Two Automation Solutions for Different Stages of Your Packaging Line
A packaging line is only as efficient as its weakest stage.
Some factories struggle with slow or unstable primary packaging.
Others have already automated product packaging but still depend heavily on workers for carton handling and palletizing.
At ALLPACK Indonesia 2026, Soontrue will demonstrate two machines designed for these different challenges:
SZ180 Horizontal Flow Wrapping Machine
for automatic primary packaging.
WP30 Robotic Palletizing System
for automated end-of-line pallet handling.

SZ180 Horizontal Flow Wrapping Machine for Automatic Primary Packaging
The SZ180 Flow Wrapping Machine is designed for products requiring automatic horizontal pillow-style packaging.
In a flow wrapping process, products move horizontally through the feeding section while packaging film is formed around them before longitudinal and cross sealing.
This packaging technology is widely used because it can provide continuous and consistent packaging for suitable products.
Typical applications may include:
- biscuits;
- cookies;
- bread;
- bakery products;
- cakes;
- confectionery;
- snacks;
- suitable household and non-food products.
Customers searching for an automatic flow wrapping machine, horizontal packaging machine, pillow packing machine, or food flow wrapper should consider both machine capability and real product conditions.
What Determines Real Flow Wrapping Performance?
Rated machine speed is only one part of packaging performance.
Actual production output can be influenced by:
Product Size and Shape
Different product dimensions require different feeding, film forming and sealing configurations.
Product Spacing
Stable spacing is necessary to prevent products from entering the sealing area incorrectly.
Feeding Method
Manual feeding, automatic feeding and upstream production equipment create different operating conditions.
Packaging Film
Film thickness, sealing characteristics and print registration can influence machine settings.
Product Characteristics
Fragile, irregular, sticky or soft products may require additional handling consideration.
This is why machine selection should always begin with the actual product rather than only a target speed.
Why Automatic Feeding Matters
In many packaging applications, feeding performance determines whether the flow wrapper can operate continuously.
Irregular feeding can lead to:
- empty bags;
- misplaced products;
- unnecessary film consumption;
- unstable seals;
- machine interruptions.
A properly designed feeding system helps maintain controlled product flow and allows the flow wrapper to achieve more stable real-world production performance.
For suitable projects, Soontrue can evaluate both the packaging machine and upstream feeding requirements as one system.
WP30 Robotic Palletizing System for End-of-Line Automation
After products are packed and placed into cases, the final stage of many production lines involves palletizing.
Manual palletizing often requires operators to repeatedly lift and position cartons throughout the production shift.
As production volume increases, this can create:
- labor pressure;
- inconsistent stacking;
- reduced downstream efficiency;
- difficulty matching palletizing speed with upstream production.
The WP30 Robotic Palletizing System is designed to automate this process.
It helps manufacturers create a more consistent and repeatable palletizing operation.
Why Use a Robotic Palletizer?
An automatic robotic palletizing system can help manufacturers:
Reduce Manual Handling
Robots perform repetitive carton lifting and stacking tasks.
Improve Pallet Consistency
Programmed stacking patterns help create more standardized pallets.
Support Production Growth
Palletizing automation can help downstream operations keep pace as upstream output increases.
Improve Labor Allocation
Operators can be reassigned from repetitive physical handling to production supervision, quality control, and other higher-value tasks.
What Information Is Needed for a Palletizing Project?
For an accurate robotic palletizing solution, manufacturers should provide:
- carton length, width and height;
- carton weight;
- production speed;
- conveyor height;
- pallet dimensions;
- required stacking height;
- pallet pattern;
- available installation space.
These details determine robot selection, gripper configuration, pallet layout and overall system design.
Can Flow Wrapping and Palletizing Be Part of the Same Automation Strategy?
Yes.
Although the SZ180 and WP30 perform different functions, they represent two important stages of packaging automation.
A broader packaging process may look like:
Product Feeding → Flow Wrapping → Inspection → Secondary Packaging → Case Packing → Case Sealing → Robotic Palletizing
Factories can automate these stages gradually.
For example:
A small or medium-sized manufacturer may first automate primary packaging with a horizontal flow wrapper.
As production expands, secondary packaging and palletizing can then become the next automation priorities.
This allows investment to follow real production needs rather than requiring complete automation at once.
Applications for SZ180 Flow Wrapping Solutions
Depending on product characteristics and configured feeding systems, horizontal flow wrapping may be suitable for:
- biscuit packaging;
- cookie packaging;
- bread packaging;
- bakery packaging;
- cake packaging;
- confectionery packaging;
- snack packaging;
- individual food packaging.
These applications create long-tail search needs such as:
- biscuit flow wrapping machine;
- automatic bakery packaging machine;
- bread flow wrapper;
- cookie packing machine;
- horizontal food packaging machine.
Soontrue evaluates each application according to actual product and packaging requirements.
Applications for WP30 Robotic Palletizing
Robotic palletizing can be considered for production lines handling:
- food cartons;
- beverage cartons;
- packaged consumer goods;
- industrial cartons;
- secondary packaged products.
Suitable projects typically involve repetitive carton flow and standardized pallet requirements.
