OMET: the ideal partner for integrated and efficient solutions

OMET is a recognized leader in the tissue converting machinery sector for the production of napkins, towels, and other folded or interfolded disposable products. It offers complete solutions from reel to pallet guaranteeing efficiency, quality and innovation.

Choosing a single supplier like OMET significantly simplifies the production process. With just one point of contact, companies can reduce coordination time and optimize supply chain management, resulting in a 20% reduction in handling time. This allows for faster response times to market demands, reducing operational costs and increasing business competitiveness.
OMET offers a comprehensive range of folding and packaging lines for tissue products that can be customized to meet specific customer needs. Designed to handle various types of materials and formats, these lines ensure maximum flexibility and efficiency, allowing for quick adaptation to changing market trends and consumer demands.

Thanks to its synergy with PRB Innovation, an Italian company fully owned by the OMET group and specialized in the production of end-of-line packaging machines, OMET has developed its own range of primary and secondary packaging solutions. These solutions are perfectly integrated with production lines, enabling the offer of complete lines that are even more efficient and automated, catering to the various needs of the tissue market.
Through OMET’s technical consulting services, all lines – from the reel to the finished and packaged product – are connected via modular belt systems and/or conveyors, accessories like diverters and/or combiners, scales, and potential operator passages that ensure a continuous, uninterrupted flow, increasing productivity and minimizing downtime.

HC-200 Cartoner
The HC-200 cartoner is an automatic, continuous-motion machine that combines servo technology with an open-frame design. This machine can be fully adapted to meet any requirements, whether for towels or paper napkins, using a wide range of formats from cube to rectangular. It is therefore a flexible machine that allows for quick format changes to meet the specific requests of each customer. With the option of an automatic loading magazine, the machine ensures maximum operational efficiency, as the ease of loading -complete with level control displayed on the screen and equipped with a pre-alarm signal – enables the operator to easily and intuitively manage it.

This machine has been developed to handle future-oriented and increasingly sustainable packaging, with reduced maintenance and service costs ensuring savings in product management.

SL-15 and F30 Case Packers
Compact and fully automated, the SL-15 case packer guarantees maximum reliability and is capable of handling large American-style cartons. Available in a wide range of formats, it is easily adjustable to change product types and box sizes. To further reduce costs and waste, with an even more eco-friendly approach, the SL-15 can be adapted to bypass primary packaging, allowing for direct boxing of loose products from the upstream folding machine.
In addition to the SL-15, OMET also offers the F30 model, a vertically-loaded, fully servo-assisted case packer with numerous feeding options, designed to meet specific market needs. Compact, reliable, and flexible, the F30 case packer fully accommodates facial tissue products in all possible orientations within the carton, with the ability to work from American cartons to display boxes.

P100 Cartesian Palletizer
The P100 is a Cartesian palletizer that stands out for its compactness and modularity. This machine, ranging from the simplest manual loading and unloading configuration to the more automated one with automatic pallet filling and slip sheet application, performs automatic palletizing of cartons coming in continuous cycles from the upstream machine onto wooden pallets. Through OMET’s technical consultancy, the correct gripping configuration, such as mechanical clamps and/or suction cups for handling and transporting the cartons, can be identified. The machine is capable of handling everything from half-pallets up to a height of 2,900mm, with the option of stacking two half-pallets to create a full pallet. This reflects OMET’s true turnkey supply, which also allows for the integration of an automatic wrapping machine with a rotating table or rotating arm.

The development and optimization of the machines that make up the line are part of an integrated process where OMET leverages the specific know-how of each sector, from converting to packaging to handling.
In lines that integrate different processing stations, the interfaces between units are typically the critical points that reduce the productivity of the entire system. With this in mind, OMET does not only offer the supply of a single package of machines but rather a complete system with a high degree of efficiency.
