Automated food packaging machines span a broad range of equipment with unique and specialized uses. When choosing the best automated system for your needs, consider the equipment materials, sanitation requirements, type of packaging, and operational safety.
Depending on the application, most food production equipment must meet sanitation requirements. Stainless steel is often used for food handling equipment, because it’s easily modified, strong, and sanitary. A natural protective coating prevents rust and corrosion, which allows technicians to clean the material frequently without damaging it.
Automated equipment for food packaging must take into account the type of packaging. Reko is pleased to offer highly specialized packaging equipment for pouches, satchels, cartons, plastic and cardboard containers. Our design specialists work with you to find the ideal automation solution for your unique packaging design.
Automated food packaging equipment offers the added benefit of enhanced safety for line workers. With automation, fewer workers are required to be on the line for manufacturing and inspection purposes, thereby reducing the risk of worker injury and exposure to contaminants. Automated systems are designed with a variety of fail-safes and security features to further enhance production safety in packaging facilities.
Whether you need primary, secondary, or tertiary packaging for your food products, Reko can provide the automation to streamline operations. With a broad range of experience in a variety of industries and applications, our specialists can design fully integrated automation systems to enhance productivity, boost overall operational efficiency, and provide a safer working environment.
Our newly constructed state-of-the-art facility boasts 40,000 sq. ft. of space and includes full-service design and production services at the top of the automation industry. We are dedicated to engineering and manufacturing the highest-quality equipment, as is exhibited by our numerous certifications and awards:
