One of the most frequently asked questions about automated packaging and a very understandable one; when will you recoup the investment? On average, the ROI of a CVP Impack or CVP Everest is between 24 and 36 months. However, there are also customers who have recouped the investment within a year. With a custom-sized box, you save an average of 50% on box volume and therefore also on transport movements. A saving that can quickly increase given the current price hikes. There is also a significant reduction in cardboard consumption, which can be around 30% per year. Additionally, an automated packaging line works up to 20 times faster than manual packaging stations.
It is often thought that you need to send thousands of packages a day for an interesting ROI. That turns out not to be the case. From about 800 packages a day, there is already an interesting business case.
Besides the number of packages sent per day, there are more motivations to invest in an automated packaging line. Being ready for future growth, the tight labor market, rising transport costs, or the obligation to package sustainably are frequently heard reasons to invest in an automated packaging machine for custom-sized boxes.
Some countries do. The Dutch government promotes sustainable economic growth and wants to encourage the use of environmentally friendly equipment. The CVPs from Sparck Technologies are listed on the Environmental List. Therefore, the Environmental Investment Allowance (MIA) and the Arbitrary Depreciation of Environmental Investments (Vamil) apply to the purchase of the machine. The tax advantage can therefore amount to over 11% net.
Yes, they can. It does not matter how many orders go into the box or if the shape of the order is round, square, or hexagonal. From eight shoeboxes to one headphone, it can all be packed in one box. Once the order has passed through the 3D scanner, the machine knows which size box needs to be cut from the strip of endless cardboard. In practice, both CVPs can package about 85% to 90% of the average stock of a warehouse.
That our machines package in cardboard is a conscious choice. Cardboard is 100% recyclable and therefore more environmentally friendly. And while steps are indeed being taken in the field of recycled plastic, it is estimated that more than 8 million tons still end up in the ocean annually. Additionally, cardboard as a packaging material offers better protection during transport, is easier to stack, and makes returns for the end customer much simpler.
The packaging industry may be one of the fastest growing industries in the world today. From tabletop semi-automatic machines to fully automatic production lines, packaging machines allow products to reach consumers in a fast and safe manner.

The term packaging machinery includes a large variety of equipment. Packaging machinery can refer to finishing machines, carousels, power conveyors, liquid filling machines, capping equipment, or any other number of machines. The term packaging machinery can also refer to a complete packaging line manufactured for a specific project. In other words, the term packaging machinery is a very general term. When companies start looking for packaging machinery, few, if any, two companies look for the same thing.
There are many things we need to take into account when we purchase a correct packaging machine. This is essential to choose the right one to benefit your project. Otherwise, it will spend you more cost and time for replacement and maintenance. As a professional packing machine manufacturer with over 30 years of experience, we will list the most five important considerations when purchasing a packaging machine. Hope this article can help you a lot.
Once the equipment is determined to handle the product, the packager must move on to selecting the actual packaging to hold the product. Whether bottles and caps or other containers and closures, machines must be able to handle every component of the packaging. For automated machinery, the focus here will be on the conveyor system and, to a lesser extent, each machine through which a bottle or other container will pass. Obviously, the conveyor system must be able to efficiently transfer containers from one packaging stage to the next. The capping machine also needs to stabilize the bottles and adjust the torque or other capping mechanism to seal these bottles reliably at all times. The labeling machine needs to be able to orient and always place the label in the correct position. Therefore, before choosing packaging equipment, you must first choose a container and seal.
When looking for packaging machinery for any project, the first thing to consider is the product itself. The equipment must be able to handle the product to be packaged. Of course, the main focus of this analysis will be on filling machines, as they are often the only machines that actually come into contact with the product. The filling machine chosen needs to be able to handle the viscosity of the product as well as any other unique product characteristics. But stopping the analysis on the filling machine is wrong for many different products. For example, some aggressive chemicals simply do not interact well with stainless steel (the construction material of most packaging machines).
When using multiple products or packages, it is necessary to consider each product as well as the combination of containers and seals. It would be a mistake to assume every time that because one product or package runs smoothly on a particular packer, all other products and packages will work properly. Going back to the filler, assume that a 16-ounce bottle and a 1-gallon bottle will both be filled on a machine with a submersible head. While the 16-ounce bottle will work perfectly on the filler, the gallon bottle may still have a problem. If the gallon bottle is tall, the fill head may not rise high enough to properly fill the container. If the gallon bottle is wide, the fill head may not be able to adjust left or right to accommodate multiple containers at once, severely reducing productivity.
Knowing the productivity of a given product will help in selecting the appropriate level of automation for a packaging facility. Lower production facilities can be addressed with less space and desktop or semi-automatic packaging equipment and higher levels of manual labor. Production facilities with higher product requirements may need to scrutinize automated packaging equipment and ensure it can meet daily monthly or even annual demand. Likewise, in practice, packagers need to work closely with manufacturers to ensure that the equipment purchased meets the needs of consumers.
Having equipment that meets current needs is usually the focus of packagers purchasing machines. But remember, almost everyone who packages a product expects future demand for that product to increase. Acquired packaging machinery should not become obsolete with the addition of some new retailer or consumer. Most packaging machinery can be upgraded and has the ability to grow as the company itself grows. Therefore, buying a packing machine or packaging line not only needs to suit your present needs but also your future needs.
