Considerations for Running New-Era Materials on Existing or Older Equipment
Baggers, vf/f/s, hf/f/s, and flow-wrappers long have used the same suite of multi-layer flexible packaging for food products with a need for shelf life, puncture and tear resistance, etc. But in recent years, a spate of new materials — namely mono-material, paper-based, and compostable films — have come on the scene. But brands and CPGs have largely installed bases of existing equipment tuned specifically for robust, tear- and puncture-resistant materials with forgiving seal temperature ranges. The newer materials don’t abide by existing specs — the materials may be more brittle, less tear- or puncture-resistant, and seals require longer or shorter dwell times at different temperatures. Can existing equipment be modified or retrofitted to accommodate? If so, will that affect speeds and throughputs, especially if gentler handling is required? Will all new equipment be necessary?

Rethinking Packaging Robotics: Prioritizing Flexibility to Combat Brittleness
This is the first e-book in our three-part series on rethinking robotics.
The basis for this series was an enlightening Harvard Business Review (HBR) article titled, “A Smarter Strategy for Using Robots” by Ben Armstrong and Julie Shah. In the article, the writers discuss brittle automation, a term used to describe when packaging robotics are unable to quickly be changed to handle new tasks.
To create this e-book, our editors spoke with CPG companies, systems integrators, OEMs, and one of the HBR article authors to learn more about automation brittleness. Through their insights, we identified key strategies for adding in system flexibility to soften brittle automation. Learn how to guard against the traps that CPGs sometimes inadvertently set for themselves when implementing robotics that lead to such brittleness in the first place.
Unveil strategies to justify your robotics investment while enhancing worker satisfaction, safety, and productivity across your manufacturing operations in the second installment of our three-part Robotics e-book series.
Rethinking Packaging Robotics: Financial Justification Strategies explores the next frontier in automation, focusing on “positive-sum automation” — a strategy that enhances human capabilities rather than replacing them. Through insights from industry experts and thought leaders, this e-book offers actionable key performance indicators (KPIs) that measure robotic success beyond productivity, including safety, quality, and workforce engagement.
Empower your team and optimize your operations with modern robotics strategies that make financial sense for today and tomorrow.
Rethinking Packaging Robotics: Reducing Risk in Packaging Robotics Projects
How do companies justify and implement robotics, and who are the key people involved? Which one lends itself to more success: a bottom-up approach with line workers making recommendations or top-down with management and C-suite making the decisions?
In the final installment of our three-part Robotics e-book series, you’ll learn the secrets for success and how to reduce risk in your robotics project while allowing decision-makers to see the entire project picture.

SOMIC Packaging, Inc.
www.us.somic-packaging.com
So many milestones have been achieved since we exhibited at PACK Expo in Chicago two years ago. Last year, we debuted our next generation SOMIC 434 system. This year, our corporate parent SOMIC celebrated its 50th golden anniversary in Germany. Here in the United States, we reached our tenth anniversary and recently completed a move into larger new headquarters that we built with future success in mind.
Moving to our spacious facility in suburban Minneapolis was two years in the making. In doing so, we nearly quadrupled the footprint from 13,000 to 48,000 square-feet of space to accommodate our rapid growth in the past five years.
This investment is designed to facilitate the assembly of all new North American machines, and increase our warehousing capabilities to have a larger inventory of critical parts and consumables. We also committed additional resources to help support the implementation of new procedures and the hiring of additional staff members.
The SOMIC brand has acquired a reputation for flexibility, reliability and versatility, and that has not changed with the 434 case-packing system. With advanced product sorting features and alignment technology, this compact machine offers more case sizes and larger format arrangements for the grouping of end-of-line case, tray and carton packing products.
Some new features were added in the past year. It remains 70% faster than previous systems, with single and multi-row grouping and multi-layer stacking of flat sachets, stand-up flexible pouches, and every type of can, cup, tray, jar, bottle, tube and blister-pack you can imagine.
The 434 now has a combined SOMIC QuickChange system, with an automatic adjustment to prevent incorrect operation and allow for fast and easy changeovers. The stainless steel frame also has machine-height safety doors with improved accessibility and LED corner lighting for enhanced visibility.

Markem-Imaje
Markem-Imaje is a global leader, specializing in innovative product identification, packaging intelligence, and connected product solutions. Our End-to-End Supply Chain solutions unlock the power of intelligence in codes! Move to 2D barcodes now to meet regulatory compliance demands, current and future.
Consumer goods segments, including FMCG and pharma, face the perennial issues of regulatory compliance, consumer safety, and the need for efficient supply chain management. One of the most effective ways to address these challenges, both now and in the immediate future, is by implementing 2D barcodes on the packaging of products. 2D barcodes, such as QR codes, Data Matrix codes, and others, offer a powerful tool for helping to ensure compliance with regulations, including the U.S. GS1 has already launched its 2D barcode standards, the GS1 Digital Link, anticipating the demand for a globalized standard in 2D barcode printing and a gradual move away from traditional 1D barcodes.
Preparing for future regulatory demands: As global supply chains become more complex and consumer expectations for transparency increase, future regulations will likely place even greater emphasis on traceability, safety, and information accessibility. By adopting 2D barcode printing technology, companies can comply with current regulations and position themselves to meet future demands.
For instance, as sustainability becomes a more significant concern, regulators may require detailed information on products’ environmental impact, such as carbon footprints, sourcing practices, and recycling instructions. 2D barcodes can store relevant data in a compact and accessible format, enabling companies to meet these potential future requirements without overhauling their labeling processes. For this reason, brands across the FMCG sector are implementing 2D barcode strategies to get ahead of the regulatory curve, among other reasons, like boosting brand loyalty and opening new marketing opportunities.

Novanta Photonics
We design and manufacture mission-critical core laser components and sub-systems that deliver extreme precision and performance, enabling our customers to improve productivity, achieve breakthrough performance, and enhance people’s lives.
Agility is key, modern converting, packaging, and labeling systems employ a laser system to keep pace with shifting market demands. If shorter runs, higher degrees of complexity, variations within a single run, and extreme tolerances are just some of the challenges you face today, then integrating a laser system may be the solution you are looking for.
Laser systems also enable manufacturers to produce features that are impossible and/or impractical to cut, perforate, or score with a traditional system. A traditional mechanical process simply cannot match a digitally controlled laser processing system that is very adaptable, and capable of performing multiple processes often in a single pass. Unlike most mechanical systems, laser systems can be combined with other equipment to provide customized late-stage alterations, even to finished goods. Using advanced software technology and pin-point precision, laser systems enable zero-contact marking and coding, rapid prototyping, economical short runs, on-demand production, and full customization to support demanding customer needs.
New to laser systems and/or interested in integrating a laser system? We offer unique application testing to determine the right system for your application. Our application labs are strategically located across the globe and are equipped with the latest laser processing and testing equipment and staffed with highly experienced laser processing engineers.

Multi-Conveyor
We are a custom and standard conveyor manufacturer. Our products are multiple and unique. No one product defines Multi-Conveyor. We’ve designed and engineered some of the most simplistic to most revered conveyor solutions ever manufactured.
The goal is to provide a more functional, affordable conveyor while maximizing productivity or saving essential floor space in the process. Our Designers and Engineers factor in safety, ease of use, maintenance, longevity, sanitation and agency compliance (as required) using quality components, making sure to meet or exceed your requirements.
We bring technology driven operator-to-controls communications encompassing functional engineering designs; HMI interface and servos that provide faster, more efficient changeovers to feed various line packaging, case packing and pallet forming configurations. Adaptability to various shapes, weights and sizes allows flexibility to match our solutions to your products for increased throughput and future expansion.
If this research is not done up front and a system is purchased on lowest initial cost, a poorly performing conveyor and extremely expensive retrofit could have you scrambling with interrupted production and a major headache in the process. When comparing conveyor systems, make sure they’re apples-to-apples. Don’t settle for anything less.
Take the Multi-Conveyor challenge. Even if you’re satisfied with your existing conveyor supplier, let us quote your next project. Chances are, we’ve already built a system that’s similar to the project you’re working on right now - or made one pretty darn close.

WEIMA America
WEIMA offers a variety of industrial machinery to recycle packaging where it’s produced!
WEIMA shredders and compression machinery offer packaging manufacturers full control over how their scrap is recycled or reintegrated. With over 40 years in the ecycling industry, WEIMA is no stranger to the plastics, paper, corrugate, aluminum, and canning sectors. What do these industries have in common? All these packaging materials are necessary for transporting various products effectively, and all of them create waste streams with unique requirements for recycling.
Shredding with WEIMA:
Industrial shredders are easily integrated into production lines, making size reduction a manageable process for all packaging manufacturers. These shredders are ideal for the paper and corrugated industries, as well as for processing plastic film packaging and hard plastic scrap. With a variety of rotor widths and cutting geometries, WEIMA knows what it takes to effectively size reduce specific waste streams with ease.
Compressing with WEIMA:
Whether empty or filled – WEIMA has the right pressing solution for recycling packaging waste. With hydraulic drainage presses, all common packaging and containers can be drained and compacted. These include soft packaging, plastic bags, tinplate or aluminum cans, foil-wrapped cardboard, plastic cups, plastic bottles and mixed food waste.
Packaging that is no longer usable is occasionally still filled with fluids. These filled items require proper separation, if only for reasons of volume reduction and cost-effective disposal. Due to their complete stainless-steel construction, drainage presses are appreciated not only by breweries, dairies, soft drink producers and bottling plants, but also by operators of biogas plants, plastic processors and food manufacturers.
