An integrated packaging and conveyor line running across a plant floor
Industries

Built for floors that can't stop.

A bakery oven, a pharma clean room, and a fulfillment center don't run on the same rules. We engineer conveyors and integrated lines around the realities of your industry (sanitation, throughput, and uptime) so the equipment fits the floor instead of fighting it.

01 Where We Work

Where our experience
runs deep.

Thirty-plus years of building under one roof means we've already met your constraints (washdown, allergen changeovers, case throughput, peak-season surges) on someone else's line.

Every industry below has a different definition of "running well." Food and bakery live and die by sanitation and changeover time. Pharma needs traceability and validated controls. Fulfillment needs to absorb peak volume without falling over. We start from those constraints, then design the conveyors, equipment, and UL 508A controls to match, and our crew installs and supports what we build.

02 Six Industries

Who we build for.

Different products, different rules. Each gets a line engineered to its environment, not a catalog layout.

01Pack-off stations on a food and beverage packaging line

Food & Beverage

Washdown stainless frames, drainable designs, and pack-off stations built for daily washdown and frequent allergen changeovers.

02An ARYZTA bakery production and pack-off line built by STI

Bakery

Denesting, settling, and palletizing tied to one control system to keep high-volume bakery lines moving through peak runs.

03Inside a System Technology control panel: PLC, power supply, safety relays and labeled wiring

Pharmaceutical

Validated UL 508A controls, clean-room-friendly stainless builds, and traceable handling for product where every unit is accounted for.

04Modular plastic belt conveyor for a consumer goods line

Consumer Goods

Modular belt and roller transport for cartons, blisters, and pouches, with accumulation that keeps fast-moving SKUs flowing without back pressure.

05Case indexer and case-handling section on a packaging line

Packaging

Case indexers, pushers, stops, and merging systems that meter and stage product into case packers and palletizers at line speed.

06A collaborative robot tending a fulfillment conveyor

E-Commerce & Fulfillment

Powered roller, zone accumulation, and robotic pick and place built to absorb peak-season volume without choking the line.

03 Across Every Line

What every line
gets from us.

The industry changes. The way we work doesn't: one accountable team that engineers, builds, wires, installs, and supports the whole system.

  • Wash down builds, including 304 stainless steel construction.
  • UL 508A, cUL, and CE control panels, wired and programmed in our own shop.
  • Safety guarding and emergency stops engineered into the line.
  • One accountable team from concept through startup, no hand-offs, no finger-pointing.
  • Installation, start-up, and continued support from the people who built it.
  • Retrofits that field-measure and drop into your existing line and footprint.
