What is it for: Shelf Ready Packaging

Shelf-ready packaging (SRP), also known as retail-ready packaging (RRP) refers to refers to the packing of products so that they are delivered in a ready-to-display merchandising unit. Products which come in SRP can be placed on the shelf without the need for unpacking or repacking.

Shelf Ready Packaging machines allow for more efficient replenishment at store level, which improves overall product availability and thereby results in greater product sales. Not only does SRP help businesses improve their sales, but it also provides businesses with more opportunities to display their products in a strategic manner. This allows businesses to make their products more noticeable in their store. Overall, using SRP leaves a smaller environmental footprint since corrugated cardboard is easily recyclable.

Operation Process (How does it work?):

PAKSMART ® PC40SR- Automatic load shelf ready case/carton packer machine uses a hot melt glue closure system and has the ability to run at up to 25 outer cases per minute.

Following the up-stream product production, the process is to hand place the product into the PC40 AL infeed bucket conveyor belt. You can choose to upgrade this to one of our automatic product transfers now or at a later date.

The system works to erect the case or carton and load collations of product. It then closes and seals the case or carton prior to discharging it from the machine.

The operator’s function is kept to a minimum as the system will cycle on a timer, presenting empty buckets to the operator or in some cases, multiple operators (for higher speed requirements).

1. The operator will hand place the product into the bucket infeed.  (Optional upgrade is available to one of our automatic product transfers).
2. Once the product has been placed into the infeed bucket, the case packer machine will index on a time cycle presenting an empty bucket to the operator. The product will index one station at a time until they arrive at the load station where the waiting open case will receive the product via the action of the load ram.
3. The loaded case will then index one station towards the final closing stations of the case machine. A newly erected case will be presented to the load station ready for the arrival of the collation of product.
