Totally integrated flexible packing line solutions for pre-formed trays

An Ishida Flex-Line is a set of configurable modules, each with the same pack size capacity that fit together to make a complete, high-efficiency tray packing line.

Flex-Line modules cover the four main areas of the modern packing line: filling, sealing, quality control and case-packing.

Entire lines are available in Single Lane, Twin Lane or Split Dual Lane configurations. Twin Lane lines deliver roughly twice the throughput of Single Lane lines, while Split Dual Lane lines offer the choice of Twin Lane throughput or of running two independent packing lines within the same footprint as a Twin Lane line.

Fast, flexible, efficient and responsive

An Ishida Flex-Line delivers a level of performance second to none: Very high packing speeds. Up to 15 cycles per minute with MAP across the range of Single, Twin and Split Dual Lane configurations.
