Integrated case-packing and case-palletizing system

Streamline your production line with an all-in-one system that seamlessly integrates case packing and palletizing, optimizing space and enhancing efficiency with a compact design and rapid change-overs.

Packs and Palletizes Solid Products Efficiently

The SPZ from Tecnicam is an engineered-to-order integrated case-packing and palletizing monobloc designed specifically for the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food sectors. This compact machine combines the proven reliability of case packers and palletizers into a seamless operational unit. Its cantilevered case packing module ensures clean separation between mechanical and operational functions, enhancing accessibility and maintenance efficiency. The SPZ leverages a CAM patented Mechanical Memory® system for rapid, precise size change-overs, adapting effortlessly to varying product dimensions and pallet configurations.

The machine excels in handling blister packs, cream tubes, bottled vitamins, boxed perfumes, packaged snack bars, and other solid goods. It performs multiple functions such as case forming, stacking, filling, and closing, with options for self-adhesive tape, moistening paper, or hot-melt glue closures. Additionally, it integrates seamlessly with existing lines, offering optional equipment for case coding, label application, checkweighing, and barcode reading. A built-in buffer allows for uninterrupted operation during palletizer stoppages.

Enhanced with CNC-controlled linear interpolation for smooth motion dynamics, the SPZ ensures prolonged machinery lifespan and operational stability. Supporting automated pallet handling, the system can include slip-proofing and reject mechanisms for defective products, optimizing productivity and efficiency in high-speed, continuous operations. Adaptable and robust, the SPZ is constructed with materials resistant to wear and corrosion, compliant with industry standards, and supports easy cleaning and maintenance through its accessible design and optional CIP systems.
