Knüppel will be showing visitors innovative packaging solutions for industry and retail at two regional trade fairs. At empack in Dortmund and Hamburg, the focus will be on process optimisation, sustainability and reducing material consumption.
„In addition to optimising the protection of the packaged goods, we always focus on creating further added value for our customers. Be it through process optimisation or a reduction in material consumption, for example.“
Marco Growe, Sales Manager of Knüppel Verpackung GmbH & Co. KG
Packaging processes can be optimised with the PadPak Guardian paper padding system, for example. The flexible and space-saving converter produces Paper pads for every requirement. Thanks to the easy-to-operate paper loading system, the Guardian can be loaded in less than 30 seconds. Intuitive operation via a touch panel makes the system particularly efficient and user-friendly. The AvvolTec Buzz n‘ Pack horizontal winder is also fast: at the touch of a button („buzzer“), the semi-automatic system quickly and securely fixes packaged goods with film on a corrugated cardboard tray and Simplifies the packaging process clearly. Knüppel Verpackung will also be presenting a new development at the Empack trade fairs: Packaging designed by the in-house packaging development department for shipping buckets. The bucket is stably braced in the carton, which efficiently prevents damage during transport and eliminates the need for additional padding.
Material savings and process optimisation are also important in the area of pallet securing. Knüppel is presenting a semi-automatic stretch robot that can be used on the move. Thanks to automatic scanning of the edges Decentralised creasing of pallets of almost any type, shape and size. The new high-performance machine stretch film KV BlueCast, which Knüppel launched on the market this spring, also ensures material savings. The film is characterised by its high puncture resistance and high stretchability, meaning that fewer wraps are required to secure pallets. The combination with an anti-slip paper can minimise the Often reduce film consumption even further. The anti-slip paper presented at the Knüppel stand holds the packaged goods securely in position even at an angle of 50°. As an alternative to corrugated cardboard layer pads, the anti-slip paper also saves storage space thanks to its smaller volume.
Another new product that Knüppel is launching this spring is the FleeceTech surface protection. This combines three properties in one product: the PP film on the outside protects against environmental influences, the soft fleece insert on the inside protects sensitive surfaces from scratches and the corrosion protection integrated into the fleece ensures that bare metal parts do not rust even during long-term storage. The cover is very Easy to handle and therefore time-saving. Shrink-wrapping ensures the bonnet fits like a glove. Zips ensure simple quality, customs and incoming goods inspections in the packaged state. Depending on the respective application, the robust bonnets can also be reused. The bonnets are used, for example, for packaging housings or components from the wind power, construction and agricultural machinery or mechanical and plant engineering sectors.
