Is the reject lane SKU-aware, or is it a straight out-of-spec drop?

Reject is triggered off weight + vision. Rejected packs carry a timestamp + reason code into the line's MES export — lets you trace yield by shift or operator if you plug into yours.

What's the realistic SKU changeover time, machine idle to first-good-pack?

Under 20 minutes for a same-pattern SKU (same tray & glue pattern). A cross-pattern change with tooling swap is ~90 minutes — we can share the OEM changeover SOP.

PackMaster PM-6000, Detroit

Name: Automated Packaging Line
Brand: PackMaster
Availability: InStock

A 2023 PackMaster PM-6000 fully automated packaging line — infeed belt, tray denester, four-head servo case-packer, ink-jet coder, and a weight-check / reject station in-line. Configured for folding-carton retail packs up to 450 × 280 × 160 mm at 60 packs / minute nominal. Original installation at a Belgian confectionery plant that offshored the SKU. Comes disassembled into five road-freight sections, with the full commissioning documentation and the OEM-trained installer's contact on file. Ideal as a drop-in replacement for manual case-packing.

Belt at roughly 60% service life; OEM part number on file. Denester arms and vacuum cups swapped in 2025.

Servo case packera

4 heads track within 0.3 mm of each other. No servo-drive faults in the last 12 months of operation.

Ink-jet coderc

Print-head is OEM-consumable; plan to replace at re-commissioning. Coder body, cables and controller are sound.

Weight-check stationa

Load cells calibrated against a traceable 500 g test weight. Reject mechanism cycles cleanly.

Inspection

When we looked inside.

Automated packaging line inspected module-by-module at the retiring Belgian confectionery site. Servo case-packer tracking within 0.3 mm head-to-head. Ink-jet coder print-head flagged for consumable replacement at re-commissioning — other modules sound. 9-page report attached.
