By Rick Lingle
September 12, 2012

Today's case packers provide various takes on the concepts of flexibility, efficiency and space savings.

With PACK EXPO on the horizon, it is timely to note some advances in a major machinery category for equipment found on most automated packaging lines: case packers. We highlight several new case packing technologies (photo gallery below with Pack Expo booth number) that will be on display at the October 28-31 event in Chicago, along with advice from several machinery managers.

The versatile Swing Machine case packing system

With the ability to pack bags and cartons in stand-up and lay-down configurations on a single machine, the Swing Machine is a horizontal case packer that packs up to 300 bags per minute when using the company’s Smart-Trak™ collation and up to 400 bags per minute when using the Smart-Bin™ collation system. Even higher speeds can be reached with rigid containers.
