Generation One shows a mechanical line shaft with cams, sprockets, and chains. Generation Two shows a hybrid machine with some mechanical drivetrain parts in addition to a few servos. Generation Three shows a machine built from the ground up around servo technology, promising 50% fewer mechanical parts, more flexibility, and the most automated changeover. The brochure also shows the company’s technologies applied in filling, cartoning, bagging, flow-wrapping, case-packing, and palletizing applications.
