Sitma, a packaging and sortation solutions company, has introduced PackHub, a compact Automated Bagging System designed to streamline the order fulfillment process. PackHub automates key steps of the bagging process, including bag feeding, orientation, and labeling, helping operators work more efficiently while maintaining a simple and intuitive workflow.

Why it matters

As e-commerce and fulfillment environments continue to grow, companies are looking for ways to increase productivity and throughput without completely overhauling their existing workflows. PackHub offers a practical automation step, helping businesses scale their operations by reducing packaging time by up to 50% per order.

The details

At the core of PackHub is a high-capacity hopper holding up to 500 bags, enabling continuous production with a large buffer capacity. Bags are singulated through a precision friction feeder and automatically rotated into the optimal position for ergonomic product insertion. A vacuum cup holding station stabilizes the bag during packing, while an integrated labeling unit prints and applies labels directly to the envelope. PackHub's compact footprint and wheeled frame make it easy to integrate into existing facilities and reposition within the production environment.

  • PackHub will be showcased at LogiMAT 2026 in Stuttgart, Germany from March 24-26.
  • PackHub will also be presented at MODEX 2026 in Atlanta, Georgia from April 13-16.
