The case packing
QUICK START checklist.
Case packing is repetitive, error-prone, and hard on your team. It’s also one of the easiest jobs to automate, if you know what to plan for.
This checklist covers the 10 things worth figuring out before you automate a case packing line, from product specs to how it connects to the rest of your line.
- Simple, practical, no automation background needed
- Print it, fill it in, keep it for reference
- Nothing to sign up for

- 04Your next step: everything an engineer needs to quote a cell and a monthly rate.

Questions, answered.
Do I have to talk to sales to get the checklist?
No. Fill out the form and the download starts immediately. We’ll also email you a copy. No call required.
Why does Formic need this information?
These are the exact inputs an engineer asks for to scope a case packer: product range, throughput, case and packaging types, footprint, and downstream connections. Gathering them up front turns a discovery call into a head start.
What if I don’t know an answer yet?
Fill in what you can. A partial checklist is still useful, and your engineer can help fill the gaps. The more you complete, the faster the quote.
What does a case packing cell cost?
There’s no CapEx and no separate maintenance contract. You pay one flat monthly rate. The exact rate depends on your products, cases, and throughput, which is what this checklist captures.
How fast can we be running?
Typically weeks, not months. After a short scoping conversation we return a spec, lead time, and monthly rate, then build and commission the cell around the line you already run.
