BRILLOPAK has announced it has completed a year-long re-engineering programme to streamline the size and price of the firm’s most popular case/crate packing systems; the UniPAKer, PunnetPAKer and TrayPAKer.
At PPMA Show, Brillopak has been revealing next generation systems – the UniPAKer II, PunnetPAKer II and TrayPAKer II – which are described as 25% cheaper and smaller than their predecessors and have a build time of less than eight weeks, but still maintain the same build quality, speed, consistency and repeatable pack presentation in crates and cases.
Technical director Peter Newman said, “Last year’s PPMA 2022 show highlighted the importance to us to get back to basics. We are finding that customers don’t want more for their money; they simply want to spend less on easy to integrate machinery.
“We spent 12 months re-engineering the most popular food and FMCG case/crate packers in our portfolio by combining old and new technologies to reduce their price and footprint. I’m delighted to announce that the price of our PunnetPAKer II is reduced by 25% starting at £100k for a system which we can build in less than eight weeks.”
Brillopak’s re-engineering programme has been carried out by its in-house R&D department focusing on using established and new technologies, removing surplus cables and panels to reduce costs, ‘simplified’ frame structure, streamlining components/controls and making parts common across their portfolio.
Peter added, “We’d like to thank our trusted partners and those who continue to collaborate with our re-engineering programme and adventure to make the best pick, place and packing systems affordable to all: Omron, Norgren, Wenglor, SLPlastics, Underwoods, Vmeca.”
