Paper protective packaging machine AUTO.PROTECT

Overview
AUTO.PROTECT is an automated carton cushioning module that detects voids and places padding to protect items during transport. The system combines a vision sensor and an AI-supported application to select the correct packing scenario (top fill, bottom fill, block & brace). Available as a standard module or a customized solution.

How it works
A vision system scans the carton contents and identifies voids. An AI-supported application analyses the situation and selects the appropriate packing scenario. The machine dispenses and positions paper padding automatically until the goods are secured.
