Corona still makes things you'd recognize, even if the citrus groves that once made this California city the Lemon Capital of the World are long gone. Beverage cans roll off a line for a global energy-drink and beverage manufacturer that ranks among the city's top five employers with 1,075 workers, and a musical-instrument manufacturer operates a production plant here employing 955 more. Two more fresh-produce and food-processing operations, with 527 and 450 employees, round out Corona's top-ten employer list. Cans, produce cartons, and instrument cases moving off these lines all point to the same need: dependable packaging automation that keeps pace with production.
Beverages, produce, food processing, light manufacturing. That's exactly PLAN IT's profile. Canned and bottled beverage lines need automatic case packers and erectors that keep pace with high-speed fill lines, plus PackMaster cobot palletizers that stack and wrap outbound pallets without adding headcount. Fresh-produce and food-processing operations get more use out of checkweighers that catch a fill error before a case ever leaves the dock. A Mars Series VFFS bagger can run bagged produce, and a case-packing line can run aluminum cans just as easily. You know your cans, produce, and instrument cases inside and out; we design and integrate the equipment that packages all three. Our food and beverage packaging solutions and full range of solutions cover whichever line a Corona plant is running, cans, produce, or instrument cases.
