Granta Automation — UK Palletiser Manufacturer
Granta Automation is one of the UK's most experienced robotic palletiser manufacturers, designing, building, installing and supporting the complete palletiser range in-house. Established in 2006 and a KUKA Platinum and Yaskawa partner, Granta matches the right palletiser to your line rather than pushing one type.
The palletiser range covers every requirement. The modular palletiser is built on a patented, plug-and-play modular platform (patent EP3689539) that installs fast and reconfigures as production changes. The compact palletiser delivers high-speed palletising in a small footprint, with pallet-truck take-off and automatic pallet change — ideal for forklift-restricted sites. The cobot palletiser uses the industrial-grade Yaskawa HC30PL (30 kg payload, 140 kg robot) with dedicated force sensing to work safely alongside staff 24/7. The prebuilt palletiser is a self-install, factory-tested robotic palletiser openly priced from £57,900. Granta is also a UK specialist in automated container unloading, and supplies depalletising, cross-stacking and layer-forming palletisers.
What sets a Granta palletiser apart is its patented easy-programming software (patent GB2602358): your own operators set up a new pallet pattern in under five minutes, with no specialist programmer, while the software automatically orientates, groups and stacks product. Granta uniquely combines fast programming with fully automated row-gripping in one palletiser. Its gripper expertise — vacuum, bag, undergripper, row, layer, barrel and bespoke — palletises boxes, bags, sacks, trays, bottles and drums that defeat other palletisers.
Granta palletisers palletise over 30,000 products an hour, typically boost production ~40%, and often pay back within a year. Serving food, beverage, chemical, distribution, agriculture, construction and pharmaceutical manufacturers, every palletiser is ISO 9001:2022 certified, CE/UKCA compliant, and backed by in-house UK service, spares and support.
