zambelli seal show
As Packaging World editors walked the aisles at the recent Pack Expo show, we could not miss the new packaging machines that featured super-quick changeover times, which we’ll arbitrarily define as 15 minutes or less. [...] Here are some cartoners, case packers, a shrink bundler and a thermoformer that caught our attention. [1]

[...] The robot orients randomly positioned bags as they travel down a conveyor in preparation for case-packing by the BluePrint machine. [1]
