Project Overview

End-to-End Block Handling Automation

Ytong (Inrom Building Industries) needed a fully automated solution for their building block production line. As the industrial automation integrator Israel manufacturers trust, Xpert Robotics designed and integrated a complete robotic cell using the FANUC R-2000iC/125L — handling every step from depalletizing raw blocks through 3D inspection, precision cutting, leftover dispensing, and final palletizing onto outbound pallets. The system includes a custom automatic pallet dispenser designed and built by Xpert Robotics, and DNC stretch wrapping for complete pallet finishing. This robotic palletizing Israel deployment demonstrates end-to-end FANUC integration Israel capabilities — from concept to commissioning.

Automation Process

From Raw Block to Wrapped Pallet

  1. 01
    Depalletizing
    FANUC R-2000iC/125L picks raw building blocks from incoming pallets with precision grip tooling, handling varying block sizes and weights.
  2. 02
    3D Inspection
    Every single block (100%) passes through advanced 3D inspection — verifying dimensions, surface quality, and structural integrity before processing.
  3. 03
    Precision Cutting
    Blocks are cut to exact specifications based on the 3D inspection data, ensuring each block meets required dimensions.
  4. 04
    Leftover Dispensing
    Cut-off material and rejects are automatically dispensed and removed from the production line — zero manual cleanup required.
  5. 05
    Palletizing
    Finished blocks are palletized onto outbound pallets in optimized stacking patterns. Custom automatic pallet dispenser (designed by Xpert Robotics) feeds empty pallets on demand.
  6. 06
    Stretch Wrapping
    Completed pallets are automatically stretch-wrapped using the DNC wrapping system, ready for shipment with no human touch.
Key Equipment

Technology Behind the Cell

FANUC

FANUC R-2000iC/125L

Heavy-duty 6-axis robot with 130 kg payload and 3,100 mm reach — the workhorse handling depalletizing, block manipulation, and palletizing operations.

Xpert Robotics

Automatic Pallet Dispenser

Custom-designed and built by Xpert Robotics. Automatically feeds empty pallets into the cell when the robot requires a new pallet — fully integrated with the cell controller.

DNC

DNC Stretch Wrapper

Industrial stretch wrapping system that automatically wraps completed pallets with nylon film, securing the block stack for safe transport and storage.
