Overview
Packaging Machinery
Packaging lines change format often: bottle heights, pouch widths, carton sizes. Leadscrews with handwheels or motors make these adjustments quick and repeatable, while gears and racks drive the continuous motion of fillers, cappers and wrappers.

Applications in Packaging Machinery
Reduction stages in industrial gearboxes
Spur, helical and ground gears for the reduction stages of gearboxes driving conveyors, mixers, pumps and machines.
Right-angle drives
Bevel gears turn the drive through 90° in implement gearboxes, conveyors and packaging machines.
Long-travel gantries and slides
Rack and pinion drives move CNC plasma, router and handling gantries over long distances at speed.
Leadscrew linear actuators
How to choose the leadscrew and nut for a motor-driven linear actuator: lead for speed, self-locking for holding, diameter for length and load, and the right nut for accuracy and wear.
Format and guide-rail adjustment on packaging lines
Leadscrews set guide rails, heads and stops when a packaging line changes to a new bottle or pack size.
