Packaging line for the manufacturing industry

for tubesautomatic

Overview
After automated cutting, tubes are packed according to customer requirements. Solutions range from small runs (single crates) to high-volume boxing (up to tens of thousands per container). Bundling and stacking methods are tailored to product dimensions, material and downstream logistics.

Continuous tube packing process
Packing runs as a fully continuous automated process: a robot performs handling and placement so production continues while containers are filled. The system is designed for continuous throughput without manual intervention and requires no end-user robot programming knowledge.

Automated and scalable packing
Configurations are available from semi-automated cells to fully automated lines and can be upgraded as throughput or requirements change. The selected periphery and gripper tooling adapt to tube diameter, weight and material (grippers for magnetic and non‑magnetic steel available). Stacking positions and workflows are configurable to match packing formats.

Key process characteristics

• Fully continuous automated packing by robot
• Scalable solutions: semi-automated to fully automated
• Configurable bundling and stacking (up to multiple stacking positions)
• Supports crates, boxes, pallets and cases
• No robot programming required for routine operation
• Gripper options for magnetic and non-magnetic materials

Applications
Packing solutions are intended for tube and pipe production lines requiring automated post-cut handling and efficient packing for shipping or storage. Systems adapt to different throughput levels and packaging specifications for industrial supply chains.
