Mechanical transmissions for the packaging sector: Stagnoli at Pack Expo 2024
4 December 2024
We participated in the Pack Expo 2024 trade fair, held in Chicago, USA, from 3 to 6 November 2024. Dedicated to the packaging industry, the event was attended by almost 50,000 visitors and brought together all the major players in this professional field in a single trade fair, which was packed with presentations, stands and workshops.
Our company fit perfectly into this context as an industry leader. We have extensive experience in the design, moulding, machining and production of technopolymer mechanical components for the packaging industry. We guarantee our customers know-how and the utmost care at all stages of the process, offering high-performance mechanical components with rigorous dimensional accuracy.
Customised mechanical components for the packaging sector: one of Stagnoli's many specialities
The packaging sector has undergone considerable changes in recent years: the increasing industrial automation and technologies available for packaging production have radically changed the industries and machining methods.
As we have in-depth experience in the moulding, machining and production of plastic gears, we guarantee considerable know-how in the design and manufacture of customised or standard technopolymer mechanical transmissions for the packaging industry. Implementing plastic gears in packaging production machinery brings great advantages in terms of both production and use. The use of our plastic gears makes it possible to:
- reduce the weight and noise of machinery, prolonging its use and significantly cutting business costs;
- eliminate lubrication, reducing maintenance and providing economic and time savings for professionals;
- require less economic investment than the same metal solutions.
Our commercial components exactly replicate the dimensions of their steel counterparts, proving to be a viable and favourable alternative to metal gears. They also reduce procurement time, as they are always available in stock, and avoid any equipment costs. They can be customised according to drawings because we have a post-moulding machining department that allows us to produce tolerance holes, tab seats and threaded holes, among others. This avoids an additional step from a third-party supplier and further reduces costs.
In conclusion, our production of technopolymer transmission elements and gears for packaging machines allows us to offer a wide range of high quality and easy-to-use parts. They are used by manufacturers of all kinds of packaging machines, including pallet wrapping machines, packaging machines, die-cutters and bottling machines.
Other customers in the packaging sector, especially in packaging lines, have installed timing belt pulleys and belt tensioners made of technopolymer, which considerably lightens the machinery and eliminates any annoying squeaks.
