Video: World's smallest packing station?

From Pack Expo 2008: What’s billed as the world’s smallest packaging station made its debut at the show.

Developed by SmartPack Design, the patented PackPod is a waist-high station on which an operator easily erects a case from a flat blank. The PackPod system then tapes the bottom so that the operator can manually load containers into the case. The PackPod system then tapes the top closed. Tape application is performed by the machine. The operator merely guides the case into the taping station.
