Container handling
Precise provision and processing for rapid order processing
Automated handling of containers leads to a perfect flow of material and thus increases productivity significantly. Therefore, the automatic container handling systems from SSI SCHAEFER execute individual steps at the speed of the stock flow. In this process, the maximum peak rates for throughput are taken into account. Separating, emptying, sealing and feeding to the dispatch area is done with extreme precision.

Function and application
The lidding and address insertion combines address application and lidding of totes.
This system first prints an address label that is then clamped by a lid in such a way that the address can be read from the outside, while the rest of the document is on the inside of the tote.
The sealed totes ensure that the products are protected and allow the totes to be stacked, so as to save space during transport.
Advantages
- Economic compared to manual execution
- Simple conveying system design
- Low running costs due to use of standard DIN A4 paper
- Large address field; high print quality
- Simplified for employees and quality increase
- Throughput aligned with that of the overall system
Function and application
The automatic document insertion inserts documents in format DIN A4 into empty totes.
The totes are identified in front of the machine. Then the matching documents are printed and sorted into a buffer (8 bays). The documents are inserted when the tote reaches the station.
Design, position and number of positions can be customized.
Our systems can be integrated into all standard conveyor systems in a highly flexible way thanks to their modular, expandable design.
