Labelling, inspection and handling systems
Whatever your products’ size and shape and industry-specific features, we provide you with a cost-effective and material-efficient process solution that can be completely automated.
Feeding and handling systems
Our solutions ensure fully automated packaging processes and a smooth material flow. High-precision robots handle even the smallest parts in a hygienic way, without any mechanical impact
Control and inspection systems
They are an important addition to packaging machines’ automation technology: Perfectly coordinated control systems guarantee constant quality control during the ongoing process. You benefit from maximum process reliability.
Final packaging by the specialists
To ensure that the goods reach the customer undamaged, we offer a variety of end packaging solutions to ensure that your products are packaged securely and efficiently.
After-Sales-Service
For us, service does not stop once the machine is installed on your company’s premises. Our service team looks after your machine throughout the entire lifecycle, providing maintenance, procuring spare parts, and much more besides.

When it comes to high standards in food safety and product liability, a hygienic design plays a vital role. Machines, systems and components must be designed and built to the highest hygienic standards – especially when packaging food products. Karl Knauer works according to design principles that minimise structural bottlenecks for hygiene-related hazards. Materials, surfaces and design-related features always have excellent cleaning properties.
Maximum flexibility, dynamism and safety in the material and production flow: Modern packaging machines have to tackle the increasing variety of customised and personalised packaging. The Karl Knauer modular system for the packaging industry shortens the time to market and increases system availability – while delivering low complexity and efficient engineering at the same time.
Expert advice right from the start: This much is true right from the machine selection and design stage, to delivery and beyond. Our service team supports you throughout the entire machine lifecycle as part of our aftersales service, offering you maximum expertise and service with regard to operating the packaging machines. You benefit from our service team’s short response times and maximum flexibility. We offer you a guarantee and post-guarantee service throughout the whole of Germany. Scheduled maintenance extends the system’s service life and reduces expensive machine downtimes.
