Pacteon Group to Present End-of-Line Solutions at PACK EXPO East

Collectively, Pacteon brands Schneider Packaging Equipment Co., ESS Technologies, and Phoenix Wrappers have 80 years of expertise in end-of-line packaging and have installed over 10,600 machines. Pacteon’s end-of-line solutions for palletizing and stretch wrapping will be on display at PACK EXPO East in Booth 1145.

Schneider Packaging Equipment Co. will demonstrate their popular, compact Robox palletizer, an all-in-one unit for dispensing and robotically loading pallets with cases and other products. Robox is a modular and economical palletizer offered in over 20 pre-configured floor plans. 

With its compact footprint, the Robox easily adapts to changing layouts and utilizes OptiStak, allowing the freedom to set new or adjust pallet patterns directly from the HMI without new programming needed. The new module layout system also breaks down for easy pallet shipping.

ESS Technologies, Inc., teamed with Phoenix Wrappers to create a compact collaborative robotic pallet cell integrated with a Phoenix stretch wrapper. A FANUC CRX-25iA collaborative robot with custom end effector and programming palletizes from a case conveyor to a pallet placed directly on the turntable of a Phoenix PLP-2150 stretch wrapper. On completing the final layer, the robot signals the wrapper to automatically begin applying stretch film to the unitized load. The cost-effective system sets up in half a day or less and can be relocated with relative ease.

Phoenix Wrapper will also have the Model PLPA-2150 in Booth 1145. This non-conveyorized fully automatic stretch wrapper is a portable, safe, reliable, and easy-to-operate stretch wrapper. 

The forklift operator or pallet jack operator (with the use of ramp) places the pallet on the stretch wrapper and pulls the cord to activate the wrapping cycle. 

While it can be used as a stationary wrapping station, the PLPA-2150 offers the flexibility of being forklift-portable from the Front and the Back, so it can be easily moved around the warehouse wherever and whenever it is needed.
