Device (100) for unpacking a
pallet (500) containing products (510) arranged in
layers on or against a base (520) or plate, wherein the
pallet (500) is coated or covered with a protective film (550) for holding and protecting the products (510), configured to cover the top surface (501) and the side surface (502) of the
pallet (500) at least up to the base (520); wherein the device (100) comprises: • a
cutting device (110) for performing the
cutting of the protective film (550) in order to separate the protective film (550) into at least two segments (550s), each comprising: - an upper flap or flap (551s) of an upper section (551) of the film (550) on the upper surface (501) of the pallet (500), and - a lower flap or flap (552s) of a side section (552) of the film (550) on the side surface (502) of the pallet (500); • Removal means configured to move the segments (550s) formed by the
cutting device away from the pallet (500); • at least one anthropomorphic
robot (200) on which the cutting device (110) is installed; • Transfer and / or carrier means (170) configured to position the pallet (500) in a work area of the anthropomorphic
robot (200); characterized in that the transfer and / or carrier means (170) comprise a rotary device (171) configured to rotate the pallet (500) about a
vertical axis of symmetry (Z) of the same when the pallet is positioned on the anthropomorphic
robot (200).
