What makes your booth a must visit for PACK EXPO attendees?

Las Vegas is a place tailor-made for big reveals, which is why it’s the perfect location to launch our new XCP Series continuous motion case packer. The XCP is designed for that mid-level customer looking to package between 35-70 cases per minute. It is engineered to enable fast, consistent changeovers, including easy access to all critical areas of operation. Brenton’s engineering team focused its XCP design on ease of operation, troubleshooting, and access – three attributes that are key to long-term success.

Additionally, attendees can experience the full capabilities of its MP1000 Robotic Bulk Palletizing / Depalletizing End of Arm Tool through an interactive augmented reality model of the machine. The MP1000, designed to pick up full layers of product at one time, is a great time-saving solution for a variety of plastics- and glass-handling applications. It provides consistent tight layer grids of palletized and depalletized product through cradle and place technology that combines a servo-operated rotary tool and slat system to gently handle full layers of product weighing up to 500 pounds with each motion. 

 

PACK Expo has many educational sessions, forums & Demo’s, is your company involved in any of them this year?

While Brenton may not be engaged in educational sessions offered by PACK EXPO, our involvement extends to ProMach’s Innovation Station and Vertical Market display. The Innovation Station effectively showcases ProMach’s strides in packaging innovation over the past two years, leveraging videos, images, and tangible product samples. Additionally, the Vertical Market Display highlights prominent ProMach brands tailored to diverse industries, including ready to drink beverage, distilled spirits, petfood, and sauces and dressings. This exhibit presents a comprehensive, fully integrated distilled spirits line, seamlessly incorporating ProMach’s brands throughout the entire production process.

 

The logistics is undertaking rapid advancements, be it automation, robotics, machine vision or data.  Logistics is a huge part for many manufacturers business, give us an idea on how your company and product is being utilized now in advancing logistics, packaging and the supply chain.
