100kg Payload Palletizing Robot for Heavy Bags: SZGH-B2700-100 with Customized Gripper
Oct 21,2026
Important note on payload: The robot’s 100kg payload includes the weight of the customized gripper. The actual weight of bags the robot can handle depends on the gripper design. Please consult SZGH engineers to confirm the suitable bag weight for your specific gripper configuration.
This article explores the capabilities of the SZGH-B2700-100, its customized gripper design, key applications, and why it is the smart choice for manufacturers looking to upgrade their heavy bag palletizing operations.
1. The Challenge: Why Heavy Bag Palletizing Needs Automation
Manual palletizing of heavy bags is one of the most taxing jobs in any factory. A worker lifting 50kg bags for an eight-hour shift faces severe physical strain. Back injuries, shoulder problems, and chronic fatigue are common. As labor costs rise and skilled workers become harder to find, many factories struggle to maintain consistent output.
Beyond labor, manual bag stacking has other problems:
· Inconsistent stacking: Human workers place bags unevenly, leading to unstable pallets that can collapse during transport.
· Slow throughput: Manual palletizing is slow, often creating a bottleneck at the end of the production line.
· Product damage: Dropped or misaligned bags can tear, causing material loss and cleanup costs.
· Safety risks: Heavy bags falling from pallets can cause serious injuries.
Automated palletizing solves all these problems. A palletizing robot works continuously without fatigue, places every bag with precision, and eliminates the risk of ergonomic injuries. For heavy bags, however, standard grippers are not enough. That’s where the SZGH-B2700-100 with its customized bottom support gripper stands out.
2. Introducing SZGH-B2700-100: A 100kg Payload Palletizing Robot
The SZGH-B2700-100 is a 4-axis articulated palletizing robot specifically designed for heavy-duty applications. Its robust construction and high payload capacity make it ideal for handling large, heavy bags and packaged materials.
Specification SZGH-B2700-100 Benefit
Payload-100kg | (including gripper) Total payload capacity; actual bag weight depends on gripper |
Working Reach 2700 mm | Covers large pallet areas and multiple stations |
Repeatability ±0.2 mm | Ensures precise bag placement every cycle |
Structure 4-axis articulated | Optimized for high-speed stacking |
Protection IP54 | Resists dust and moisture in demanding environments |
With a 100kg total payload (robot + gripper), the SZGH-B2700-100 can handle heavy bags in industries like fertilizer, cement, and feed. The actual bag weight capacity depends on the gripper weight — please contact us for a precise assessment. The 2700mm reach allows it to stack on standard pallets without repositioning, and the ±0.2mm repeatability ensures every bag is placed exactly where it should be.
3. Customized Bottom Support Gripper: The Key to Stable Heavy Bag Handling
What makes the SZGH-B2700-100 truly effective for heavy bags is its customized bottom support gripper. Standard vacuum or clamp grippers often struggle with heavy, porous, or irregularly shaped bags. The bottom support gripper solves this by supporting the bag from underneath, preventing it from slipping or tearing during transfer.
Key features of the customized gripper:
· Bottom support plate: Distributes the bag’s weight evenly, preventing sagging.
· Side clamps: Hold the bag securely during high-speed movement.
· Adjustable width: Accommodates different bag sizes (e.g., 25kg, 50kg; final bag weight depends on gripper design).
· Quick-change design: Allows fast switching between bag types.
This customized gripper ensures stable picking, smooth transferring, and accurate stacking. It is especially valuable for bags with slippery surfaces, such as plastic-woven fertilizer bags or paper cement sacks. SZGH designs each gripper based on your specific bag dimensions and weight — contact us to confirm the suitable bag weight for your application.
4. Key Applications: Industries That Benefit from SZGH-B2700-100
The SZGH-B2700-100 heavy bag palletizing robot is suitable for a wide range of industries:
Fertilizer Industry
Fertilizer bags are heavy, often 50kg, and must be stacked on pallets for shipping. The SZGH-B2700-100, with an appropriately designed gripper, handles these bags efficiently. Automatic palletizing reduces labor costs and prevents injuries.
Cement and Building Materials
Cement bags are dusty, heavy, and abrasive. Manual handling exposes workers to dust and physical strain. The SZGH palletizing robot with its customized gripper can operate in dusty environments (IP54 protection) and stack cement bags reliably.
Animal Feed
Feed bags come in various sizes and weights. The SZGH-B2700-100 can be programmed to handle different bag types with quick gripper changes. It stacks feed bags on pallets for storage and transport.
Food and Bulk Materials
For bulk food products like flour, sugar, and rice, the SZGH palletizing robot ensures hygienic, consistent stacking. The robot can be configured with food-grade grippers if required.
Other Heavy Bag Applications
The SZGH-B2700-100 is also suitable for chemical powders, minerals, and other bagged materials — with bag weight capacity confirmed based on the gripper design.
5. Benefits of SZGH Heavy Bag Palletizing Automation
Investing in a SZGH-B2700-100 palletizing robot delivers measurable benefits:
Increased Throughput
The robot works continuously without breaks, stacking bags faster than manual labor. Depending on bag size and pallet pattern, it can stack hundreds of bags per hour.
Reduced Labor Costs
A single palletizing robot can replace 2-3 workers per shift. For a two-shift operation, that’s 4-6 workers redeployed to higher-value tasks.
Consistent Quality
Every bag is placed with ±0.2mm repeatability, creating stable, uniform pallets that reduce product damage during transport.
Improved Safety
Automating heavy lifting eliminates ergonomic injuries and reduces workers’ compensation claims.
Fast ROI
Most manufacturers achieve payback within 12-18 months through labor savings and increased output.
