What does ‘limitless automation’ mean for you?
Limitless automation means not backing down from a challenge, and being able to provide creative solutions that have never been done before.

Mpac Langen thinks unconventionally through our custom designed machines. Each project comes with its own unique product and requirements, and Mpac looks forward to the challenge of creating new ways to implement these requirements into our standard machines.
What emerging trends in automation are you excited about?
I’m excited to see what comes next! I think packaging machines will have the ability to handle more complicated products with increased speeds. And I think the industry will be incorporating many different types of robots, with unique end of arm tooling for packaging. I’m looking forward to seeing where that will take us in the future.
Anything else you’d like to add?
Mpac Langen is where I started my engineering career and I wouldn’t have it any other way! Through my kind and helpful colleagues, the endless new opportunities and experiences, and the ability to grow and learn, not only as a designer but also as a person, I am, and will be forever grateful.
