Story
Kinpak’s Alabama facility is the engine behind Star brite®, producing innovative, high-quality products for marine, power sports, and outdoor markets around the globe. For decades, the team relied on a Premier Tech palletizer that stood up to constant use, even running 25% above its rated speed. But as production requirements skyrocketed and manufacturing windows tightened, the need for an upgrade became clear.
After considering their options, Kinpak chose to stay with Premier Tech for a simple reason: no other solution matched the robustness and reliability they required. The new CHRONOS APH-5360 palletizer brought immediate advantages. Operators found it easy to use and quick to learn thanks to intuitive feedback and minimal adjustments needed during runs. Speed goals were met and are now scalable for future growth.
Efficiency surged, with Kinpak seeing an immediate 11% boost in production volume and a 10% reduction in labor costs, helping lower unit prices and pass savings to customers. Machine safety reached new heights with light curtains and comprehensive protection that weren’t available before. Changeovers between pallet sizes became seamless. Employees now simply watch the machine run, making jobs easier, safer, and more satisfying.
Premier Tech’s local office ensures immediate, responsive after-sales support and a fluid process from day one. For Kinpak, it’s more than a machine, it’s a lasting partnership built on decades of trust, performance, and shared values.
