This case details a custom-engineered solution by Autron Tech for a leading bathware manufacturer. The system addresses the unique challenge of packaging large, structurally sensitive products. It goes beyond simple cartoning to include intelligent stacking and stabilization, ensuring products arrive in perfect condition throughout the supply chain.
System Workflow:
1. Customized Cartoning: A specially designed large-format cartoner automatically erects and loads the product into a customer-specific lock-bottom tuck-top box.
2. Conveyance & Orientation: The sealed boxes are discharged via a roller conveyor. A unique flipping mechanism then carefully inverts the first box, positioning the structurally rigid side at the bottom to form a stable base for the stack.
3. Intelligent Stacking & Strapping: Boxes are automatically stacked into units of five. The bundle then enters a multi-directional strapping system, which first secures it with straps in one orientation.
4. Multi-Axis Stabilization: The entire bundle is then rotated 90 degrees horizontally, allowing the strapper to apply bands in the perpendicular direction. This creates a crisscross pattern that locks the stack together, preventing shifting and crushing during transit.

Value Delivered:
This Autron system eliminates manual labor and guarantees 100% stacking consistency. The innovative flip-and-strap process dramatically reduces shipping damage rates, protects brand reputation, and lowers overall packaging costs by eliminating the need for additional protective materials.
