Pactur provides end-of-line packaging machines for the final stages of industrial packaging, including automatic case sealing, labeling and pallet wrapping systems.

The Pactur Endline PRO range is designed to connect these operations with the upstream packaging process, creating a modular end-of-line solution that can be configured according to the product, production flow and factory layout.

From the shrink wrapping machine to the finished pallet, Pactur can combine different technologies to improve the continuity of the packaging process and reduce manual handling at the end of the production line.

End-of-Line Packaging from Product to Pallet

The end of a packaging line includes all the operations required after the primary or secondary packaging process to prepare products for handling, identification, storage and shipment.

Depending on the application, an automated end-of-line packaging system can include:

• shrink wrapping of individual or grouped products;
• carton handling and case sealing;
• automatic labeling for identification and logistics;
• product handling and transfer between packaging operations;
• pallet wrapping for load stabilization before storage or shipment.

The different modules can be configured as individual machines or combined into a more complete end-of-line packaging solution.

Automatic Case Sealers for Carton Closing

Pactur Endline PRO includes automatic case sealing systems designed to close cartons with adhesive tape at the final stage of the packaging process.

Depending on the selected configuration, case sealers can be incorporated into conveyor lines and connected with upstream and downstream equipment.

• automatic top and bottom carton sealing;
• controlled carton transport through the sealing unit;
• integration with industrial conveyor systems;
• configurations according to carton dimensions and production requirements;
• possibility of integration into existing packaging lines.

Automatic Labeling Systems for Packaging Lines

Automatic labeling can be integrated into the end-of-line process to identify cartons and packaged products as they move through the production line.

The Pactur Endline PRO labeling solution is designed for installation alongside the product conveyor and can be configured according to the required label position and packaging process.

• automatic label application on products or cartons;
• reel-based labeling configuration;
• compact design for integration into packaging lines;
• configuration according to product flow and application requirements.

Pallet Wrapping Machines for Load Stabilization

At the final stage of the packaging process, pallet wrapping machines apply stretch film around the palletized load to improve stability during handling, storage and transport.

Pactur Endline PRO can include pallet wrapping configurations based on the characteristics of the load and the required production process.

• stretch-film pallet wrapping;
• adjustable wrapping parameters;
• programmable operating cycles;
• solutions based on different pallet wrapping technologies;
• integration with the final stages of the packaging process.

Pactur Endline PRO: a Modular Packaging System

Not every production line requires the same degree of end-of-line automation. For this reason, Pactur Endline PRO can be configured using the modules required by the specific application.

A complete system can combine:

• shrink wrapping machine and shrink tunnel;
• product transfer and conveyor systems;
• automatic case sealing;
• inline labeling;
• pallet wrapping.

This modular approach makes it possible to develop the end-of-line process according to production requirements, available space and the level of automation required by the customer.

Integration with Shrink Wrapping Machines

One of Pactur’s main areas of expertise is shrink packaging. Endline PRO can therefore extend the packaging process downstream of a Pactur automatic shrink wrapping machine.

After shrink wrapping, products can be transferred through conveyors to subsequent handling, carton sealing, labeling and final pallet preparation operations.

This creates a more continuous packaging flow and allows the different stages of the line to be designed around the characteristics of the customer’s product.

Customized End-of-Line Packaging Solutions

Product dimensions, production speed, packaging configuration and available factory space determine how an end-of-line system should be designed.

Depending on the project, Pactur can evaluate customized layouts including conveyors, product handling devices and additional automation between the different packaging stages.

The objective is not simply to add individual machines, but to create a coordinated packaging flow from the shrink wrapping process to the final handling of the packaged product.

Made in Italy Packaging Expertise

Pactur is based in Zola Predosa, Bologna, Italy, where its shrink packaging machines are manufactured, assembled and tested.

The Endline PRO range extends Pactur’s packaging expertise beyond shrink wrapping, allowing customers to work with a single partner when developing a more complete secondary and end-of-line packaging process.

Pactur manufactures automatic shrink wrapping machines for industrial packaging lines, combining automatic product feeding, film sealing and shrink tunnel technology in a continuous packaging process.

The range includes automatic machines with L-sealing systems and continuous side sealing technology, allowing the packaging solution to be selected according to product dimensions, production speed, film characteristics and the required level of automation.

Designed and manufactured in Italy, Pactur automatic shrink wrappers can operate as stand-alone systems or be integrated into existing production and packaging lines.

Automatic Shrink Wrapping for Continuous Production

In an automatic shrink wrapping system, products are detected and transferred through the sealing process without requiring the operator to manually start each packaging cycle.

After sealing, the package enters the shrink tunnel, where controlled hot-air circulation shrinks the film around the product. Conveyor speed, sealing parameters and tunnel temperature can be adjusted according to the product and film being processed.

This configuration is particularly suitable for companies that need to increase packaging automation while maintaining consistent and repeatable production conditions.

L-Sealers and Continuous Side Sealers

Pactur develops different automatic sealing technologies according to the characteristics of the product and the required production process.

Automatic L-Sealing Machines

Automatic L-sealers create the package using transverse and longitudinal sealing around the product. They are suitable for a wide range of products and are commonly used when flexibility, packaging quality and automatic operation are required.

Automatic Shrink Wrapping Machines with Continuous Side Sealer

For products and production processes that benefit from continuous film sealing, Pactur also manufactures automatic shrink wrapping machines with continuous side sealing systems.

Continuous side sealing is particularly useful when handling products of different lengths, as the packaging process is not constrained by a conventional fixed-length sealing frame. This technology can therefore provide greater flexibility in automated packaging lines with variable product dimensions.
