Adhesive Tape Individual & Multipack Packaging Line

Automatic Label Sleeve Applicator, LG-150 (CE) with Heat Shrink Tunnels, ES-130 (CE), and Sleeve Sleever SSA-600 with Film Shrink Tunnel, DS-500E for Adhesive Tape Individual & Multipack Packaging Line

How Can Individual and Multipack Packaging Be Integrated into One Production Line?

Packaging adhesive tape involves more than applying shrink sleeves. To achieve a fully automated process from individual packaging to 10-pack multipack packaging, every production stage must work together seamlessly, including product feeding, positioning, sleeve shrinking, separator paper insertion, product orientation and collective packaging.

Without proper line integration, manufacturers often experience excessive manual handling, inconsistent packaging quality and reduced production efficiency.

In this project, Benison redesigned the entire packaging workflow for a leading adhesive tape manufacturer, integrating previously separated processes into one automated production line. The result improves packaging quality, production efficiency and future production flexibility.

Why Does Adhesive Tape Packaging Require Complete Line Planning?

Many manufacturers assume shrink packaging is the most important process. In reality, production efficiency is often determined by how well each process connects before and after shrinking.

After manufacturing, adhesive tapes are typically collected in bulk and require sorting before sleeving. Once individually packaged, products must be rearranged again before entering multipack packaging. Without automated transfer and handling between these stages, manufacturers face unnecessary labor, product accumulation and unstable production flow.

Benison focuses on complete packaging line integration, allowing every process to operate continuously and efficiently instead of optimizing only a single machine.

▍Packaging Challenges

This customer wanted an automated packaging line capable of meeting three primary objectives.

Automatic Product Feeding： Manual loading and product alignment had become a production bottleneck. An automatic feeding and separation system was required to improve feeding consistency while reducing labor.
Individual and Multipack Integration： After individual packaging, products previously required manual collection and rearrangement before entering 10-pack collective packaging. The customer wanted a continuous automated workflow.
Flexible Production： Multiple tape sizes are manufactured on the same production line. The equipment needed to support future product changes while minimizing additional investment.

▍Benison's Packaging Solution

Rather than recommending a single machine, Benison evaluated the entire packaging process and redesigned the workflow to ensure stable product positioning and continuous conveying throughout every stage of production.

This solution integrates the LG-150 (CE) Automatic Shrink Sleeve Applicator with the SSA-600 Sleeve-Type Sealer, together with automatic product feeding, separator paper placement, quality inspection and product reorientation. The complete line enables continuous production from individual shrink sleeve packaging to 10-pack multipack packaging on a single automated system.

How Are Adhesive Tapes Automatically Aligned?

After production, adhesive tapes are typically collected in bulk. Manual loading onto the conveyor requires continuous labor and can create inconsistent product flow, reducing packaging efficiency. Benison integrates an automatic tape separating and aligning system that organizes products and feeds them sequentially into the packaging line. This reduces manual loading while maintaining a stable and continuous production flow.

Why Use a Mold-Head Conveyor System?

Adhesive tape is a cylindrical product that requires uniform heat exposure during the shrinking process. With conventional conveying systems, fixed product positions may result in uneven shrinkage and inconsistent label appearance. Benison's customized Mold-Head conveyor allowing heat to be distributed evenly around the entire sleeve. This improves shrink quality, sleeve conformity and overall package appearance. Each solution is customized according to product specifications. Contact Benison for a professional evaluation of your packaging requirements.

Why Is Separator Paper Required?

Because the edges of adhesive tape remain sticky after production, direct contact between the adhesive surface and the shrink sleeve may affect package appearance and product usability. To prevent this, a separator paper is automatically inserted into the center of each tape roll before shrinking. A robotic handling system performs this process consistently while preserving package integrity and supporting stable downstream production.

How Are Defective Products Prevented from Entering Multipack Packaging?

High-speed automation is valuable only when packaging quality remains consistent. After separator paper insertion, an inspection system automatically verifies that each product meets the required conditions. Products that fail inspection are rejected before entering the multipack packaging process. Real-time inspection and automatic rejection reduce manual quality checks while preventing defective products from reaching the finished package.

How Is the Packaging Line Connected to Multipack Packaging?

After individual packaging, adhesive tapes must be reoriented before they can be grouped for collective packaging. Benison developed a customized flipping and alignment system that automatically arranges products into the required grouping before entering the SSA-600 Sleeve-Type Sealer. This reduces manual handling while ensuring stable and efficient multipack packaging.

By redesigning the complete production workflow, Benison successfully integrated product feeding, individual packaging, product alignment and multipack packaging into one fully automated production line.

Compared with conventional standalone operations, this integrated solution minimizes manual handling, improves production efficiency and maintains stable product flow throughout every packaging stage.

What Are the Advantages of This Packaging Line?

This solution is designed not only for individual tape packaging but also for complete production line integration. Automatic feeding, shrink sleeve application, separator paper placement, quality inspection, product reorientation and multipack packaging are seamlessly combined into a single automated system. The result is fewer manual operations, reduced product handling and improved production efficiency.

Every module is engineered according to the characteristics of adhesive tape, ensuring stable conveying, consistent shrink quality and reliable multipack packaging.

The production line also supports future expansion. By adjusting tooling and machine settings, manufacturers can package different tape sizes on the same system, maximizing equipment utilization while reducing future investment costs.

What Products Is This Solution Suitable For?

Although developed for adhesive tape packaging, this solution is also suitable for a wide range of industries, including

Industrial Adhesive Tape
Beverage Products
Pharmaceutical Products
Personal Care Products
Household Products

Each packaging line can be customized according to product dimensions, diameter, height and multipack configuration, providing the most suitable solution for individual packaging, shrink sleeving and collective packaging.

▍Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Can one production line handle both individual and multipack packaging? Yes. By integrating feeding, sleeving and collective packaging during the initial planning stage, manufacturers can reduce manual handling and significantly improve production efficiency.
Is separator paper always required? Not always. It depends on the adhesive characteristics of the product. For sticky tape edges, separator paper helps prevent contact between the adhesive and the shrink sleeve, protecting package quality.
Is this packaging line suitable for my products? Benison evaluates product dimensions, packaging requirements, production capacity and factory layout before recommending a customized packaging solution.
