PACK EXPO 2014 reported record trade show attendance for the exhibitors and Ideal-Pak was no exception. Visitors to the Ideal-Pak booth saw the model AE6-LAM Automatic Net Weight Liquid Filling Machine, featuring the Ideal-Pak DFS® Direct Fill System. Serious buyers from the paint & coatings, chemical, lubricants and food and beverage industries visited the Ideal-Pak booth with specific filling expansion plans for 2015.

Ideal-Pak representatives were busy throughout the show demonstrating the AE6-LAM mentioned above as well as introducing many new potential customers to Ideal-Pak’s extensive line of automatic and semi-automatic filling machines. There was a significant interest in Ideal’s automatic net-weight (AE Series) and semi-automatic (ME Series) filling machines.

Ideal-Pak at PACK EXPO Las Vegas 2013 – Another Record-Breaker

Posted on by

Ideal-Pak enjoyed its most successful Pack Expo Las Vegas ever as measured by total booth attendees, total leads and number of new leads. Pack-Expo-2013-logo-smallVisitors to our booth included representatives from the paint & coatings, chemical, lubricants and food and beverage industries. If there was one dominant theme voiced by most booth visitors it was the need to improve productivity of their filling and packaging lines. For some this meant moving from 100% manual liquid filling to one of Ideal’s Performance Line semi-automated filling machines. For others it meant moving to one of Ideal’s fully automated Premier Line of filling machines. For many current Ideal customers it meant adding additional Ideal filling machine capacity. Next to productivity improvements many of our booth visitors expressed the need to move to net weight filling in order to improve the accuracy and improve the yields of their filling line operations.

As in past shows our Direct Fill System (DFS®), which we brought to the show along with one of our fully automated 4 spout Premier Filling Machines (Model AE4-LAM) continued to draw interest as a more efficient way fill containers with the added benefits of faster fill rates, faster clean-up and minimal batch change-over times.
