ABB, headquartered in Switzerland, is the earliest robot company. Early industrial robots were mainly used for welding and assembly. The most famous application example is the welding of automobile parts, but it has not been used for a long time in the field of palletizing and handling. Therefore, although ABB and KUKA have strong overall strength, FANUC is slightly superior in the field of palletizing, or we can say that ABB and KUKA are good at high-precision low-load operations, while FANUC and BU are good at low-precision high-load operations.
In addition, there are some imitation manufacturers in China, mainly imitation robots. When the work efficiency is not high, domestic industrial robots can also be considered.
In fact, the product prices of the four robots are not much different, but only robots are not enough. If palletizing is needed, product conveying line and sorting device, robot gripper, pallet conveying and separating device are needed. The cost of these supporting equipment may reach the price of the robot itself.
Generally speaking, how to choose a palletizing robot should not only consider the price, but also consider whether the scheme design is reasonable, including the selection of supporting devices and the load of the robot.
In addition, I would like to remind you that end users can't directly buy the products of these four brands, because they only make the robot host without supporting equipment, which means that the robot is actually a "big accessory" and the most critical accessory of the robot stacker. Manufacturing robot and manufacturing robot stacker are completely two concepts.
There are many manufacturers of robot stackers in China. They mainly make supporting equipment for robots, and then purchase four brands of robots and assemble them into robot stackers. Our company is such an enterprise. We mainly use ABB and FANUC robots.

If you want a robot stacker, just send the phone to my email and I'll arrange someone to contact you!
