RoboPacker is here! JBT Marel’s latest innovation in advanced robotics is designed to reshape packing lines and become the perfect companion for salmon processors worldwide. Reducing labor dependency, improving throughput and providing excellent styling, the RoboPacker automates the manual task of packing and styling catch- or fixed-weight salmon portions into trays, not only enhancing efficiency but also improving food safety standards.
The journey towards RoboPacker began more than twenty years ago:
- 2014 – RoboBatcher Flex
- 2017 – RoboBatcher Thermoformer
- 2019 – RoboBatcher Box
With each innovation, the RoboBatcher robotics have solved challenges for fish processors with increased automation. In 2025, over 350 JBT Marel robots will handle 3.8 million pieces of protein, saving processors worldwide millions in product optimization and operational efficiency.
Our latest innovations provide gentle gripper technology and improved hygiene to keep product quality at its highest.
Excellence built on legacy
The RoboPacker builds on decades of expertise, taking automation to the next level and revolutionizing the packing of catch- or fixed-weight salmon portions into trays for salmon processors.
