Have you ever restored a turn of the century automobile? It requires the ability to visualize the missing parts and then make them function, from scratch. Engineering is critical, creativity is how we do it economically.

 

Our ability to think in details and make anything were the two perfect traits needed to tackle the challenges of creating automated machinery equipment. We study your process and your goals, then we design and produce the right equipment to help you be more efficient.

 

We are experienced in custom automation, packaging, part feeding, electrical design and build, mechanical design, conventional machining, PLC programming, CNC machining, welding & fabrication & automatic testing all under one roof.

 

 

Assembly Machines

Packard is capable of building any type of assembly machinery for your manufacturing needs. Whether you need a machine to test product durability, print your logo, buff, grind or whatever; Packard has the ingenuity to get the job done. We design and build innovative, high-speed automated assembly machinery that deliver repeatability, fast cycle times and unmatched reliability for demanding manufacturing applications across a wide range of industries.

 

Custom Packaging Machines

We not only offer single machine solutions, but also offer complete, turn-key assembly and packaging lines. Packard has been supplying such diverse industries as food service, pharmaceutical, consumer goods, sporting goods, and the garment industries with quality intermittent and continuous motion cartoners. 

 

Automated Machinery

Packard applies industry-leading technical knowledge and resources to deliver a total  automation solution, whether you require single- or multi-station lean automation, or a turnkey manufacturing system integrating third-party equipment, production-ready. We are capable of  building any type of machinery for your manufacturing needs.

 

 

Not Just a Machine, You

get a  process...

 

We need to study how you are currently doing your process and we will improve it with machinery and automation. You need a fast return on your investment and our smart manufacturing will allow you to do that. We apply diverse technical knowledge whether your application requires a system custom designed from the ground up, a system incorporating rapidly deployed standard work cells, or redeployment of your existing equipment.

We will bring you:
 
•  Custom Interfaces
Making complicated function simple is the first process performed by the machine. The ability to consistently and clearly transfer the product is critical to smooth process. 
 
• Modular Design
Permits easy customization to suit your production line needs. Add a powered carton magazine, choose your tuck preference, go with a glue unit or add an interface to a case erector. The electronics give you the flexibility to interface with your current machinery.
 
• Mechanical Drives
A hardened ground box cam system gives positive precise control and motion. It also assure less downtime, lower maintenance, and faster production rates.
 
• Frames/ Bases
Any good piece of equipment needs a good foundation. We fabricate welded structural tubing into a strong, long-lasting frame that can withstand heavy use. These machines are more compact than most, utilizing very little floor space.
 
• Fast Change Over
Simplicity in change over to a different carton size is an important feature inherent in the basic design of the machine.
 
• Easy Maintenance
All machine lubrication points are located at one central location. Its color coded schedule indicates proper lubrication intervals.
