What Is Custom Robotics for Cannabis Manufacturing?
Custom robotics for cannabis manufacturing means purpose-built robotic cells and controls tailored to your products and workflow, not off-the-shelf machines. The cannabis industry is projected to exceed $134 billion in annual sales by 2030, driving pressure on manufacturers to scale production while maintaining quality and meeting regulations, with automation technologies like End-of-Arm Tooling (EOAT) playing a key role in this.
Robotics in cannabis production automates high-precision jobs to raise output and consistency.
In cannabis facilities, these solutions power:
Robotic assembly of cannabis tasks such as cone handling, dosing, and sealing
Cannabis quality control robots with vision for weight, fill, and defect checks
Automated manufacturing of cannabis packaging cells for labeling, case packing, and palletizing
These custom cannabis manufacturing robots streamline changeovers, capture production data, reduce waste, and lift line efficiency.
See How Sorting Robotics Can Revolutionize Your Cannabis Manufacturing Process
Integrating Sorting Robotics' custom robotics into your cannabis manufacturing process offers game-changing benefits.
