TANAX Product Lineup

In logistics sites, while automation is advancing, there are still many cases where the packaging process continues to rely on manual labor. As customer needs diversify, leading to fluctuations in shipping volumes and an increase in small-lot production of various items, the packaging process can become a bottleneck, halting the flow of logistics as a whole. TANAX's logistics automation solutions do not simply involve the introduction of machinery; instead, they design the entire packaging process from the perspective of "which processes to automate and where to retain human work." We promote the automation and reduction of labor in the packaging process tailored to the layout and operational realities of the site, supporting the establishment of sustainable logistics.

This is a length-variable automatic packaging machine that uses single-sided cardboard (rolled cardboard) or kraft paper, automatically adjusting the length to match the product size during packaging. By detecting the length of the inserted product and processing packaging, sealing, and labeling in a high-speed continuous manner, it achieves a significant reduction in material usage and workload compared to traditional packaging processes using cardboard boxes. Compared to "Fast Pack," it allows for the packaging of larger products. Leveraging the flexibility and certain cushioning properties of single-sided cardboard (rolled cardboard), this packaging machine can achieve efficiency, labor reduction, and environmental consideration in sites looking to simplify packaging.

This is a height-variable automatic sealing machine that automatically detects the height of the product and processes the height of the cardboard case for sealing. It automates the processes of measuring, cutting, scoring, folding, and sealing, achieving optimal packaging sizes. Furthermore, it can accommodate up to four types of lids. By switching the lid design on a case-by-case basis, it can cater to multiple shippers. This enhances the added value of packaging, improves the unboxing experience, strengthens brand recognition, and leads to more efficient communication and prevention of shipping errors.

This is a three-dimensional variable automatic packaging machine that automatically measures the three dimensions (length, width, height) of products and performs everything from processing cardboard cases optimized for product sizes to sealing and label application. Products placed on the conveyor have cases automatically generated based on size data, and the process consistently merges the product and case for sealing. It accommodates a wide range of product sizes from minimum to maximum, and can flexibly handle continuous processing of the same size as well as packaging operations where sizes change randomly. By automating the packaging process, it achieves increased efficiency, reduced labor, and optimized materials in packaging operations.

This is a three-dimensional variable automatic box-making machine that processes cardboard sheets to match product sizes and manufactures boxes of optimal sizes. It does not perform sealing but supplies the assembled boxes to packaging operators. By intentionally omitting the sealing process, it allows for flexible incorporation of tasks by operators, such as adding cushioning materials, including additional items, and combining multiple products. It can achieve a reduction in box inventory and standardization of packaging processes even in environments with a variety of small lots. While OPERA automates the sealing process, OPERETTA is positioned as a "box-making process" and is a highly compatible automatic box-making machine with other packaging processes.

"JIVARO PRINT" is an option for the "Height Adjustable Sealing Machine JIVARO" that allows for on-site printing on the lid when attaching it to the box. Thanks to the on-demand printer, high-precision printing can be done starting from just one case. Creating customized lids can also enhance branding. The excitement that builds from placing an order to the arrival of the product can be conveyed through packaging materials, promoting repeat purchases and word-of-mouth, thus serving as a promotional tool to enhance brand loyalty. 【Features】 ■ Promotion through JIVARO PRINT and Multi-lid ■ Labor-saving and efficiency improvements in packaging operations due to high productivity ■ Improved workability in palletizing and transportation loading efficiency, as well as reduced management costs through standardization of packaging box sizes ■ Reduction in transportation costs due to the reduction of height-adjustable sizes *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

This is a length-variable automatic packaging machine that uses single-sided cardboard (rolled cardboard) or kraft paper, automatically adjusting the length to match the product size during packaging. By detecting the length of the products being fed in and processing packaging, sealing, and labeling in a high-speed sequence, it enables a significant reduction in material usage and workload compared to traditional packaging processes using cardboard boxes. It is designed for high-speed processing and is suitable for large shipments of small items, particularly those centered around post-in sizes. Leveraging the flexibility and certain cushioning properties of single-sided cardboard (rolled cardboard), this packaging machine achieves efficiency, labor reduction, and environmental consideration in settings where simplified packaging is desired.

e-Wrap is an automatic packaging machine that uses craft laminate paper and plastic film. Despite its compact design, it demonstrates high production capacity. It measures the height, width, and length of the product size and accommodates variable size packaging according to the shape, contributing to labor reduction in the packaging process and standardization of operations. Additionally, its design, which assumes simple operation, allows for stable operation by a single operator. It supports increased productivity and uniform packaging quality in envelope packaging processes commonly used in e-commerce and mail-order shipping.

"THOUZER" is a robot for transporting goods. It realizes labor-saving in picking and transportation tasks in factories, logistics centers, and both indoor and outdoor environments. With high-precision, wide-angle laser sensors, it achieves a highly reliable automatic follow function. Additionally, it is equipped with a line tracing function that allows for unmanned transportation along reflective tape on the floor, as well as a memory trace function that enables the robot to memorize a desired route in advance and automatically follow that route. 【Features】 ■ Automatically follows people or carts ■ Unmanned transportation to destinations along a line ■ Automatically navigates by memorizing the surrounding environment *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

Among the processes that support logistics, packaging and packing are areas that are often overlooked. The challenges faced on-site, such as labor shortages, rising logistics costs, and the need for environmental considerations, are becoming increasingly complex each year, and many of these issues stem from the "packaging process." Since its founding in the Meiji era, TANAX has continuously engaged with the concept of "packaging." We view packaging and packing not merely as operational processes, but as crucial elements that support the quality, efficiency, and environmental responsiveness of logistics, and we propose improvements tailored to the specific needs of each site.

In the logistics field, there is a tendency for challenges in the packaging and packing processes to accumulate amidst the daily shipping operations. Do you have any of the following concerns? ▼ Insufficient manpower is causing packaging work to become a bottleneck - It is difficult to secure workers - During peak seasons, the work cannot keep up ▼ There is a lot of waste in packaging materials and box sizes - The boxes are too large for the products, resulting in unnecessary shipping costs - A large amount of cushioning material is used to fill gaps ▼ I want to focus on environmental considerations, but I don't know where to start - I want to review excessive packaging - There is increasing demand for reducing plastic and waste
