BOTTLE HANDLING
The Lines That Cannot Afford a Dropped Bottle
External bottle gripping was built for one kind of customer: producers who move thousands of containers an hour and need every single one held the same way.
Beverage bottling and filling
PET, glass, and can lines where grip force and cycle speed decide the throughput of the whole plant.
Dairy and liquid food
Frequent washdowns and hygiene demands, handled by tooling with smooth, cleanable printed surfaces.
Pharmaceutical liquids
Vials and bottles that must be gripped externally, without ever touching the opening or the contents.
Cosmetics and personal care
Premium containers in unusual shapes, held firmly without marking the finish.
Household and chemical products
Heavier filled containers and aggressive line rates that reward strong, lightweight grippers.
Contract packaging operations
Co-packers who switch bottle formats constantly and need one gripper family that adapts.

What You Get When You Choose Anubis Robotic Tooling
Choosing us for your bottle handling means grippers shaped to your exact container, driven by a gear mechanism that centers every bottle the same way, every cycle. Here is what that looks like in practice.
Up to 30 percent lighter
SLS 3D printed nylon tooling cuts end of arm weight, so your robot cycles faster or carries more bottles per pick.
Fingers formed to your bottle
Gripper fingers are printed to match your container profile, spreading grip force evenly around the body.
Self centering grip
The sundial gear mechanism closes all fingers together, so every bottle ends up centered and repeatable.
Fits any robot brand
Mounting options for FANUC, ABB, KUKA, Universal Robots, Omron, and other major platforms, cobot or industrial.
Single or multi actuated
Run one gripper per robot or a full MAG row driven by a single actuator for whole case patterns.
Support in Europe
Engineering and application support from Eindhoven, backed by our engineering team in Canada.
