The
IPak team has been engineering, manufacturing, servicing and
installing tray forming, stacking, sealing, conveying, case
erecting, and other packaging line machinery for more than
40 years. In 1999, IPak's principals engineered innovative
new tray forming machinery that would solve the packaging
line challenges their customers were facing and better meet
the requirements presented by new corrugated tray designs.
They believed they could build, install and support that machinery
at competitive prices. Their experience in engineering and
manufacturing as well as the insights gained servicing, repairing
and modifying other manufacturer's machinery to meet the continually
changing needs of their customers enabled them to design tray
formers, flange sealers, stackers, sleeve wrappers, and packaging
lines that would be more versatile and durable than the machinery
they had been repairing and servicing.
Today
IPak offers more than 40 models of durable packaging machinery,
from solid entry level machines for small processors installing
their first automated packaging line to sophisticated machinery
for high speed lines running multiple container styles and
sizes on lines that run 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. IPak's
experience with corrugated design and production provides
an advantage over many competitors in that IPak engineering
and support group truly understand container design and function
as well as the correlation between the tray blank and the
machine forming process. IPak's talented engineering team
and dedicated workforce coupled with regional sales and support
staff have produced satisfied customers in a broad range of
industries in all four corners of North America.
IPak's
ruggedly engineered all-mechanical drive systems provide optimal
performance and reliability at sustained high speeds. Dual
cams and offset vacuum cups "peel" blanks from the
hopper for reliable picking. Chain and lug drive systems coupled
with high-speed digital timers ensure reliable glue application.
Heavy-duty construction ensures long-lived performance under
all operating conditions, while Quick Change features allow
for fast, easy size changes. Moving parts on all IPak machines
are shielded by a combination of metal and fully interlocked
Lexan safety guards to protect operators, and IPak will adhere
to customer specifications for mechanical, electrical and
safety components.
