A mobile pallet wrapping machine called The Omni Motus will be on show at AUSPACK 2017.

Designed to increase warehouse productivity, according to its Australian distributor AAA Packaging Supplies, the mobile pallet truck-type stretch-wrapping machine is battery-operated and has a rotary arm wrapping system to circle the pallet itself while applying the stretch film.

The machine was developed to increase the efficiency of unloading, palletising, and wrapping loose products from shipping containers.

It was designed and manufactured by the Omni Group's technical engineers in Italy.

The Omni Motus is distributed in Australia by AAA Packaging Supplies, which is part of the Omni group. The team will be on stand 311 at Auspack.

CCEP has completed a $39.7m manufacturing upgrade at its Kewdale facility in WA, installing a high-speed can production line that increases capacity by more than 40% and lifts production speeds to 1500 cans per minute.

Nearly 6 in 10 Aussies in food and beverage manufacturing believe their organisation is becoming less productive, despite continued investment in workplace technology, according to Argon & Co.

Every food, drink, personal care and household product made in Australia starts with an investment decision. A company chooses to replace a production line, automate a process or expand a plant. That choice is now made in a global market for capital, and Australia is struggling to compete. The question is simple. Will the next generation of manufacturing investment come here?
