New capabilities of secondary packaging systems focus on streamlined processes, total automation and increased flexibility.
Innovations in secondary packaging equipment include vision and scanning technology, as well as automation that simplifies the user interface and machine management. Increased flexibility for package size changes at high speeds is another capability in demand. All of this means that bakery and snack manufacturers can further improve productivity, as their wish lists often include more automation, the flexibility to handle multiple package sizes, the ability to use lighter gauge materials and the need to conform with existing and new regulations.
