Automatic Packaging Systems Can Save You Time And Money

By: Michiel Van Kets Home | Business


If you are still using employees to pack your products then it might be time for a fresh look at how you run your business in order to make it more professional and efficient. Opting to purchase automated packaging equipment will help you to help save both time and money, goals that all companies want to achieve.

When you think of all the time and people involved in manual packing, from preparing the product and sealing it to the labelling and packaging, it becomes obvious that there has to be a faster and more cost-effective method available. Packing, sealing and labelling by hand can take up a lot of time, if you have a backlog and have to employ temporary workers to help clear it then automating the whole procedure makes sense.

Automation can also get those bulk or rush orders completed in less time and allow you to accept a lot more orders without worrying about the turn around time.

Companies that have updated their packaging procedures to automated processes report a large increase in productivity, at least a 50% reduction in labour costs, and a considerable reduction in the start-to-finish process time. Machines can pack up to 5 times faster than if it is done manually, and there is no human error to account for, the system counts the number of packs/bags for each order with a 100% accuracy rate. Wastage is practically zero as the end result is much neater and more professional than if done by hand.

In-line printers can be added as a feature to provide a total ’print-n-pack†system whereby information including barcodes and graphics can be printed directly onto the bags. This feature offers a much more presentable package to the customer with information laser-printed onto bags making it very easy to read, or switch fonts, symbols and other labeling applications.

A high productivity packaging system can trim down your assembly time-line and shrink overheads by removing the need for a separate labelling procedure as it can be incorporated into the bagging process. Customer orders can be met at a much faster rate and this in turn will improve your company image. Due to being able to get your products out in the market at a speedy rate, you’ll have the prospect of accepting and processing large orders than normal as well as accepting last-minute orders. Product data can be stored on the PC system connected to the packaging machine and simply called up when a regular job comes in

Taking the decision to automate your packaging process will definitely have an effect on the quality of your product which will be improve customer’s opinion of the company and make the overall experience a lot more professional.

The Autobag PaceSetter PS 125 is an efficient autobag packaging machine whose design has been kept as simple as possible, it is also known for its flexibility, and excellent value as a hand load packaging application. With the ability to operate at speeds of up to 25 bags per minute, it offers a compact, lightweight option for a low to mid volume production situation.

The Autobag is very simple to use with an easy to read display that gives you information on operating parameters, job set-up, job storage, and on-board system diagnostics.

Comparable to the PS 125 is the PaceSetter PS 125 OneStep which has the added advantage of a built-in imprinter. Its next-bag-out printing technology is suited for short run and order fulfilment applications, and proficient at printing high resolution graphics, text and bar codes straight onto the bag, removing the call for for a separate labelling function. One of the main attributes to the printer is a tilt-back print head which makes it easy to maintain, you can also opt to have the AutoLabel label design software included which makes label creation straightforward.

Both systems are able to facilitate system-matched Autobag pre-opened bags-on-a-roll for an effortless and cost effective packaging solution.
