Order X7™ today; add the custom solution for single- and
complex multi-item orders in 2019
SALT LAKE CITY–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#Now–The continued decline in unemployment is impacting companies across
nearly every industry; a reported 3.7 percent national average in
September by the U.S. Department of Labor. Heightened demand for goods
ordered over the internet amplifies the worker shortage for these
companies shipping products. To ensure optimal and timely outcomes and
smart industry improvements for its customers, Packsize today announces
its fully automated, right-sized packaging system, the X7™.
The new automated custom box-making system represents a significant
investment by Packsize in machine learning, packaging process
automation, corrugated infrastructure and testing, and business
intelligence. The automated system is the second in the company’s X
Series line of automated, On Demand Packaging® technology
solutions.
Advancing packaging automation for complex, single- and multiple-item
orders, the X7™ achieves sustainability and supply chain
workflow optimization. Delivering the most needed functions to make,
pack, and ship a right-sized box in three seconds, the X7™ is
designed to produce 1,200 to 2,400 ready-to-ship boxes an hour for
products of varying types and sizes. The X7™ also delivers on
Packsize’s stringent standards for z-Fold® corrugated quality
and throughput.
“The X7™ is unrivaled when it comes to corrugated material
yields and packaging speeds of up to 2,400 boxes an hour per packaging
cell, based on its configuration and layout,” said Packsize General
Manager Brandon Brooks, who oversees the international company’s
operations in North America. “This advanced system positions well below
the variable costs associated with many bagging solutions, and without
losing the shipping protection of a right-sized corrugated box. We are
proud to deliver the X7™ to address current labor shortages
and customer expectations for better packaging experiences.”
The X7™ incorporates industry-leading manufacturing and
development practices, such as a top-down glue application, a reduction
of corrugated cutting positions, reduced dust and trim, and a wide
conveyance system, as well as several design approaches that ensure
speed and reliability.
Benefitting packaging optimization and production requirements for
customers, the Packsize software platform, PackNet®, provides
distribution and manufacturing businesses with a flexible, scalable
architecture and an intuitive interface. PackNet® helps
operators manage their corrugated yield, complex workflows, warehouse
management and ordering systems, business intelligence, and the
