Redefining automation
Unlike conventional cobots, the award-winning tog.519 was designed for autonomous, high-performance tasks in compact production environments. With a footprint of just six square meters and a speed of up to 90 picks per minute, it sets new standards in packaging automation. Its advanced vision system identifies unsorted products directly from chaotic infeed streams and places them with precision – without the need for prior sorting. Tool changes can be carried out at the touch of a button, allowing the system to adapt instantly to new product types or formats.

A future-ready solution from Schubert
Building on Schubert’s 50-year tradition of pioneering packaging technology and its “we all tog.ether” philosophy that harmonizes human, robot, and machine collaboration, the tog.519 is more than just a product. It is a modular and future-proof solution that drives the next stage of intelligent manufacturing. The award in Brussels underlines this achievement and confirms the cobot’s importance for the entire industry.
