Mespack is committed to providing comprehensive solutions to meet end-of-line production needs. Whether it’s cans, bottles, capsules, solid products, or flexible packaging, the company’s end-of-line solutions can seamlessly operate with various secondary packaging formats.
Secondary packaging plays a vital role in multiple aspects of a product, with product protection and primary packaging during transportation being of paramount importance. Additionally, secondary packaging contributes to display, distribution, and branding. Mespack focuses on delivering sustainable secondary packaging solutions, particularly cardboard based solutions.
When it comes to American box solutions, the MCP series is considered a groundbreaking secondary packaging picking equipment that can provide turnkey projects for the RSC market. Not only is this state-of-the-art machine highly technological, but it also includes devices such as delta robots and servos. Because of its versatility as well as in order to increase production speed, up to 4 picking modules are available. The MCP series offers several features:
Aceleration Belt (optional): This belt accelerates to change the distance between two pouches from the previous station in order to be adapted to the picking speed.
Vision System: This 3D vision system is integrated into the machine entry and detects the pouch position in order to transfer it to the picking robot.
Picking System: The delta robot is used to pick pouches and horizontally place them inside of American box.
Automatic Changeover Belt: This belt is able to perform an American box format changeover through HMI in less than 30 seconds, as a result of its full servo characteristic.
Flap Control Guides: These guides are keeping flaps permanently open.
