Attendees learned how smart packaging machines can create more flexible operations to support shorter production runs and a wider range of products. For example, theiTRAK system with independent cart technologyfrom Rockwell Automation uses simple software profiles in place of traditional mechanics. This allows for fast, no-tool changeovers that can occur with just the press of a button. The ability to easily reconfigure the system based on the package being run can also optimize a machine’s performance.
