Signode to demonstrate connected pallet automation at PACK EXPO 2026

Signode says its PACK EXPO demonstrations will link pallet wrapping and strapping with an AMR forklift and automated storage, alongside a collaborative robotic palletizing line.
On 1 October 2026, Signode announced demonstrations for PACK EXPO International, scheduled for 18–21 October in Chicago. The company says one setup will integrate an Octopus Prestige automatic stretch wrapper with a TP-12 strapping machine and show an autonomous mobile robot forklift moving pallets in coordination with its StorFast automated storage and retrieval system. A separate demonstration will combine a collaborative robotic palletizer with case-opening, sealing and conveyor equipment. These are planned trade-show demonstrations; Signode did not announce a customer deployment or measured performance results.
