Festo also debuts innovative palletizing kits, an adaptive gripper for fragile foods, and condition-monitoring.

CODI Manufacturing introduces at Pack Expo a new series of gantry palletizers that compare in price to cobot palletizers but offer higher performance and lower total cost of ownership. The new Flex Stack series is based on world-class Festo mechatronic technology and is displayed at the Festo Pack Expo booth. 

Festo introduces a line of pre-configured, assembled, and tested compressed air preparation units that not only makes specification and ordering faster and easier, but also ensures clean air in food and beverage production. Right out of the box, the new units meet the Safe Quality Food (SQF) guidelines of final filtration stage 0.01 micron (µm) and a particulate removal efficiency of 99.999% at the point of food and beverage contact.
