Group bottles, jars or cartons and load them into shipping cases according to your packing pattern.
Close and seal filled cartons or cases using a method suited to the carton style and shipping requirements.
Wrap individual products or grouped packs to help protect them and keep them together during handling.
Secure cartons or grouped packages with straps for more stable handling, storage and transport.
Stack finished cases on pallets and wrap the load according to your pallet pattern and output needs.
FROM FINISHED PRODUCT TO SHIPMENT
Connect packaging equipment after filling, capping, labeling and inspection. Each stage is configured around your product, case format and required output.
Finished products are transferred, oriented and grouped for the selected packing format.
Products are placed into retail cartons or shipping cases according to the required pack count.
Cartons or cases are sealed; wrapping or strapping can be added when required.
Packed cases are stacked on pallets and prepared for storage or shipment.
The actual line may use fewer or additional stages. Cartoning, case packing, wrapping, strapping and palletizing are selected to suit your project.
BEFORE CHOOSING YOUR EQUIPMENT
The right configuration depends on what you pack, how fast you need to run and how the equipment will fit into your existing production line.
Share product dimensions, weight, shape and orientation requirements so the handling method can be selected.
Confirm carton or case dimensions, material, closing style and the number of products in each pack.
Specify products and cases per minute or hour, including expected speed changes between production runs.
Identify which steps you need, such as cartoning, case packing, sealing, strapping and palletizing.
Provide pallet size, case stacking pattern and load stability requirements when pallet handling is included.
Check available floor space, conveyor height, machine speed and control interfaces with existing equipment.

Use confirmed products and packaging samples to evaluate handling, packing and changeover before delivery.
END-OF-LINE PACKAGING FAQ
Answers to common questions about equipment selection, line integration and customized packaging projects.
A system can include product grouping, cartoning, case packing, case sealing, shrink wrapping, strapping, palletizing and pallet wrapping. The equipment is selected according to your product and shipping format.
Often, yes. We first review your existing machine speeds, product discharge, conveyor height, available space and control interfaces to determine how the new equipment can be connected.
Multiple sizes may be possible through adjustments, saved settings or dedicated change parts. The supported size range and changeover method depend on the differences between your packaging formats.
We review the output of your upstream equipment, the number of products per carton or case, the required cases per hour and the operating speed of each packaging station. Transfer and accumulation can then be planned around the complete line.
Yes. You can begin with a single packaging operation and plan space and connection points for future stations. Let us know your expansion plans during the initial layout review.
Please provide product dimensions and weight, carton or case drawings, pack count, target output, required packaging steps and available floor space. If palletizing is needed, include pallet size and preferred stacking pattern. Product and packaging samples are helpful for testing.
