Packsize

Packsize (Booth S3547) has unveiled a new machine designed to build on-demand, right-sized boxes exclusively for Walmart, with the goal of faster shipping, less waste and a better overall unboxing experience.

Sure, you’ll see hordes of robots at ProMat 2023, but what are they doing for operations in terms of high-value applications, and how do they integrate to help material flow? To find out, we asked a few exhibitors about the top warehouse robotic apps and trends.

With Pack Expo 2022 right around the corner, we take a look at the trends driving packaging today.

From what goes in packages to pallet loads on the warehouse floor and even artificial intelligence, dimensioning equipment has some new missions.

On Monday at a press conference, Packsize International (Booth B7004) exhibited its X Series—highly advanced, efficient and flexible automated packaging solutions—and discussed other topics.

By deploying automated packaging solutions, operations can significantly reduce the labor needed compared to manual pack out. It’s about ensuring high and reliable throughput and reducing the worries of scaling up labor to handle peak seasons, while minimizing dim weight charges with package right-sizing.

A highly flexible yet strong and stiff paper packaging material reduces packaging costs and shipment damage compared to conventional bubble pack. Bring in the sustainability of paper, and the rate of change just accelerated.

Packsize is showcasing the latest additions to its full suite of Right-sized Packaging On Demand systems.

Packaging’s moment in the spotlight

Multinational on-demand packaging technology leader Packsize will showcase packaging made smarter through a next-gen integration with leading fulfillment solution provider 6 River Systems at Booth 8832 at Modex.

Signode (Booth 5223) demonstrated multiple end-of-line packaging solutions, including its Octopus Rotary Ring Wrapper.

Through an end-to-end, data-driven system, the organization has reduced its courier charges by 28%.

Traditionally, shipping boxes and cartons was an oversized process built with manual labor. Those days are disappearing with a second generation of automated machines that builds boxes and pouches that are closer to right-sized and saves on materials and shipping costs.

The new workflow is outperforming the company’s previous process considerably.
