Shelf-ready cardboard packaging from the specialist
SOMIC stands for versatile and individual packaging solutions. We develop packaging concepts and packaging machines that enable you to safely transport and present your products for sale in optimal outer packaging made of cardboard.
On the Direct Line to all types of carton - The SOMIC 434 offers you many advantages:
- Outstanding modular flexibility
Functional units individually adapted to your desired format ranges allow a customized, future-proof design of your packaging machine.
- Superior ergonomics and optimal use of space
Machine-high safety doors with a 180° opening allow full use of the aisle space around the machine. In addition, the new frame design ensures ideal ergonomic conditions for format adjustment, cleaning and maintenance.
- Highly efficient format changeovers
A maximum degree of automation and improved accessibility in all areas of the machine enable up to 70% faster format changeovers.

The right collecting and grouping system for your products
Product grouping with the SOMIC 434 - traditional mechanical or revolutionary floating
The SOMIC 434 can reliably and efficiently pack any product into individual cartons. Choose between two technologies for picking up, repositioning and grouping your products based on your specific packaging needs:
The SOMIC Lamella Chain for Proven High Performance
Our lamella chain reliably and highly efficiently ensures the pick-up, reorientation and grouping of your products before cartoning. As a high-performance solution, the module is the first choice for very large quantities and products with higher weights.
Thanks to flexible drive concepts, the lamella chain can be perfectly adapted to the geometry and performance requirements of your individual packaging task. Its tool-less format changeover system allows you to switch between upright and horizontal grouping tasks in a matter of minutes. The robust design of the components ensures an incomparable longevity of the system through maximum stability.
SOMIC CORAS - GROUNDBREAKING through planar technology
SOMIC CORAS (Carrier-based Orientation Rotation Arrangement System) is a new, revolutionary product handling or collecting and grouping system that uses multi-dimensionally controllable magnetic levitation technology to give you almost unlimited options for mixing, sorting and grouping your products.
