[0033] Working principle: 1. The empty cartons formed by the carton opener 7 are transported to the packing station via the carton conveyor track 2. After the carton is in place, the carton blocking cylinder 803 rises; 2. After the empty carton is in place at the packing station, the folding opening and closing cylinder 902 is activated to open the folding leaf; 3. The material transported from the front end is input through the feeding belt, and the counting and detection of 4 bags (set number) is completed. The material blocking cylinder 607 is blocked to prevent the rear end material from entering; 4. When the material is full of 4 bags, the material pushing cylinder is activated, and the collecting belt 605 rotates synchronously for a certain distance; when it is pushed 4 times (set number), the collecting belt 605 runs continuously, and the grabbing belt 604 runs synchronously; 5. When the material detection photoelectric 603 has a signal, the collecting belt 605 stops running, and the sorting cylinder 602 is activated; 6. The packing robot 501 is activated (this layout corresponds to three grabbing stations, as long as A single station meets the grabbing conditions), the packing gripper 5021 opening and closing cylinder 5023 is initially in a closed state. After grabbing the material, the robot rises, the opening and closing cylinder 5021 opens, and the material is placed in an empty carton (grabbing several times according to the set number of layers); 7. The folding opening and closing cylinder 902 is actuated to reset the cylinder; 8. The carton filled with materials enters the next process, and is checked in the weight inspection area for any missed grabs. If there are any missed grabs, the box pushing cylinder 802 is actuated to remove the carton; if it meets the requirements, it enters the carton sealing machine to seal the folding pages; 9. The sealed carton enters the palletizing area, and different quantities of cartons are grabbed and placed on the pallet according to the palletizing type; 10. The palletizing stations are divided into the first and second sides without interfering with each other. The empty pallet is manually placed in the station and the confirmation button is pressed; when the pallet stacking completion indicator light flashes, the full pallet is manually forked out and replaced with an empty pallet to enter.
