Mid-Speed Chub Packaging: The KartridgPak CH-70

R.A Jones Unveils Next Generation of Mid-Speed Chub Packaging: The KartridgPak CH-70

R.A Jones continues to lead the way in packaging innovation with the CH-70 machine, a mid-speed, servo-driven chub machine designed for lower volume production environments. Building on the legacy of the KartridgPak brand, this machine offers flexibility, reliability, and affordability—an ideal solution for companies transitioning from manual clipping operations to automated processes. 

Proven Technology, Modern Efficiency 

With over 70 years of expertise in chub packaging and over 1,000 machines shipped globally since the 1950s, R.A Jones has a proven track record of delivering durable, high-performance solutions. The CH-70 is the latest addition to this portfolio, providing a valuable option for companies seeking to balance cost and automation. 

Key features of the CH-70: 

  • Mid-speed performance: capable of running up to 70 chubs per minute, the CH-70 is ideal for operations that don’t require the full speed of larger machines like the CH-150 or CH-160. 
  • Versatile packaging options: the CH-70 can accommodate various package sizes and product types, including both slicks and 1lb chubs. 
  • Direct drive servo: this feature ensures longevity and easy maintenance, enhancing overall operational efficiency. 
  • Quick changeover times: optimized for speed and flexibility, the CH-70 reduces downtime between product runs. 
  • Optimate HMI: intuitive controls that simplify operation and enhance the user experience. 

Addressing Market Needs 

The development of the CH-70 is a direct response to customer demand for a machine that provides the right balance of speed and cost-efficiency. Many companies face increasing labor and employment challenges, making the shift from manual clipping to automation more essential than ever. The CH-70 offers a cost-effective solution for those looking to automate without the need for the high speeds of larger machines. 

Flexible Supplier Choices and Cost Reduction 

Unlike some competitors that bundle consumables with their machines, R.A Jones allows customers the freedom to choose their wire and film suppliers, helping to reduce the total cost of ownership. By using flat plastic film rather than natural casings, the CH-70 delivers up to 30% savings compared to traditional tray packaging. Additionally, the wire spool clips used by R.A Jones are up to four times less expensive than preformed clips, offering further savings on consumables. 

The Right Choice for Lower-Volume Operations 

The CH-70 is particularly well-suited for companies with lower volume production requirements, or those utilizing co-packers for smaller batches. With a small footprint, it provides a high level of efficiency while minimizing the space needed in production facilities. Whether you're producing food or industrial products, the CH-70 ensures your operations remain agile and cost-effective. 

Key benefits at a glance: 

  • Proven technology with a longstanding history of reliability 
  • Cost-effective automation with rapid return on investment 
  • Flexible production capabilities to handle various product types and sizes 
  • Lower consumables costs offering significant savings over time
  • Reliable film registration improves package appearance 

For companies looking to future-proof their operations, the CH-70 is an ideal solution. It bridges the gap between manual operations and fully automated systems, providing lasting value and flexibility without sacrificing performance. 

The CH-70 machine embodies R.A Jones' commitment to delivering innovative, reliable packaging solutions that meet the evolving needs of the industry.
