Douglas Machine Inc. customized its Apex Sleever machine to improve the package integrity for multi-packs of bottles and cups of nutritional drinks and yogurts. To better pack two-, four- or six-packs of the bottles, the Apex Sleever positions and locks bottle tops into notches in the sleeve and folds gussets into the bottom corners of the sleeve to contain the base of the bottles. Apex Sleever’s high-speed capabilities and its ability to tightly contain multi-packs of cups and bottles offer a new packaging solution for producers, the company says.
