AUTOG | PRESSWOOD PALLET PRODUCTION AUTOMATION
The customer scenario: hot press offloading is hard to staff
Presswood pallet take-out robot: how AutoG helps molded wood pallet plants keep hot-press offloading continuous when high-temperature jobs are difficult to staff and night-shift labor is unstable. AutoG removes finished pallets from the press, transfers them by vacuum suction, and places them at the stacking position, with one robot serving two molded pallet hydraulic presses.
Why manual take-out becomes the bottleneck
The conventional arrangement assigns a take-out worker to each press. With two presses, that can mean about two people repeatedly entering the press-side workflow, removing hot pallets, carrying them to the next position, and stacking them. Waiting for pallets to cool can add press-side delay; removing them hot increases the demand on the operator. Manual work also makes continuous night production dependent on attendance, training, and shift handover. This is the operational gap between a semi-automatic pallet line and a fully automatic pallet production line.
Why AutoG fits the press-side application
AutoG is designed for this specific boundary: the outlet of a molded wood pallet hydraulic press. It is not the press itself and not a general-purpose bag or carton palletizing robot. After the press opens, the automatic take-out robot enters the mold area, grips the finished pallet with a vacuum suction gripper, transfers it away from the hot press, and places it in the stacking position. One arm can tend two presses in an alternating cycle. During pressing at one machine, it waits or serves the other machine, then switches when a press completes its cycle. This one-arm-two-press arrangement helps use the robot across the production rhythm instead of dedicating one operator to each hot outlet.
Visible structure and confirmed operating evidence
The AutoG configuration uses a six-axis articulated robot arm for up, down, left, right, forward, and backward movement plus turning or rotation needed for take-out and stacking. The vacuum suction end effector is visible in the product image, together with the articulated arm, cable chain, base, and stack light. The equipment description confirms safe handling of pallets at approximately 80°C. In the factory context, the robot works with the press, conveyors, upstream forming equipment, and line control logic rather than replacing the hydraulic press. The available source brief also describes approximately 4–5 minutes per pallet with MDI adhesive on the press side; actual cycle matching must be confirmed in the project design.

- The article states only confirmed AutoG facts: one arm serving two presses, six-axis motion, vacuum suction transfer, approximately 80°C pallet handling, and the 24-hour claim as source-described operating continuity.
- The article distinguishes AutoG as a press-side automatic take-out and stacking component, avoids unconfirmed robot specifications, and includes a contact CTA.
