Yes. Thanks to multi-format packaging, flexible gripping systems, and programmable palletizing patterns, bakery products can be switched between SKUs with minimal downtime, maintaining efficiency, traceability, and product integrity thanks to automatic changeover technology.

In bakery environments with a high product variety (sliced ​​bread, rolls, pastries, vacuum-packed products, boxes, trays), end-of-line solutions can include:

- Multi-format packaging machines with automatic changeover.

- Robotic loading systems with adaptable grippers.

- Vision systems for product orientation and verification.

- Palletizing robots with dynamic layer pattern software.

- Recipe-based changeovers managed via HMI.

- Integration with MES/ERP for production synchronization.

An end-of-line system can handle different box sizes and types using multi-format technology, automatic adjustments, and recipe-based format changes. Thanks to adjustable guides, flexible gripping systems, and programmable packaging and palletizing patterns, the line adapts quickly to new formats with minimal downtime, maintaining efficiency and stability.

To manage format variability (packmasters, trays, display-ready packaging, etc.), end-of-line solutions include:

- Automatic length, width, and height adjustments using servomotors.

- Recipe management via HMI for quick format selection.

- Robotic packers with adaptable tooling.

- Automatic case erectors and sealers with multi-format capability.

- Vision systems for box identification and positioning.

- Palletizing software with an automatic editing system for new patterns.

- Integration with legacy equipment and MES/ERP for synchronized format changes.

Yes. An automated end-of-line system can pack two different SKUs in the same box using a controlled product sequence and intelligent box loading. With the right configuration, the system ensures accurate product counting, positioning, and traceability, maintaining production speed without manual intervention.

Packing boxes with mixed SKUs is typically achieved through:

- Product tracking systems.

- Controlled infeed lanes that combine different SKUs in a defined sequence.

- Robotic packers with programmable loading patterns.

- Recipe-based configuration via HMI for predefined pattern combinations.

- Check scales or visual inspection to verify the correct assortment.

- Integration with MES/ERP for on-demand mixed-box production.

This approach allows for the creation of promotional packs, varied assortments, and configurations specific to each retailer, while maintaining line accuracy and efficiency.

The best solution for frequent format changes is a fully automated, servo-driven end-of-line system with recipe-based format changeover and robotic handling. This type of system minimizes manual adjustments, reduces downtime, and ensures consistent performance across multiple SKUs, case sizes, and pallet configurations.

End-of-line automation in the production of cookies with flexible packaging involves integrating packaging, sealing, and palletizing into a synchronized, multi-format system.
Through robotic handling and recipe-based format changes, the line adapts to different package sizes and box formats, maintaining product integrity, speed, and traceability.

In the production of cookies with flow-wrap flexible packaging, an automated end-of-line solution typically includes:

- Intermediate storage and product orientation systems after flow-wrap.

- Multi-format box forming machine.

- Robotic or delta pick-and-place units for the gentle handling of flexible packaging.

- Multi-format box closing machine.

- Quality control using checkweighers.

- Robotic palletizers with automatic generation of dynamic patterns.

- Centralized control with recipe management via HMI. - Integration with MES/ERP for production tracking and order-based configuration.

This architecture reduces manual handling, prevents packaging deformation, increases line efficiency, and allows for quick format changes between different cookie types and promotional assortments.

There are end-of-line systems designed as a flexible, multi-format solution that allows for the incorporation of new formats without additional investment or structural modifications, thanks to servo-driven technology.

- Multi-format technology allows for the addition of new box sizes and formats at no extra cost, simply by adding them via the touchscreen.

- Robotic packaging machines with flexible end-of-arm tools can handle new dimensions within an existing range.

- Automatic adjustments via servomotors eliminate the need for mechanical change parts.
