Products
Conveyor Systems — Modular conveyor systems
Machinery
Meurer conveyor systems transport individual products and combined packs between packaging operations. Modular units can turn, tilt, rotate, divide and combine product streams. Routing is adapted to line requirements, while intelligent control supports uniform loading and jam-free flow. Gentle handling, modular on-site installation and lift-out chains support integration, cleaning and maintenance.

CSP — Carton sleeve packer
Machinery
The CSP combines products into multipacks wrapped in sleeves made from kraft paper, paperboard or cardboard. It supports one- to three-row pack arrangements and fast changes using quick-fastened format parts. Meurer publishes output up to 160 bundles per minute, processing of 28,000 packs per hour, and machine efficiency up to 98%. The modular stainless-steel machine is suitable for wet cleaning and offers Siemens, Rockwell or Schneider automation.

HBP — Horizontal bundle packer with paper tape
Machinery
The HBP groups individual products into multipacks secured with printable, recyclable paper tape. Meurer specifies output up to 160 bundles per minute. The system minimizes packaging material and supports different infeed layouts, with quick fasteners on format parts for rapid changes. Rockwell and Schneider automation options are available. The manufacturer claims energy savings up to 90% compared with its HHS system; this comparison is specific to that reference.

HSP — Horizontal product buffer
Machinery
The HSP horizontal buffer temporarily stores products when downstream end-of-line equipment stops, helping avoid interruption of upstream production. Meurer specifies storage times from 3 to 15 minutes and machine efficiency up to 99%. It operates on a first-in, first-out principle with pressure-free accumulation to protect products. The open horizontal design supports access, cleaning and maintenance; size depends on required storage time and available floor space.
