Standard-Knapp’s 939S Versatron™ Soft Catch Servo Case Packer has a lowering head module for gentler handling of thinner, lightweight, and more fragile glass containers being used in the move towards greener, more sustainable packaging.
The 939S Versatron minimizes the amount of material needed for container partitions, and major national retail chains have achieved savings as high as 10 percent in the cost of a case, according to the manufacturer.
The lowering head module can pick up bottles and other containers and carry them to the packing area, where they can be packed in the case without dropping. The machine places the container all the way to the bottom of the case, at 30 cycles per minute.
