With capabilities to adjust package length, width and height, the fitPACK 500 can create a package according to product dimensions, yielding smaller, right-sized packages that lead to lower shipping costs. Take a tour of fitPACK 500 through our interactive video experience and learn why fitPACK is the perfect fit for your order fulfillment.
Designed by Tension Packaging & Automation and assembled in Colorado, the fitPACK 500 is a “right-sized” order fulfillment packaging system. It is designed for efficiency, reduces waste and creates cost savings. Tailored for variable-sized items with capabilities to adjust package length, width, and height for each product, it packages without compromising speed. Because the fitPACK 500 can create a package according to size, it yields smaller, tighter, right-sized packages, leading to lower shipping costs.
fitPACK 500 can create 10-20 packages per minute with proprietary technology that allows for the package to be created, deflated, and labeled in one seamless process.
The highly versatile fitPACK 500 can seamlessly run different product sizes through the system and create a right-sized package without operators needing to batch products or complete manual changeovers.
fitPACK 500 is customized to allow for simplified, innovative package width trimming. Our approach to trimming excess width in the packaging material makes handling different product sizes and types more flexible and effortless.
fitPACK 500 is engineered to create the utmost quality seal. FitPACK 500 creates a consistent strong seal through the pressure seal module with only two sealing operations vs. three seals.
Through its innovative design, fitPACK 500 offers warehouse distribution operations the ability to create packages according to the product size. This allows distribution centers to process orders with multiple products in varying sizes with right-sized packages, yielding reduced shipping costs and without compromising throughput.
Productivity – fitPACK was custom designed to create a right-sized package without compromising throughput.
Reduced Package Waste – Because fitPACK creates each package according to product size, package recipients receive packages with reduced package waste. A waste collection bin collects any excess width trim material.
Lower Shipping Costs – Because many carriers assign shipping costs according to the package size, having the right-size package helps get the right shipping rate and can lead to significant savings on shipping costs over time.
Product Protection – Packages are custom made to fit each individual product or product grouping, creating secure, tight packages to better protect the contents inside.
Intuitive HMI – fitPACK 500 is powered by Tension’s proprietary TensionConnect software that integrates any 3rd party systems. Its smart features include intuitive user interface designed to reduce operator training time.
High Versatility – fitPACK 500 can run different product sizes that call for different film widths through an intelligent 3D scanner. Its unique design allows operators to feed products without having to batch products or perform manual film changeovers.
Modern Modularity – fitPACK 500 has enhanced options for those looking to further improve productivity. Available upgrades include an LPN printer to provide package verification and complete packaging tracking capabilities, and an option for “two-way” packaging that features a perforation and adhesive strip for package returns.
