previously
at

and
which
had
now
moved
to
Whiffler
Rd
Autowrappers
was
able
to
produce
a
larger
range
of
diverse
machines,

The
Robinson’s
Can
pack
system
Autowrappers
worked
along
side
Robinson’s
to
produce
a
can
collating
and
packing
machine
that
would
place
multiple
cans
in
a
sleeve.
Robinsons
produced
and
supplied
to
the
customers
the
cardboard
sleeve
that
would
wrap
around
the
cans.
this
project
allowed
Autowrappers
to
develop
other can handling systems in the future.

Due
to
some
customer
requirements
of
putting
labels
on
packs
after
they
have
been
wrapped,
Autowrappers
developed
this
range
of
machines
that
could
be
positioned
after
the
out-feed
of
the
Flow-
wrapper or cartoner and place a label on each pack.
