The best of Robopac and Ocme innovation at Pack Expo Chicago
Monday 24. October 2022 - 23-26 October 2022: a date that marks the important return of an equally decisive event. We are talking about Pack Expo International, the important international trade fair for the packaging and processing sectors which, after 4 years, is again back on stage in Chicago - USA.
A dynamic and complete event, with training sessions, networking opportunities and, above all, with the presence of all the key players, ready to bring technological and process innovation to the fore.
Among the most important protagonists, Robopac and OCME will exhibit at Booth North Hall #5906 the most innovative, tested and reliable end-of-line packaging solutions that the Group has created to effectively meet the needs of different product sectors. A demonstration of the evolutionary power that Aetna Groups know how, together with its production subsidiary Robopac USA, is constantly able to transmit and spread all over the world. This is only possible thanks to the One Global Company logic that places quality and service as the essential cornerstones of its international presence, guaranteeing the excellence of Made in Italy in the world’s most important markets.
Among the technologies of excellence in the field of Stretch Wrappers, the stand will host Robot S7, the super flexible, self- propelled stand alone with stretch film and R-Connect technology, in line with all industry 4.0 requirements and ideal for handling products of any size, shape and weight. There will also be Technoplat, for fully automatic pallet wrapping: it is inserted at the end of the wrapping cycle to cut, fix and weld the final part of the film; then there will be Masterwrap HD, a semi-automatic rotating arm wrapping machine, ideal for stabilizing unstable and heavy loads.
There will also be the new Orbit R horizontal stretch wrapper with rotating ring, which can be added to integrated work cells or lines and is designed to handle, with speed and efficiency, elongated products such as doors, windows, cabinets, aluminum extrusions and flooring. Directly from US production comes the LT Automatic Stretch Wrapper, the new turntable stretch wrapper which, with its 40 pallets/hour, is a high-level entry level, guaranteeing high performance in terms of speed, reduced dimensions, lower film consumption and greater safety for operators.
Then there are the main packaging solutions: starting with the Prasmatic TC line of case packers, ergonomic, modular, flexible, with fast format changeover and production between 35 and 85 packs per minute. The Sotemapack WA 20, on the other hand, is the solution with compact dimensions for speeds of up to 20 packs/minute and alternating operation, available in various configurations and perfect for handling products such as flexible pouches and rigid envelopes.
These two technologies will then be the subject of live demos: the first will handle trays of various sizes and bottle packaging, while the second will handle rice packs.
Completing the offer at Pack Expo will be TopTier palletizers, available with integrated stretch wrapping, and intralogistics solutions by OCME that, with laser-guided LGVs, reduce labor costs and, at the same time, improve production efficiency.
Robopac and OCME, in synergy with the Group’s companies present in the United States, will therefore be among the top players of the exhibitors to bring the best of innovation in terms of technology, R&D and customer service, guaranteeing once again the excellence of the Aetna Group in the world.
