One-Piece Packaging concepts

Wrap-Around All-purpose and flexible. Each SOMIC 424 packaging machine is based on an integrated mechatronical system with autonomic function units. Optimal results are guaranteed by format instruments which are designed specifically upon your packaging requirements. SOMIC machines are unique.

Attractive Retail Packaging

Collating and Grouping Convenient Display Packaging

The handling of multifaceted prepackaged products makes high demands. The prepackaged products are arranged individually in rows, layers and complete groupings. Robotic portals fulfill this task quickly and precisely. They ensure gentle treatment even to sensitive and fragile products.

Cartoning Open Tray Packaging

The blank is folded around the entire product grouping and glued with hotmelt. Due to the enclosed folding head precise folding and gluing of the carton is always guaranteed. We use our folding head, not your product to form the case.

Closing Safe Transport Shipping Packaging

The cover flaps are folded inside the closing module and glued with hotmelt.


Multi-Part Packaging concepts

Tray-Cover Customized and flexible. Almost every SOMIC packaging machine is equipped for multiple product dimensions, collations and case designs. Due to the mechatronical principle and especially the adapted software components it is possible to copy any format quickly and precisely.

Collating and Grouping Trays with cover inside

The individual collating and grouping module generates rows, layers and complete case contents from pre-packed products. For this the machines have collating units i.g. lamella chains, row pushers and pre-stacking units designed for the specific requirements. For a gentle and precise handling of sensitive and soft products there are robot portals with pushers, gripper heads or pick & place tools.

Cartoning and Covering Trays with cover outside

The cartoning and covering is carried out in two steps consecutively. In a first step the tray is erected from the flat blank around the product grouping and then glued. Afterwards the covering is carried out in a separate unit. For product-safety and tamper-evident closure tray and cover can be locked mechanically or glued with hotmelt.


Format Change

Service

Globally competent and reliable.

All format part changes, settings and programs are provided in a checklist with a simple step-by-step explanation. With the all-purpose SOMIC-QuickChange-Adapters, every format parts can be replaced quickly and safely. The exact format parameters are reproduced by the control system each time automatically. Readjustments are not required. For repeated product and packaging adjustments, which may become necessary during production, even fully automated format adjustments are feasible.

Operation

Training of your operation- and maintenance-staff

Clearly arranged and easy. The open architecture of the machine provides a perfect overview and best accessibility to all function units. A special highlight is the ergonomic working level of only 990 mm. The rotatable and traversable touch panel provides for an intuitive operation of the machine. The clearly arranged 15"-screen allows an easy operation through text-independent symbols and images. Three different operation modes are readily identifiable through different base colors: Automatic mode All relevant data are reported actively during regular operation. In case of machine stoppage the cause is explained in a easy to understand way and indicated on the HMI. Directions for troubleshooting are supplemented with graphic illustrations. Setting mode This mode is used for format changes. It supports the operator during the step-by-step adjustment up to the reference run as well as the start of the automatic operation in a new format. Service mode For every inspection or service task the service technician can choose the suitable operations mode out of various options.

We have a deep understanding of your business and markets. Our packaging solutions are used in over 30 countries worldwide.
