Palletizer manufacturers

A neutral, alphabetical list of palletizer makers by type: conventional, robotic cells, robot arms, and cobot palletizers. HQ, US presence, and product links.

Palletizers come from three kinds of companies. Machine builders make complete conventional or robotic palletizers. Robot makers make the arms. Cobot makers and integrators build smaller cells around those arms. This page lists examples of each, in alphabetical order inside each group. It is not a ranking. For the machine types themselves, see types of palletizers.

How we chose these makers

This list is not complete. Many more makers and integrators sell palletizers in the US.

We included a maker if it met three tests. It sells palletizers or palletizing robots in the US market. It has a palletizer product page on its own website. We could confirm its headquarters and US presence from its own site. We checked every entry in October 2026.

We don’t take payment for listings. Order inside each group is alphabetical. Speeds and payloads below are the maker’s ratings, not measured output in a plant. A maker’s absence means only that we didn’t check it.

Conventional and layer palletizer makers

A conventional palletizer builds a full layer of cases or bags on a table, then sets the layer on the pallet. This is called layer forming. High-level machines feed product in above the pallet. Low-level or floor-level machines feed it in near the floor. See conventional palletizers for how they work.

The Busse/SJI speeds use different units. Sweeps per minute and layers per minute are not cases per minute. Don’t compare them directly.

Robotic palletizer cell makers

These companies sell a complete robotic cell. A cell includes the robot, the end-of-arm tool (EOAT, the gripper), conveyors, pallet handling, guarding, and controls. Most buy the arm from a robot maker and add the rest. See robotic palletizers for cell layouts.

Robot arm makers with palletizing models

Robot makers sell arms built for palletizing. Many have 4 axes, a long reach, and a high payload. Payload is the weight the arm can carry, including the gripper. You usually buy the arm as part of a cell from an integrator or machine builder.

Maker Headquarters US presence Palletizing robot example
ABB Robotics Switzerland (ABB Ltd) US sales and service ABB rates its IRB 760 at a 450 kg payload and 3.2 m reach.
FANUC Japan FANUC America, Rochester Hills, Michigan FANUC says its M-410 series has “a capacity up to 700 kg and a reach up to 3.1 m.”
Kawasaki Robotics Japan (Kawasaki Heavy Industries) Kawasaki Robotics (USA), Wixom, Michigan Kawasaki’s palletizing robots run from 80 kg (RD80) to 700 kg (CP700L). The CP series covers 110 to 700 kg. The CP180L carries 180 kg with a 3,255 mm reach (brochure).
KUKA Augsburg, Germany KUKA Robotics Corporation, Michigan KUKA rates its KR QUANTEC PA family at 140 to 240 kg with a 3,195 mm reach.
Yaskawa Motoman Japan (Yaskawa Electric) Yaskawa America, Motoman Robotics Division, Miamisburg, Ohio PL, GP, and HC (cobot) series, with payloads from 20 to 800 kg across the range

ABB agreed to sell its robotics business. SoftBank Group says it “entered into a definitive agreement with ABB Ltd to acquire ABB’s robotics business.” SoftBank expected the deal to close in “mid-to-late 2026”. Ask ABB who will support your robot.

Headquarters for FANUC, KUKA, Kawasaki, and Yaskawa come from their FANUC America about page, KUKA about page, Kawasaki Robotics site, and Yaskawa locations page.

Cobot palletizer makers

A cobot is a collaborative robot. It is built to work near people at limited speed and force. A cobot palletizer is a small cell with a cobot arm, often on a pedestal between two pallets. Most handle cases under about 30 kg. See cobot palletizers for details.

A cobot arm does not make the cell safe by itself. Collaborative status comes from a risk assessment of the whole application under ISO 10218-2:2025 and ANSI/A3 R15.06-2025. The 2025 editions now include the collaborative guidance that used to sit in ISO/TS 15066. The gripper, the load, the speed, and the layout all count. Many cobot cells still use area scanners or fences.

A note on integrators

An integrator is a company that designs and builds a robot cell from parts made by others. It picks the arm, designs the gripper, and adds conveyors, safety devices, and controls. It then writes the programs and installs the cell. Universal Robots and Robotiq both point buyers to partners for cells built on their parts.

Ask the robot maker which integrators it works with near your plant. Ask each integrator who services the arm, the gripper, and the controls after startup. Also ask who signs off on the risk assessment.

How to use this list

Pick three or four makers that build the type you need. Send each one the same written spec. The buying guide shows what to include in a spec. Compare quotes line by line with the palletizer cost guide. It covers what a quote should include.

If a new machine is out of budget, see used palletizers. Many of these makers also sell parts and rebuilds for older machines. Before any cell starts up, check it against the guarding and lockout rules.

Common questions

Three kinds of companies. Machine builders make conventional and robotic palletizers. Robot makers such as FANUC, KUKA, and Yaskawa make the arms. Cobot makers and integrators build cells around those arms. This page lists examples of each, in alphabetical order.

No. It is a sample of makers that sell palletizers in the US and publish a palletizer product page. We checked each entry on the maker's own site in October 2026. Many other makers and integrators exist.

We don't rank makers. The right one depends on your products, rates, pallets, floor space, and local service. Use the step-by-step buyer guide to write your requirements, then ask several makers to quote the same spec.

Some sell only the arm and software. Others sell full cells. Many palletizing cells are built by integrators or machine builders around an arm from FANUC, KUKA, Yaskawa, ABB, or Kawasaki. Ask who owns the whole system, its safety design, and its service.

Not by default. Collaborative status comes from a risk assessment of the whole application, not from the robot alone. The US basis is ISO 10218-2:2025 and ANSI/A3 R15.06-2025, which now include the former ISO/TS 15066 guidance. Many cobot cells still use area scanners or other guarding. See how risk assessments work.
