C-P’s Softlan fabric softener packaging operations benefit from a 90-per-minute case packer from HMPS. Watch this short video to see how cases are erected and bottom-sealed then collected by one of two ABB robots, which take turns “catching” packs as they fly off a belt. The robots take turns holding the cases at an angle to safely shingle the packages before sending the case onward for top-sealing.
