Case Volume Reduction

OPITZ PACKAGING SYSTEMS

Reduce volume. Conserve resources. Automatic volume reducers.

The shipping industry is booming: Every day, more and more packages are being shipped in the B2B and B2C sectors in ever-shorter time frames. However, the increasing demands for fast delivery times and a diverse product range often result in inefficiently packed boxes. If a box is significantly larger than its contents, the need for filler and packaging materials increases—and with it, the costs associated with transportation, handling, and storage.

Our patented AMI case volume reducer makes your packaging process future-proof. The system automatically adjusts product-filled cases to their minimum required size and seals them securely for transport.

Volume reduction with adhesive tape closure

Our volume reducer for cartons with lid flaps, such as FEFCO 0201, automatically determines the fill level of the goods in the open carton. The corners of the side walls are precisely cut to match the determined fill level. The cut side walls, including the lid flaps, are folded in and securely sealed with tape (self-adhesive tape or sustainable water activated tape).

Trust in our more than 15 years of experience in volume reduction and the highest standards of quality, user-friendliness and ease of maintenance on the market.

Volume reduction with lid application

With this version as well — designed for cartons without lid flaps, such as FEFCO 0200 or FEFCO 0453 — the fill height of the product in the open carton is automatically determined. The corners of the side walls are precisely cut to match the determined fill height. The cut side walls are folded in. The carton is then securely glued and sealed with a separate lid.

Advantages at a glance

Using state-of-the-art measurement technology, the fully automatic machine automatically detects the minimum required packaging height and adapts precisely to each product. It then cuts the corners of the cardboard box cleanly and safely, folds the lid without wasting material and seals it with either adhesive tape or glue – for an efficient, clean and resource-saving packaging solution.

The parcels contain up to 85% less air, which reduces the amount of filling material required and significantly cuts costs.
