End-of-line packaging encompasses all the machinery at the end of the production process, used to complete the packaging of products before their final shipment and transportation.
The optimization of this phase, following the so-called "primary packaging," plays a crucial role in refining production processes. Indeed, in an increasingly competitive business environment, the automation of packaging processes is a key factor in ensuring efficiency and productivity.
Companies are investing more in automation due to labor shortages, to protect employee health, and to meet the high productivity standards imposed by the market.
According to the End-Of-Line Packaging Market Report, the size of the end-of-line packaging market will see significant growth in the near future, with a CAGR of 4.4%.
Automating end-of-line packaging processes offers the following benefits:
Improves efficiency: Automation increases production speed, reduces human errors, and enhances overall production efficiency. It provides a replicable and automated system across multiple production processes.
At MF TECNO, we boast a decade-long experience in end-of-line packaging.
We specialize in the development of complete packaging systems. Turnkey solutions for secondary and tertiary packaging. Within our extensive machinery portfolio, we offer numerous options for the phase following bagging. Case packer machines, pick & place systems, bundlers, palletizers, and pallet wrappers.
In this article, we will particularly analyze our case packers, bundlers, cartesian palletizers, and pallet wrappers.
Our MF CUBE is an ideal solution for American box packaging of bags, bricks, or cartons. It's a flexible option easily integrable with previous systems.
A single model, featuring a modular and compact structure, entirely made of 304 stainless steel and composed of:
A single machine that encompasses the stages of forming, loading, and belt sealing through hot glue.
Various gripping systems available in accordance with customer needs and project specifications.
It represents a reliable and high-performance solution for continuous motion packaging with shrink film of:
Extremely versatile option for both products arriving on the infeed belt in the horizontal position and in the vertical position.
Normally designed to fit into pre-existing production lines. Fully automated and equipped with sturdy stainless steel carpentry, it is ideal for medium and high productions.
The control panel allows to take advantage of a wide range of adjustments, according to the products to be packed and the thickness of the film to be used.
We specialize in the manufacture of a wide range of palletizers and anthropomorphic robots. Automatic and semiautomatic solutions distinguished by high technology and flexibility of use.
Below is a brief review of some of our top-of-the-line machines.
The MF PCA SMART palletizer processes loads up to 50 kg with throughputs of up to 500 cycles/hour.
It is an ideal and particularly popular option when it is necessary to work in confined spaces and prohibitive environments. Its compactness and small size make it extremely versatile and reliable.
In fact, the structure is just under 3 meters while the finished pallet has a maximum height of 1800 mm (including pallet). The small footprint therefore makes it easy to place in any end-of-line.
In our long experience, numerous projects have featured our smart palletizers. Both as individual installations and as projects that included a packaging system upstream.
This robot palletizer enables the processing of numerous types of products: bags, boxes, cases and bundles.
The palletizing robot is prepared for the use of various gripping systems. Customizable and with the possibility of inserting numerous options according to customer requirements.
The main types of gripping systems are:
Several versions are available, in accordance with the designs submitted by the client. The main ones are:
Basic version: material is deposited either in pallets on the ground or on semi-automatic winders integrated within the palletizing scheme.
Automated version: This is a particularly popular option characterized by limited operator intervention.
In fact, starting from the automatic, specially prepared pallet magazine, roller conveyors and catenaries ensure continuous feeding and evacuation of the pallet.
The palletizer is extremely easy to operate. The operator can independently modify the palletizing scheme through the integrated PLC system equipped with a touch screen panel. This allows it to be adapted to various production requirements.
Safety devices
There are various control and security systems such as:
The MF PCA SMART PRO palletizer is the evolution of the previously mentioned PCA SMART model. A solution that, alongside the features and advantages inherent in the basic version, presents greater productivity.
It thus combines the compactness, versatility and ability to work in prohibitive environments, proper to the standard version, with high productivity.
In fact, it reaches productions up to 800 cycles/hour for loads up to 50 kg.
Compared with the basic version, it is characterized by:
Our extensive machinery fleet also consists of automatic and semi-automatic pallet wrappers. Present most often as a complement to pre-existing palletizing systems.
The MF Wrap 35 automatic rotary table wrapper enables fast and reliable stretch film wrapping.
It is designed for applications up to 2000 kg and hourly productions of 30 to 35 pallets/h.

MF SPW 20 Semi-automatic wrapper
This represents an extremely flexible and reliable option for loads up to 1,500 kg.
The operator intervenes at the initial stage of attaching the stretch film to a corner of the pallet. Before the machinery starts the wrapping operation.
