Pack Flow: Seamless Automation for Soap and FMCG Production Lines

Industry: Soap, FMCG

Material Handled: Pouches, wrapped soaps, packets, units, bundles, cartons, bags, pallets

Product Category: Belt Conveyors

Activity to be Mechanized/Automated:

  • Convey soaps and detergent pouches from primary packing to secondary packing, and then to the tertiary packing area.
  • Package products in transit and capture information on the package, while palletizing the production packages for storage

Optimizing the packing process, this automated system streamlines the handling of soaps and FMCG products, from primary packing to palletizing, with ergonomic designs, accurate data capture, and minimal downtime, ensuring seamless productivity.
