🏭 Scaling Packaging Production? Here's How DynamicRep® Helps

Written by Jeff Weseloh | Jul 15, 2025 3:50:54 PM

You're not building one-off automation cells—you’re building packaging and sealing machines for production lines, churning out thousands of units per shift. In this environment, speed, precision, modular scalability, and consistent quality aren't optional—they're mandatory.

That’s why high-end OEMs choose Dynamic to go beyond screws and sensors. We bring subsystem expertise that lives in the details you won’t find in a catalog—but can’t live without.

 

  Mass Production Challenges—And How We Solve Them

 

Consistent Heat & Sealing Control

Sealing jaws, shrink tunnels, and tray wrappers demand millisecond-level temperature control and repeatable performance under heavy duty cycles:

  • Celduc celpac® / okpac® SSRs: Deliver large load switching (50–125 A), integrated diagnostics, and board-level footprints. You won’t find this level of performance by reading data sheets online or in a catalog.

Why it matters: Precise, reliable heat control = consistent seals and fewer QA rejects at scale.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Modular Motion Control & I/O Expansion

As you scale models and SKUs, your control panel must stay nimble:

  • Phase-angle controllers + DC SSRs: For conveyor motors, vibratory feeders, and actuator groups.

  • DIN-rail PLCs, remote I/O, safety relays: Snap-in modules that let you build once, scale fast.

 

Why it matters: Modular control architecture slashes design time and streamlines BOMs across product lines.

 

 

 

Industrial Networking in Compact Control Cabinets

High-volume OEM panels often pack more electronics into smaller enclosures:

  • Brainboxes PE‑515/PE‑415 Embedded Gigabit Switches: Board-level switches that save space yet provide full PoE backend and deterministic networking .

  • Managed gigabit Ethernet with fiber-PoE options: Connect HMIs, safety scanning, motion controllers, cameras—without sprawling cable trays.

Why it matters: Compact networking keeps panel layouts clean and supports remote diagnostics at scale.

 

 

Power & Line-Side Protection That Scales

Qualification-ready machine builders require components that support high uptime:

  • DIN-rail power supplies with wide-temperature ratings and high surge tolerance

  • Electronic breakers & surge protection tailored to protect large inductive loads

Why it matters: Hands-free remote resets reduce line downtime and maintenance visits.

 

 

Standards-Based Panel Architecture

 

When you’re building dozens of identical machines, design clarity and field service matter:

 

 

  • Terminal blocks, cable glands, and labeling: Maintain standardized wiring blocks across lots.

  • EMC-rated connectors and grounding bars: Prevent shorts, false halts, and inspection failures.

 

Why it matters: Better assembly quality, faster commissioning, and fewer service rollouts.

 

 

 

 

The Hidden Value — When you work with Dynamic

Behind-the-Scenes Problem How Dynamic Helps
Sealing consistency issues not solvable by reading a catalog Guidance on SSR selection + board-level integration & proper heat sink
Network bottlenecks in dense control cabinets Embedded PoE/Ethernet hardware with space-optimized footprints
OEMs locked into underpowered PLC-I/O for optional features Modular I/O + controller alignments optimized by application
Multiple suppliers, no holistic layout support Single-repo design collaboration across power, control, networking
OEMs discovering design flaws once panels are built Early-stage layout reviews, EMC wiring best practices

🔧 Real‑Line Use Case: Tray Sealer OEM

A tray sealing line producing thousands of meals per shift needs:

  1. SSRs w/ integrated temp sensors to control seal bar heaters—consistent 200 °C at 30 Hz, plus fault diagnostics

  2. Phase-angle units + DC SSRs to operate conveyors and cooling fans

  3. Embeded ethernet switch + managed PoE to power inlet sensors, cameras, field HMIs, and safety scanner arrays

  4. DIN-rail power supplys, breakers, and EMI mitigation for sophisticated high speed machines

  5. Terminal blocks + labeling for service technicians working shift changes

Result: A machine ready for volume, with smart diagnostics, remote serviceability, and panel-repeatability that stands up to line workers and uptime requirements.

🌟 Why Packaging OEMs Work With Us

  • We don’t sell — we help design a best fit solution: Dynamic complements your engineer team with control hardware and best-practices insight.

  • We’re multi-brand agnostic: choose the right SSR, switch, controller—no filtering by brand.

  • We bring regional support for troubleshooting and commissioning: getting a product out the door is easy, having it work is what counts. We deliver a smart panel ecosystem: networking, protection, motion, and heat—designed to work together.
