Intermittent, Wrap Around

Challenge 

This is an excellent example of an RML multi-module solution as we have automated the packing line for Prolife all the way from the individual flow-wrapped Oaty Slice bars, which are cartoned up and then these cartons placed into a range of shelf-ready cases. See the Prolife Continous, Horizontal Cartoner

We have an 18+ year trusted partner relationship with Prolife, and this robust working relationship has been paying dividends in terms of speed and efficiency since we started working together.  

Talk to our technical sales team about the Return-on-Investment potential when you automate a high-speed factory packing line such as this. 

Solution 

Cartons are collated using a servo-controlled racetrack and an RML 2 axis Robotic loading module, which provides a smooth transfer into a range of differently sized shelf-ready case formats – either single or double facing in the supermarket aisle.

We ensured that a single operator could quickly and easily change out the cardboard blanks to suit production scheduling.
