Description

Pack & Box automatic line

Pack & Box is an innovative and automated end-of-line packaging solution designed to optimize efficiency and productivity in production environments. This integrated system combines in a single line different processes, from case erecting to palletizing and final stretch wrapping, all controlled and supervised by a single operator.

Features

• Highly automated: Minimizes manual intervention, reducing operating costs and increasing efficiency.
• Flexible and adaptable: It is configured according to the specific needs of each product and available space.
• Productive: Reaches speeds of up to 720 units per hour, depending on product and configuration.
• Versatile: Handles a wide variety of products, boxes and packaging materials.
• Integrable: Easily integrates with existing conveying and pre-packaging systems.
• Robust and durable: Built with high quality components to ensure long-term reliable operation.
• Centralized control: A single control panel allows to operate and supervise the entire line in a simple and intuitive way.
• Safety: Incorporates safety systems to protect operators and prevent accidents.

Benefits

• Reduced operating costs: Less labor, product waste and material consumption.
• Increased productivity: Higher packaging speed and higher production capacity.
• Quality improvement: Consistent and uniform packaging that better protects products.
• Space optimization: Efficient use of space in the warehouse and during transport.
• Brand image enhancement: Professional packaging that reinforces the brand image of the product.
• Increased safety: Reduction of occupational hazards and accidents associated with manual packaging.

Operation

The products enter the grouper of the INBOX automatic case packer of our Pack & Box system and are accumulated according to the desired number and layers. The Pick&Place system of the INBOX picks them up and inserts them into the box that has been automatically assembled in the case erector. By means of motorized roller conveyors, the box moves and enters the case sealer, which closes it with adhesive tape on the top and bottom. The finished box follows its course by rollers until it reaches the end-of-line accumulator, where the robot picks it up and places it on the pallet on the rotary table of the stretch wrapper of our system. This process will be repeated until the palletizing is finished according to the parameters of the mosaic layout and number of layers of the selected program. At this point the stretch wrapper is put into operation to wrap the load with stretch film.

Compact version

In a 4 x 4 m space, this solution has a capacity of up to 1500 units/hour. This compact version dispenses with the INBOX and increases the use of the robot by making it responsible for both case packing and palletizing.

High production version

Incorporates all the elements of the Pack & Box automatic packaging line. By means of specific Inbox development and configurable layout. This solution has capacity for high production and adapts to the requirements of the final space of the line.

WRAP AROUND version

Solution that allows the folding of the box around the grouping of products through a nesting in a wrap-around packaging format.

In this version of the automatic Pack & Box packaging line, the final packing of the product is done with the WRAP AROUND case type. Both product grouping and case erecting are performed on the same machine. Once the desired product grouping has been achieved, the assembly passes to the next stage where the box is formed and closed around the product.

The WRAP AROUND solution represents a robust end-of-line packaging solution for high production. The versatility of being able to pack product groupings from their wrapping allows for a wide variety of packaging solutions.
