Case Study: MattPak scales with automated palletizing and case packing from Formic

MattPak scales automation with Formic across 55,000 square feet

MattPak, an Illinois-based contract manufacturer, faced the challenge of meeting diverse customer demands while needing to automate repetitive, high-risk palletizing tasks without a large upfront investment or internal robotics expertise. They partnered with Formic Technologies to utilize their Robots-as-a-Service model, which provided a flexible, full-service automation solution.

Formic deployed three palletizing systems with minimal downtime, using augmented reality for smooth installation. The solution eliminated manual changeover downtime, improved efficiency, and allowed employees to be reassigned to higher-value work. By paying a monthly fee instead of a large capital expense, MattPak achieved immediate operational savings and is now expanding automation to other parts of its production line.
