Palletizing and case packing that work from day one. No hiring. No retraining. No headaches. Just consistent output that’s smooth as chocolate.
Can automation keep up with the high-volume, seasonal spikes in candy production?
Absolutely. Formic’s robotic systems are built to handle surge-level demand — whether you’re ramping for Halloween, Valentine’s, or year-round fulfillment. Our palletizers and case packers are designed to run multiple shifts at consistent throughput with no fatigue, breaks, or absenteeism. And because we handle the scoping, support, and servicing, you won’t have to pull your internal team off critical tasks when volume peaks. Just turn the line up and let the robots work.
Will the robots work with our constantly changing SKUs and packaging types?
Formic systems are built for flexibility. Whether you’re switching from mini packs to share bags, single bars to multi-SKU variety packs, or changing box configurations — we’ve got you. Our equipment can be programmed for quick changeovers, and our Full Service Automation model lets you swap systems mid-contract if your needs grow or change. You get the performance you need today and the flexibility for tomorrow.
We run a wide variety of candy formats — will automation work for all of them?
Yes — Formic automation systems are designed to handle the full spectrum of candy SKUs, from pouches and pillow packs to blister trays, cartons, and wrapped bars. Whether you’re packing soft chews, hard candy, or coated pieces, we spec each system to your product’s shape, weight, and packaging type. Our end-of-arm tooling options and smart programming ensure gentle handling, tight pack-outs, and SKU-specific logic to minimize changeover time and keep your line moving — even with frequent product variation.
