Reusable packaging for train wagon seats

Especially developed for a project with Siemens Mobility Austria GmbH, this reusable packaging was ideally adapted to its use by PAWEL packing & logistics GmbH. The boxes are designed in such a way that, when folded, both -the head parts and the hinged side parts- can be placed in the pallet with a frame. The lid is put over it and a compact unit is created, which can be transported back to its place of use in stacks of eight pieces.

This reusable packaging has been optimally adapted to the seats to be transported and with many details, such as foldable side walls, designed for a total of two and a half years of use. The special thing about this reusable design is the fine tuning of the product and its use.

Flexible innovative coil packaging

The plywood boxes are used to hold coils with sleeves placed exclusively in the side wall.

Due to a new design of the base (2 longitudinal stacks, which are additionally fixed by the headers), the massive pallet construction could be minimized and still the stability could be improved.

About 33% less wood is used than before. The pallet construction and the bolting of the crate also make it suitable for use as a reusable crate. The new type of longitudinal stacking equipment inside, fixed by the side walls, allows variable displacement of the pallet blocks. The standardization of the width with simultaneous variability of the pallet blocks (positioning under the headers) allows a variability of up to 20 cm in length, so that the packaging variety could be significantly reduced. The smooth outer surface improves the appearance and allows a

Optimized container-compatible engine packaging

The further development of an already existing engine packaging has succeeded here with bravura.

The rotation of the engines by 90 degrees in the container-compatible transport packaging, results ultimately in a 13 percent improvement in container utilization: 162 instead of 144 engines per container.

The wooden nests inside, which are used for fixing the filling material, are plugged in and can thus be set up quickly without the need for tools. The material input for the wood (m3) is reduced by 15 percent, for the corrugated board by 17 percent and the transport volume is reduced by 11 percent.

Despite these considerable savings, this ingenious design ensures optimum transport safety, because the container-width pallets mean that no additional load securing is required in the container.

Shock-absorbing reusable box with integrated access ramp for in-house transport and subsequent export

This award-winning reusable packaging is characterized above all by its added value benefits. The focus is on functionality and safety.     

The 15 mm thick plywood box serves not only as transport packaging for highly sensitive expensive equipment, but also serves as temporary

storage already during the production process.

 

The reusable box is characterized by:

  • "tailoring" to the product,
  • practical and well thought-out transport packaging,
  • optimized as well as process-related handling,
  • optimal transport safety.

Universal transport box for container and truck shipping

The universal transport box - an extraordinarily well thought-out corrugated cardboard construction that is slipped over a wooden pallet

that can be driven on from four sides - impresses with its functionality. Starting with protruding corners that fix the box to the pallet, through the optimal container utilization of 96 percent, to flat storage.

Another convincing argument is that wooden stacks can be placed in the corners, which ensure greater stability and thus significantly increase stackability. The fixation is made by holders that are "activated" by simply pushing them out. A significant development in this packaging are also the integrated tabs with which the lid can be fixed to allow easy filling. This was implemented by punching the lids themselves.

Container-compatible packaging for engines Our prize-winning packaging is characterised by a lower packaging weight, simple separable material components, cost-optimised combinations of wood and corrugated cardboard as well as easy handling. The further development of smaller engine packaging improves container utilisation by 13% and thus makes it possible to load a 20’’ with 108 instead of 96 engines. The special interior set-up, consisting of milled plywood components, means that the engines need not be fixed inside the packaging. The high stackability (5 times), which results from the combination of triple wall corrugated heavy cardboard and reinforcement with wood battens in the corners, optimises storage options.

Transport frame for truck axles This new development of container-compatible export packaging for lorry axles for many different types of front and rear axles can be stacked many times and accessed from all four sides. The packaging unit was designed in such a way as to allow quick filling in the container without additional filling materials for width. This special design increases container utilisation by 50% compared to previous packaging solutions.

Seaworthy multiple-use packaging for underground train carriages

This transport packaging for train and overseas transport (Vienna - Boston, USA), which was designed as multiple-use packaging, is made up of a special wooden construction and a three-part tarp shaped like a hood. Tested levers, which are fixed to the carriage’s floor during transport, not only guarantee best-possible transport safety and statically balanced bearing areas, but also easy and safe handling. The hood is equipped with airing flaps for pressure equalisation and an opening flap for customs checks. The packaging solutions above all offers economic benefits compared to a box construction.
