The packaging process involves multiple steps, and the traditional manual packaging method is not only low in work efficiency, but also often causes problems such as missing or less packaging. The packaging site is relatively messy, and sometimes when boxing for sale, one large box will be matched with two or more different small boxes according to a specified ratio. In this case, it is more likely to make mistakes when using manual packaging. Therefore, an automatic boxing line is needed.
