RPI Robotic Pulp Insertion for Candles

This video shows Pearson Packaging Systems’ RPI Robotic Pulp Inserter in action, automating the insertion of protective pulp trays into cases on a high-output candle and home-fragrance line. Inside a single compact robotic cell, a FANUC robot picks pre-formed pulp trays from an inline magazine and places them into RSC cases at up to 20 trays per minute, while custom end-of-arm tooling, controlled singulation, and tool-free changeover keep every placement consistent across multiple pulp and case sizes. It’s made for operations managers, plant engineers, procurement teams, and maintenance leads evaluating how robotic pulp insertion can protect throughput, improve line reliability, and cut the manual handling that slows packout — so operators can spend less time tending the insertion step and more time keeping the whole line moving.
