Although Multi-Conveyor has partnered with some of the industry’s most revered robotics pick and place manufacturing companies, our hand packing tables and stations will always have a need in the packaging industry.
Custom built pack stations are used for operator pack off, casing, and even inspection. Each pack station is designed to customer specifications with considerations to limit employee fatigue, abide by necessary sanitation, provide optimum accessibility and productivity. Powered belts, gravity roller case pack assist, or a combination of both are utilized in many of our designs.
As shown in this video, Multi-Conveyor will integrate with your equipment, assure a timely and efficient product transfer. Our mechanical designers make it work for your team, meeting ergonomics, floor spacing and meeting ever changing agency compliance.
During cold and flu season in the workplace cost-effective safe, hygienic and ergonomic hand pack conveyors or hand packing stations can incorporate clear poly-carbonate barriers spaced for operator safety. The length of the pack zones, number of conveyors or required side tables are determined by application, working with individual plant safety guidelines.
Case hand pack conveyors, can also use multi-construction levels. Automated conveyors using stainless steel construction for food products can transfer to a more cost-effective, common-sense mild-steel construction level at the hand packing area – saving you money.
A recent unique series of conveyors fed a racetrack style accumulation hand pack station. The hand-pack operators needed to be stationed along the outer length of the looping conveyor where they could easily grab and load product into cases prior to a case sealer.
Although newer robotics technology (video clip courtesy of Hamrick Packaging Systems showing Multi-Conveyor integration) might be taking center stage, sustainable hand pack stations will always have a secure place in Multi-Conveyor’s equipment line-up.
