    The K-Bot Palletizer is billed as a basic and low-cost unit for firms that are testing the waters in automated end-of-line solutions.
    Designed to move up to 175 lb, it is a four-axis, floor-level palletizer capable of running single or dual-line applications at a rate of up to 10 cycles/min. The K-Bots compact 62 3 104-in. footprint allows for pallet sizes of up to 48 3 48 in. and unit loads up to 72-in. high. It is dual function, serving as a palletizer and depalletizer.
