In the highly dynamic world of dairy production, where precision, efficiency, and adaptability are essential, Clevertech’s pioneering strength has redefined the standards of end-of-line automation. With a wealth of innovations, Clevertech has paved the way for streamlined operations and optimal efficiency through its robotic palletizing systems and dedicated secondary packaging solutions.
Case Packers for the Challenges of a Complex Sector
The packaging of dairy products presents a unique set of challenges, from managing a diverse range of items and formats to ensuring uninterrupted operations in the face of fluctuating market demands. Additionally, the scarcity of qualified operators poses a significant risk to production continuity, where even small errors can lead to substantial losses due to the perishable nature of the raw materials.
Modern dairy production also faces the challenge of handling a wide range of sizes and formats, from small European cartons to large packaging for multiple gallons, popular in the United States and the United Kingdom.
It is in this context that Clevertech’s case packers are designed to integrate this diversity through innovative solutions that handle small one-liter containers, as well as oversized ones for multiple gallons.
Clevertech’s Designed Systems
Clevertech’s case packer machines and other solutions developed for the dairy sector offer unparalleled versatility, ensuring customization, usability, and maximum efficiency through a range of features:
