Emmepi Group has recently confirmed the successful completion of a major installation at Klabin Piracicaba II Unit, a cutting-edge facility located in Piracicaba, Brazil. This landmark project represents a significant leap forward in the corrugated industry, underscoring Emmepi Group’s leadership in automation and innovative solutions.
The Klabin Piracicaba II site, one of the largest and most advanced facilities in the Americas, is equipped with two corrugators and nine flexo converting lines. Emmepi Group supplied a comprehensive automated production flow system from the corrugators to the finished goods line.
The installation featured advanced technologies such as corrugator exit lines with X-Y matching systems, compactor lines, infeed/outfeed lines, WIP vertical storage with stacker cranes and automated palletisers for the casemaker. The finished goods exit line consisted of pallet inserters, top cover inserters, multi-level horizontal storage systems, strapping and redoubling machines and pallet presses.
The installation included the integration of WIP vertical storage and palletisers, designed to optimise production flow and ensure maximum efficiency. The Emmepi Group equipment was seamlessly integrated with Klabin Piracicaba II Unit’s ERP system to facilitate optimal plant performance and monitoring.
Emmepi Group’s bespoke solutions at Klabin Piracicaba II Unit exemplify the company’s expertise in creating integrated, automated systems that not only meet but exceed industry standards. A notable innovation is the horizontal WIP storage for pallets, situated on a mezzanine floor, which efficiently manages pallet flow to meet production demands. Each component of the installation is meticulously designed to work in harmony with the others, resulting in a facility that operates with unparalleled efficiency and reliability. The Klabin Piracicaba II Unit installation highlighted Emmepi Group’s commitment to delivering comprehensive and customised solutions.
