Whether it’s primary, secondary or tertiary packaging, our extensive portfolio of modular components in the areas of profile, conveyor and handling technology lets you achieve virtually any packaging task. Our products can be integrated directly in the packaging machine or to connect packaging steps.
Conveyor Systems
mk conveyor systems have mastered the challenges of modern automation. We employ innovative solutions for feeding and removing product and for interlinking a wide variety of machining centres, including buffering, storage and labelling.
Profiles
Our profile construction kit with more than 200 aluminium profiles lets you construct machine frames and protective device guards with unrivalled functionality and high-quality design.
The versatility of the mk system lets you change products and formats quickly and reliably, even in complex tasks. Systems can be modified or expanded by simply replacing and reusing individual modules and stations. Robust profiles and sturdy screw connections ensure absolute precision in tasks with high cycle rates and machine vibrations. The profile construction kit ensures that all products are perfectly compatible with one another.
A manufacturer of office supplies optimises its material flows between production and shipping: Customised conveyor and turning technology enables the flexible handling of folder packs with two different packaging variants in one line – thus sustainably increasing efficiency while ensuring high…
A manufacturer of customised foam packaging solutions produces die-cut foam parts for suitcase and insulation inserts, for example. The customer now requires an ergonomic sorting line that enables reliable separation of usable parts and punching waste.
A manufacturer of office supplies needed a conveyor line for carton blanks with an integrated buffer function. The cardboard stacks come out of a cutting system in various formats and at a rate of 6 stacks per minute. The downstream stack magazine can process 4 stacks per minute, which means that a…
At a manufacturer of carton packaging, the carton blanks fed out from a production machine were stacked on pallets manually. The aim was to automate this process, with a robot taking over the palletising work in the future.
A manufacturer of metal packaging requires an interlink between a welding plant and an expander for coated paint bucket blanks, also known as bucket jackets. The jackets, which were welded in the horizontal position, come out of the welding plant horizontally and have to be transferred to a conveyor…
A medical products manufacturer requires a conveyor system as supply and discharge for a packaging machine for roll plasters.
In a food manufacturer's packaging line, individual boxes are packed in outer boxes and labelled. Once the boxes are sealed, they must be transferred to automatic palletising. In order to be transferred, the boxes have to be elevated to a height of approx. 3.5 m.
A manufacturer of polystyrene insulation boxes, which are used worldwide, wants to keep its boxes in circulation and reuse them multiple times. To assist with this, a partner company is building testing machines in which the used boxes are checked fully automatically.
For order processing, a mail order business requires a belt conveyor for picking items of clothing. The items from the individual orders, together with the shipping documents, must be fed to a manual workstation on the belt conveyor.
When coffee capsules are manufactured, they must be transported out of the filling system in such a way that they cannot tip. 16 capsules each in 2 rows are discharged by a multi-gripper on a linear axis with a cycle of 2.4 seconds. To clear the storage position, the capsules must be moved 860 mm in…
