Product Launch

SHERIDAN, WYOMING - May 10, 2026 - At Interpack 2026, the IMA Group will present a comprehensive suite of new manufacturing and packaging technologies with 38 machines operating live across a 4,500 square meter exhibition space. The booth is structured around the concept of "Cognitive Manufacturing," which envisions production environments featuring autonomous robotics and artificial intelligence integration designed to improve the interaction between systems, services, and personnel. Visitors will experience distinct areas including "The Loop" for future automation capabilities, "IMA Service" for advanced analytics, and "IMA OPENLab" dedicated to material research and sustainable packaging. Ultimately, the event serves as the launch platform for numerous machines serving the pharmaceutical, medical device assembly, and consumer goods sectors.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING - May 10, 2026 - SEW-EURODRIVE has officially introduced the OrchestrationSuite, a comprehensive web-based software platform tailored specifically for system integrators, machine builders, and packaging line operators, at the interpack 2026 trade exhibition. This newly developed system establishes a centralized administrative environment designed to manage diverse automation software across components sourced from entirely different hardware manufacturers. By consolidating the operational workflows required for programmable logic controllers, industrial drives, robotics, and human-machine interface systems, the platform directly addresses the heavy administrative burdens historically caused by fragmented engineering tools and cumbersome manual update processes.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING - May 10, 2026 - Syntegon has introduced a new corner-seal function for its SVX vertical form-fill-seal packaging platform, scheduled for display at the interpack 2026 exhibition. The mechanical upgrade allows food manufacturers to produce complex bag styles on a single machine without sacrificing line speed. By automating critical film adjustments and reducing setup waste, the updated architecture specifically targets production bottlenecks in the confectionery, snack, and bakery sectors. This technological expansion provides plant operators with increased manufacturing flexibility while maintaining high overall equipment effectiveness.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING - May 10, 2026 - Syntegon has introduced its neXt system architecture, an integrated automation platform designed for modern food packaging lines. Showcased at the interpack 2026 exhibition, this operational ecosystem links new machinery with cloud software and autonomous robots. It directly addresses acute labor shortages, increasing safety requirements, and rising production costs across the manufacturing sector. By eliminating repetitive manual tasks, the framework allows factory personnel to focus on higher-value facility operations. The initial rollout features two main hardware components: the HFX platform for flow-wrapping and the TRX system for topload cartoning.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING - May 10, 2026 - Syntegon will launch a fully integrated packaging line for frozen food products at the interpack 2026 exhibition. The new hardware directly links the established SVX Agile vertical bagging machine with the newly developed Elematic 4001 gravity case packer. This combination provides food manufacturers with a seamless transition from primary pouch forming to secondary carton loading. By operating as a unified system rather than isolated units, the platform helps production managers reduce shipping volumes, lower logistics costs, and simplify machine operation on the factory floor.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING - May 10, 2026 - Syntegon has announced the introduction of its next-generation manufacturing platforms under the "Factory of the Future" concept. These systems directly target automation and efficiency demands across the food, pharmaceutical, and biotechnology sectors. Presenting at the interpack 2026 trade fair, the company is demonstrating how new robotic, digital, and artificial intelligence-supported systems can minimize operator intervention. The operational rollout highlights the new neXt and SVX platforms for high-speed food packaging, alongside the SynTiso glove-free isolator line for liquid pharmaceutical filling. These integrated systems are engineered to help facility operators navigate stricter regulatory requirements while actively increasing overall equipment effectiveness and production flexibility.
