PadPak Multi-Station

The scalable and modular custom packaging solution

Space comes at a premium within many busy packaging environments. The challenges created by a lack of space include higher labor and fixed costs, wasted time spent walking around a packing area, and the risk of repeated stress injuries from cramped working conditions. A poor layout leads not only to frustrated operators and more absenteeism but also reduced profits as a side effect.

Helping upgrade the productivity of your teams

PadPak® Multi-Station is a flexible, scalable, and modular solution that is designed to overcome the challenges found in most packing and dispatch departments.

A single central converter supplies pads to every packing station. The system lets you build a custom line that meets your own packing layout and needs – automating pad distribution for four to ten stations. The result is improved productivity along with an environment that protects operators’ wellbeing. Crucially, you can optimize packing efficiency during seasonal peaks and quieter periods, or even adapt the line to specific customer requests.

With no more manual pad distribution and fewer ‘touchpoints’, you’ll see a transformed packing operation and a level of flexibility that your business has never experienced before. PadPak Multi-Station delivers cushioning pads with exceptional efficiency for the packer, eliminating multiple converters and providing immediate business benefits, helping to future-proof your operation.

Benefits

Scalability

Start with the number of packing stations you need right now – the PadPak Multi-Station is modular so you can add new stations to match future growth, configured to best fit your space.

Flexible bin positioning

Where you place your pad bins makes a big difference to ergonomics for operators. PadPak Multi-Station protects your teams, bringing cushioning pads directly to the individual station and boosting efficiency.

Flexible installation

Whether you have a long packing area or an ‘L’ shape, a gradient or a corner, PadPak Multi-Station adapts easily for optimum use of space.

Fewer converters

One converter provides pads directly to up to ten packing spaces, meaning you can eliminate multiple converters. The pads are replenished automatically, without operator involvement.

Increased productivity

Cushioning pads go straight to the pack stations, which increases the boxes packed per hour per station.

Peak season options

You can change your configuration to suit increased or decreased staffing during peak season or quieter periods.

24/7 support

If your line experiences any issues, Ranpak is on hand 24 hours a day to help you resolve them.

How it works

Integration

PadPak Multi-Station integrates easily into your space, with minimal disruption and modules that allow for change and growth.

Pad delivery

Cushioning pads are delivered by a single central converter to containers above the packing stations. The pads are moved along the line by ‘grippers’, before dropping automatically into their designated container.

Container pad levels

Each container has a pad level indicator to monitor pad replenishment.

Ergonomic improvement

Operators can access the ready-to-use pads at a pack station without unnecessary bending, reaching, or twisting.

Applications

PadPak Multi-Station can boost productivity for any business, increasing the efficiency of the packing line and ensuring the flexibility needed to respond to challenges around demand, staffing, and business expansion.
