Pacline Conveyors is excited to announce the launch of its new Robotics and Automation division, which will focus on integrating Pacline conveyor systems and robotics to offer a greater scope of turnkey solutions for valued distributors, integrators, and end-users. The Robotics and Automation division has its own dedicated facility and will provide efficient concepting, design engineering, project management, on-site support, and installation throughout North America. Pacline will continue to offer stand-alone conveyor products to distributors and integrators who supply robotics/automation themselves and for projects that do not require robotic integration. “We are excited to be launching our new Robotics and Automation department. With the increased demand for automation in the material handling industry, it was a natural progression to start designing turnkey automation solutions for our customers,” said Karl Scholz, President of Pacline Conveyors. In addition, the company will unveil its latest innovation at the upcoming ProMat Show in Chicago, IL, on March 20-23rd. Pacline Conveyors will showcase a robot loading and unloading system for empty cartons onto an overhead conveyor, designed to increase efficiency, reduce labor costs, and improve safety in warehouse and distribution center operations. The system will use the signature PAC-LINE™ enclosed track conveyor in conjunction with a cobot utilizing a vacuum generator and suction-cup-based end effector for loading and unloading empty cartons onto and from an overhead conveyor. Attendees of the ProMat Show will have the opportunity to see the robot loading and unloading system in action at booth S2495, meet the Pacline team, and learn more about automating operations.

Angelini Technologies - Fameccanica Solutions Featured at ProMat 2025 in ChicagoChicago, March the 17th 2025 - Papick, ItPick and Depax are the robotics solutions dedicated to the logistics and forwarding sector that Angelini Technologies – Fameccanica - a company of Angelini Industries, an Italian industrial group active in the health, industrial technology and FMCG sectors - is presenting during these days at ProMat 2025, the global leading event for industrial technologies for manufacturing, distribution and supply chain, which is being held until March the 20th in Chicago.Angelini Technologies- Fameccanica, as a leading industrial technology company and end-to-end system integrator, presents three applications that embody the path the company is pursuing to design technologically advanced, scalable, modular, and integrated Warehouse&Logistics systems that can respond to different needs while achieving high levels of performance and efficiency.Modular and customized solutions are developed to adapt to specific layouts and to meet different technological needs (from the simplest to the most sophisticated tasks) thanks to the use of 3D vision systems based on artificial intelligence and installed at the end of the robotic arm. They are conceived from the design stage for large-scale productions for global installations and rollout.Specifically, Papick is an automated sorting system for the collection of parcels weighing up to 5 kg, primarily designed for the e-commerce and postal sorting sectors. Thanks to AI integrated vision systems, advanced workflow management and efficient barcode reading systems, Papick can pick and sort, with a single robotic arm, up to 1800 packages per hour with an efficiency of over 98%.Depax, indeed, is a depalletizer, a platform capable of transferring objects or packages of different sizes from a pallet. Depax combines robotics and advanced machine vision to manage the randomness of incoming pallets and perform depalletizing with maximum precision. Depax processes up to 600 cycles per hour with dimensions of up to 60x60 cm and up to 30 kg in weight. The system is intended for all operators in the shipping industry who handle arrivals of mixed pallets with highly variable and unknown contents.A particularly versatile solution is ItPick, an automated system capable of picking individual products and therefore adaptable to different configurations. It has a high-speed performance of up to 1600 cycles per hour and an accuracy of over 95%. It can effortlessly handle different product variants in terms of color, shape, material, weight, opacity or surface flatness.At the fair will also be present an integrated and modular solution, End of Line, that is placed downstream of the manufacturing plants and carries secondary packaging: it wraps products inside the boxes and palletizes them. The system consists of different modules such as box forming, box filling, box closing, palletizing island with automatic pallet management. Each module has its own intelligence and a central system that manages all modules and the movement of packages between them, including the various quality controls necessary to ensure the highest quality standards and tracking. The modularity of the system allows it to adapt to any plant layout requirement. In addition, the individual modules are enhanced by robotics and digital control that provides flexibility to change boxing patterns and palletizing matrices. The system is capable of processing up to 90 incoming products and filling up to 30 boxes per minute.“Participating in one of the main events for the automation and robotics industry including Warehouse Logistics on a global level – explains Luigi De Vito, CEO of Angelini Technologies – Fameccanica - allows us to seize an important opportunity to share our innovative and large-scale solutions and further to strengthen our presence in the United States, where we already have facilities in Cincinnati, Ohio. It also helps us listening to the needs of a constantly evolving global market increasingly focused on issues of efficiency and sustainability”.Sustainability is another of the main drivers of the design activities of Angelini Technologies - Fameccanica, which has also recently developed and patented Greenpackt®, the first machine for the automated production of eco-sustainable packaging, which allows a reduction of about 50% in CO2 emissions compared to the production of similar plastic packs. The robotic system developed by the company for single-dose detergent capsules also goes in the same direction: thanks to an accurate detergent dosing system, which also involves the use of artificial intelligence, it is possible to minimize production waste while maintaining a high production speed.The numbers of Angelini Technologies - FameccanicaWith more than 700 employees in Italy, the USA and China, more than 200 million in turnover, 80% of which comes from exports, and more than 1,200 patent rights, Angelini Technologies - Fameccanica operates not only in “converting”, the production of industrial machines in the 'hygiene' sector (production of items such as nappies, sanitary napkins and single-dose detergent capsules), but also in robotics and industrial automation, mainly applied to the logistics of organised distribution and e-commerce. The third area of activity is sustainable packaging, which led to the development of Greenpackt®. From the year of its foundation in 1975 to date, Angelini Technologies - Fameccanica has built 1,300 production plants, sold in 58 countries. The company operates from three production sites in Italy (San Giovanni Teatino, in the province of Chieti), China (Shanghai) and the United States (West Chester, OH) of the 700 employees, more than 600 work at the Italian headquarters in San Giovanni Teatino, of which more than 200 are engineers involved in research and development, hardware and software design and production.The company was founded in 1975 by Angelini and was an equal joint venture between the Angelini Group and P&G from 1992 to 2022. In 2022 Angelini Industries regained 100% control by acquiring 50% from P&G.ContactAngelini Technologies Anna Pia ChiarandiniHead of Global Communications Angelini Technologiesannapia.chiarandini@angelinitechnologies.comSEC Newgate ItalyDaniele Murgia - daniele.murgia@secnewgate.it - tel. +39 3384330031Fausta Tagliarini - fausta.tagliarini@secnewgate.it - tel. +39 3476474513Daniele Pinosa - daniele.pinosa@secnewgate.it - tel. +39 3357233872Giulia Cominotti - giulia.cominotti@secnewgate.it - tel. +39 3391499949
