Smart Conveyors Streamline Wet Wipes Packaging Challenges
High-speed automation for folding, wetting, cutting, and piling of wet wipes presents throughput challenges when fragile stacks of newly-produced wipes are transferred to downstream primary and secondary packaging machinery operating at lower throughput speeds. Smart conveying solutions, such as Slip-Torque® roller technology, Dynamic Accumulation, SmartFeed®, and flexible product control devices – developed by Shuttleworth – enable high-speed end-of-line throughput of delicate wet wipes while maximizing uptime, minimizing product damage, and maintaining industry standards for cleanliness.

Smarter Conveying for Precision Product Control and Faster Throughput on Filling and Packaging Lines
Equipment failure can cause a lot of problems on a packaging line, especially when it comes to conveying systems that transport products across various production stations. And with automated lines that require high speeds, having reliable conveyors that don’t jam, misfire, fail prematurely, or stop unexpectedly for any reason is critical. Read more about a smart roller technology that provides precise product control and faster throughput on filling and packaging lines in the white paper below.
Smart Conveying Improves eCommerce Order Fulfillment of Delicate Gift Items
Today, eCommerce companies are challenged to quickly fulfill orders. Next-day and even same-day delivery are no longer perks for eCommerce consumers, they are expectations. Consumers are demanding more choices, and are willing to change brand allegiance to get better value and service. To remain competitive, every step in the eCommerce fulfillment process must be handled accurately, efficiently, and quickly to maintain a positive customer experience. Learn how one online fulfillment company has mastered this challenge by integrating smart conveying automation and devices into their packaging line.
Understanding the Causes of Stainless-Steel Corrosion in Retorts and Practical Steps to Prevent Corrosion
Because stainless steel is easily cleaned and does not rust under normal
conditions, it is the preferred metal for food processing machines used in
wet environments. A little-known fact about stainless steel is that it is prone to unique types of corrosion when the metal is exposed to a specific set of environmental factors. Read more about corrosion producing conditions that can exist during the operation of stainless-steel batch retorts.
