Rethinking the operation could unlock more productivity, and the key to successful automated reverse packaging hinges on robot 3D vision system technology.
Although the Sinfonia system was introduced in 2023, this marks its first application for grind-line environments, where tray control, contamination and mechanical indexing have long limited achievable speeds.
The TFX line leverages optimized motion coordination and a redesigned vacuum system that shortens evacuation time — enabling faster, more predictable cycles for high-volume applications.
Starting with a clean slate to build your packaging line may be easier than incrementally adding automation, but you must know your products intimately and define your wants and needs of the line — and in the future.
SOMIC Packaging, Inc. worked closely with its German counterparts to design the larger facility, ensuring the commissioning hall was air conditioned and full of natural light.
PackML transforms the concept of individual machines in a packaging line to a single unified machine with component parts for packaging, making line changes and maintenance faster and easier.
