The requirement

Automating a multi-level case packing process.

The project required boxes to be prepared, inserted into larger outer cases, then closed and taped while keeping all four lines independent.

The solution

Robots, flap closing and taping in one system.

Forpac developed a robotic configuration for box preparation and insertion, with integrated automatic flap closing and taping across four independent lines.

  1. 01

    Preparation

    Automated preparation of the boxes to be handled.

  2. 02

    Robotic insertion

    Insertion of boxes into larger outer cases.

  3. 03

    Closing and taping

    Automatic flap closing and tape application.

Outcome

Four independent lines, eight formats handled.

The system was tested in its intended configuration to handle eight box formats across four independent lines.
