The joint solution integrates AI-powered piece picking with dual paper-poly bagging machine, enabling fulfillment centers to achieve speed, accuracy, and sustainability while offsetting the higher cost of paper packaging.

Bensenville, IL, September 15, 2025 - CMES Robotics and PAC Machinery will debut a next-generation robotic bagging solution at PACK EXPO Las Vegas, September 29 to October 1, 2025, at PAC Machinery's booth W-2344.

The collaboration integrates PAC Machinery's Rollbag® R3200 Paper Bagging System with CMES Robotics' AI-powered piece picking and packing technology, creating a direct pick-to-pack solution. The system supports both paper and poly bagging, giving fulfillment centers the flexibility to meet sustainability goals without sacrificing speed or efficiency.

While paper packaging is typically more expensive than poly, the combined system offsets that cost through reduced manual labor, higher throughput, and improved accuracy. Live demonstrations will show how CMES Robotics' AI Vision identifies and grips items of any shape or size, placing them directly into PAC's high-performance baggers.

"By pairing our AI-powered piece picking with PAC's proven bagging systems, we are delivering a complete packaging solution that helps fulfillment centers embrace sustainable packaging and improve efficiency. The automation not only drives accuracy and speed, but it also offsets the higher cost of paper by automating the entire process," said Alex Choe, President of CMES Robotics.
