Designed to maximise output without expanding footprint; dual robotic arms deliver precise, high-speed collation and case packing; can handle multiple SKUs simultaneously
British packaging solutions provider Bradman Lake has launched the WR6X robotic wraparound case packer, its latest innovation in case packing. Engineered to meet the demands of modern manufacturing, the WR6X offers a compact, high-speed solution for businesses seeking to increase packaging capacity without the need for additional factory space.
This state-of-the-art machine was developed in response to a challenge presented by a major UK-based food manufacturer, who required a flexible, space-efficient solution to meet rising consumer demand and the growing popularity of shelf-ready packaging (SRP) formats.
The WR6X comes with dual robotic arms operating in tandem to deliver precise, high-speed collation and case packing. Each side of the machine functions independently, enabling the simultaneous handling of multiple SKUs – ideal for manufacturers needing to respond swiftly to fluctuating market requirements.
Key features include low-level hoppers for easy replenishment and reduced downtime, independent case management and sealing units for mixed SKU production, integration of labelling units to minimise space, and a compact footprint allowing seamless integration into existing production environments.
The WR6X has already demonstrated its value in a live production environment, delivering increased throughput to meet growing demand, enhanced operational flexibility through dual-SKU capability, optimised use of factory space, and reduced downtime.
“The WR6X represents a significant step forward in packaging automation,” says Bradman Lake Head of Sales Dan Lake. “It combines cutting-edge robotics with intelligent design to deliver a solution that is not only fast and flexible but also space-conscious – something that’s increasingly vital in today’s manufacturing landscape.”
