Ranpak, a packaging specialist, has added three new automated solutions to its portfolio, which will drive improved productivity.
Three new products integrate automation and protective paper technologies into solutions designed to empower packers to achieve higher quality, consistency, and sustainability, improve labor efficiency, and make packaging operations more ergonomic.
Available now to the European market, the PadPak Multi-Station automatically provides cushioning pads efficiently to the packer eliminating the need for multiple converters while also improving ergonomics. An automated line permits one central PadPak paper converter to provide up to ten continuous packing stations 100% recyclable, biodegradable and renewable paper pads. This is a highly modular and tailor-made solution designed to save space while allowing adaptable layouts to fulfill the specific requirements of each packaging job.
DecisionTower with FillPak Trident uses machine vision capabilities provided by Ranpak's DecisionTower solution to calculate voids, and then, through a linked FillPak Trident converter, dispense exactly the right amount of kerbside-recyclable paper void fill material. Combining advanced vision technology with sustainable paper-based packaging materials can reduce waste in the process as well as better consistency, bringing a better customer unboxing experience.
With active void measurement, according to Ranpak, this solution ensures that up to 35 percent of paper used is reduced simply by using FillPak's Trident converter: unique triangle paper pads dispensed for the proper filling of every given space within a minimum amount of paper materials and adjusted to fit differing types of box as well as other types of empty spaces for better user experience without the use of extensive operators.
