About Joulin

Joulin is a French vacuum handling company that describes itself as the inventor of the foam vacuum gripper and states more than 60 years in vacuum handling. Its official site ranges from a single foam gripper integrated on a palletising robot to complete turnkey stackers for the wood industry. The foam gripper automatically senses product presence and closes check valves in uncovered areas, so the same gripper can pick a complete layer, a partial layer or a single part without additional set-up or reprogramming. For general industry, the site shows applications handling cartons, glass jars, layers of cans and wrapped products for palletising and depalletising.

For the wood industry, its gantry stacker and destacker systems handle CLT panels, infeed and outfeed of production lines, sticking and desticking around dry kilns, and sorting at band saw outfeed. Joulin states it has manufacturing and design facilities in Europe and the USA and that customers in 60 countries and counting use its systems, supported by spare foams, accessories and documentation including CAD files. Since May 2022 it has been part of the Piab group. For directory buyers, Joulin is a layer-handling specialist for food, packaging and timber lines.
