For over five decades, RPMI Packaging has built a reputation as a trusted, direct source of top-tier packaging equipment from industry pioneers. Our long-standing partnerships with these manufacturers enable us to consistently deliver exceptional products to our clients, ensuring seamless transactions and outstanding results.
The high-stakes world of modern manufacturing necessitates an efficient packaging line. It can either turbocharge your productivity and cost-effectiveness or slow you down. That's where secondary packaging enters the picture—it's the key to optimizing the final stages of packing, getting your products ready for transport and retail.
What is Secondary Packaging?
Secondary packaging equipment encompasses a variety of machines tailored for grouping individual items into larger units for distribution and sale. These include but are not limited to cartoning, case erecting, tray forming, case packing, and robotic palletizing.
Such machines are indispensable for manufacturers looking to streamline their packaging lines, reduce labor costs, and minimize packaging errors. At RPMI Packaging, we offer the following equipment:
Case Packer / Erecting and Sealing
A carton erector machine automates the process of forming cartons from flat blanks, significantly accelerating the packaging process. These units stand out for their rapid setup and the ability to consistently produce cartons at high speeds, ensuring that packaging lines keep pace with manufacturing outputs. Like other secondary packaging machinery, carton erector machines can be customized to fit specific packaging needs.
The Model 121 Tablock Case Slitters/Sealers is a game-changing 2-in-1 machine that automatically slits the tabs of tablock cases and then folds the flaps and seals the case in one continuous operation, providing a smooth and gentle case sealing process.
Tray Forming / Industrial Shrink Wrap Machine
For securing packages for retail or transit, using an industrial shrink wrap machine offers an effective solution. This machine wraps products in a tight layer of plastic, providing protection and stability.
An example of this would be the VS Series Shrink Wrappers which offers the following advantages:
- Compact and economical shrink-wrap solution designed to interface with existing tray packers
- Compatible with Douglas Invex and Axiom tray packers at speeds up to 40 trays per minute
- Uses single film roll technology to eliminate costly maintenance problems associated with conventional cutting and sealing technologies
- Optional print-registered film control allows for enhanced package appearance and branding
Single film roll technology not only slashes operational costs, but also ensures a seamless production process. Aside from being free from the disruptions and downtime that often plague older models, our equipment also offers an optional print-registered film control system, which allows businesses to transform their packaging into a powerful marketing tool.
Carton Packing Machines
Carton packing machines automate the packing of products into cartons, which not only accelerates packaging processes but also boosts productivity. They are specifically designed to pack flow wraps, roll wraps, and tablets, an ideal solution for the bakery and confectionery industry. Its versatility makes it perfect for products like cereal bars, chocolate bars, biscuits, muffins, and cupcakes. Take a look at our Vantra™ IM Cartoning Machinery–the perfect combination of innovation, versatility and simplicity.
Partition Inserter Machine
The precision with which partition inserter machines operate streamlines the insertion of partitions into packages. This is critical for products requiring additional separation and protection, enhancing packaging speed without compromising accuracy.
Take your case packing to the next level with the Model 70 Partition Openers/Inserters. With servo-powered opening and inserting, this machine ensures smooth opening, precise placement, and efficient case packing—every time.
