Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE)

Pick "The Original"

BUILT FOR EFFICIENCY,
ENGINEERED FOR OUTPUT

A cup of coffee or tea with a sweet treat—those quiet moments mean everything to your customers. Behind the scenes, though, it takes high-speed precision to make that moment possible.


To consistently meet demand and keep food affordable, your production and packaging need to be fast, efficient, and cost-effective.


That’s where Schubert comes in. Our pick-and-place machines are engineered for reliability, speed, and consistent quality—delivering exceptional Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE). With over 800 systems in operation worldwide, Schubert is the trusted leader in high-performance packaging solutions.

Real-time insights
that drive durability

Live Machine Monitoring
Through the Schubert customer portal, 4YOUconnect, maintenance teams can monitor system performance in real time. Any irregularities can be addressed immediately, preventing costly, unplanned downtime.

Long Service Life
Schubert robots are built to last, designed for 40,000 hours of continuous operation, with our pick-and-place systems averaging 20 years of service. The longest-running system, operating since 1998 at a customer site in the Netherlands, exemplifies this durability.

End-to-End Manufacturing
All machine components are sourced from a single provider and integrated via Schubert’s packaging machine control system (VMS). This ensures seamless compatibility, minimizing interfaces and eliminating conflicts. With optimal coordination of control and mechanics, our machines achieve up to 99% availability.

Compact design,
powerful performance

Compact Design
Our self-developed 4-axis robots can fit up to six units in a single machine frame, saving 5-10% more space than other pick-and-place machines, while maintaining the same high performance.

Robot Kinematics for Every Need
Our SCARA robot offers a wider working range than delta robots, and it’s just as fast. It can handle product lines up to 2 meters wide and even manage two product lines simultaneously in our packing systems for mixed packs.

Smart Robots
Equipped with a vision system, Schubert robots have "eyes" and a "brain." The Message Browser directs you straight to the root cause, while the 3D Viewer helps you pinpoint parts precisely and order replacements online via the 4YOUconnect customer portal.

No crumbs, no cracks,
no compromise

Automated Quality Control
Advanced 2D and 3D scanners inspect every single product with precision—no broken cookies or flattened cakes make it through.

Gentle Product Handling
Our robots grip with just the right amount of force—delicate, accurate, and reliable. With product-specific grippers and suction tools, even flaky croissants and stuffed pasta are packaged without damage.

Minimized Product Handling
Long conveyor belts can stress products and become hygiene risks. Schubert robots move items directly to the packaging, reducing waste and keeping your line cleaner and more efficient.
