Gallant Engineering designed and delivered a custom case packer for stand-up retort pouches, built to handle flexible packing configurations without compromising speed or accuracy. The Challenge The customer required a single machine capable of packing stand-up retort pouches into two different case formats — one box of 12 pouches, or two boxes of 6 pouches each — to meet varying order and distribution requirements, without needing separate machines or manual changeover downtime.
Our Solution Leveraging our expertise in custom-engineered case packing systems, we developed a machine that seamlessly switches between both configurations with minimal changeover time. The system ensures consistent pouch orientation, secure case loading, and reliable performance across both formats — delivering the flexibility our customer needed without sacrificing throughput.
Key Features Dual-format capability: 1 box × 12 pouches or 2 boxes × 6 pouches Quick and easy changeover between configurations Precise, gentle handling suited for retort pouch packaging Consistent case-to-case accuracy and repeatability Compact, robust design built for continuous production environments Result The customer gained a single, versatile machine that adapts to multiple packaging requirements — improving operational flexibility, reducing equipment footprint, and streamlining their packaging line.
