“Handling plastic containers full of waste represented a bottleneck, especially during the emptying stage into the shuttles intended for incineration.”

• Fast and continuous emptying of containers
• Management of variable and not always uniform loads
• Need for a robust and reliable system
• Integration with the flow toward the incinerator

“We are talking about a complex environment, where material variability and operating conditions put any system to the test.”

• Automated system with articulated robots for gripping, handling and tipping containers
• Robust mechanical design to withstand harsh conditions
• Dedicated gripping systems to ensure stability during emptying
• Optimized handling logic to maximize speed

“The most important part was the design of the handling process: it had to be fast but also extremely reliable.”

• Significant increase in productivity
• Continuous process without manual interruptions
• High operational robustness over time
• Reduction in waste handling times

“Today the system works continuously and reliably. It has become a key element of the plant.”
