading the other rack.
Increase productivity and consistency - It works hour after
hour without a break.
CAKE DECORATING
Decorating is a very laborintensive
task that requires
skilled labor - the Baker-Bot is
the perfect option for a reduction
in workforce.
Benefits and Features:
* Collaborative, safe and
versatile.
" Baker-Bot is extremely
versatile and flexible.
It can be extremely precise
and consistent - and
saves labor costs. "
