The new standard in robotics education
AI is quickly changing the field of robotics. In the not-so-distant future, AI-powered automation will help robots see, reason, and adapt. At Standard Bots, we believe that keeping apace and driving innovation in the field starts in the lab and in the classroom.

FAQ
Installing a palletizing robot typically takes only a few days when the layout, gripper, and patterns are finalized in advance. Plan one on-site day for placement and wiring, then run patterns and sign off after sample SKUs prove cycle time.
Preparing your facility for a palletizing robot means marking pallet positions, verifying infeed height and clearance, confirming power and network runs, and designating a safety zone. Review our implementation considerations to lock patterns, cycle targets, and changeover steps.
Standard Bots’ palletizer accommodates corrugated boxes, shrink-wrapped bundles, trays, and small totes. With the right gripper, it also handles vented or glossy surfaces. Provide dimensions, weights, and porosity to finalize the end effector.
Palletizing cobots best serve food & beverage, consumer goods, pharma, cosmetics, electronics, and 3PLs that need frequent changeovers, ergonomic relief, and predictable stacking at the end of the line.
The best robot for palletizing automation is chosen by matching payload, reach, case size, and pallet height to your line. Confirm required cycles per minute with your heaviest SKU and pattern. If you run mixed cases, prioritize vision and quick re-teach.
Palletizing means stacking products, usually boxed cases, onto a pallet in a defined pattern for storage or shipping. For examples and common patterns, see our guide on what palletized means.
Core is designed and built in the USA and assembled in Glen Cove, New York.
Our goal is to increase the likelihood of your success with our robot. We start with a 45 minute meeting to review videos of your task and discuss solutions. We may recommend a free engineering analysis, the results of which we’ll include in your quote. There is no charge for any of this.
Core integrates directly with conveyors, linear actuators, vertical lifts, safety devices and much more - with easy or no wiring. This includes electrical and mechanical compatibility with the most popular robot end effector ecosystems. Core works great with products from OnRobot, Schunk, Robotic, Piab, Schmaltz, ATI, and more.
We design all of our own hardware and software with the mission of making automation accessible to everyone. Our first principles approach to designing our own parts allows us to dramatically reduce costs while also making the most capable and performant robot in its class.
Shop-floor operators can setup and program our robot within minutes. No understanding of code needed.
Core is easy to integrate into any manufacturing and machining setup and supports a wide range of uses cases including machine tending, palletizing, inspection, metrology, and more.
Core has an integrated 3D camera on its wrist that can identify and locate parts for pickup, read machine screens (e.g. to know if the machine is running or not), or to inspect objects (coming soon).
