Packaging Equipment Automation For Manufacturers

Manual packaging operations come at a cost. Isthmus provides custom automated packaging systems that can transform your entire packaging line. Custom packaging solutions are well suited for products that require case erectors, stretch wrappers, robotic integrations, flexible palletizing, shrink wrapping and conveyance systems – all of which the Isthmus engineering team can deliver on. These cutting-edge technologies create the ability to increase production output and empower scalable business practices without adding more space or team members to your facility. Isthmus designs packaging automation systems that provide repeatable return on investment and the opportunity for escalated profit for years to come.


Packaging Equipment Automation Capabilities

Primary Packaging

Primary packaging automation equipment meets your filling and sealing requirements at a drastically greater speed, increased flexibility and more reliable traceability as compared to manual primary packaging. Automated equipment streamlines operations by ensuring products of different sizes, quantities, and configurations are packaged with the correct accessories, labels, and documentation.

Secondary Packaging

Secondary packaging automation equipment emphasizes greater flexibility, accuracy, and efficiency. Secondary automation is ideal for products of varying sizes, case quantities, and labeling requirements to ensure products are properly verified and packaged before shipment. Eliminate bottlenecks and scale production capabilities when running multiple SKUs with different configuration needs.

Flexible Packaging

Flexible packaging is difficult to handle. Isthmus specializes in creating custom flexible packaging equipment that delivers a consistent, uniform output at a high throughput.


Advantages of Automated Packaging Solutions

Lower Production Costs

Automated packaging systems greatly reduce your reliance on manual labor, as well as the errors that come along with human variability. These savings will compound year after year.

Increased Quality & Consistency

No more defects, no more inconsistency, no more waste. Packaging automation equipment reduces rework and strengthens your brand’s reputation in the marketplace.

Increased Manufacturing Capacity

Packaging automation runs faster and longer than your existing system. This exponentially expands your ability to scale up without incurring the workforce and workspace costs that used to come along with growth.
