About KRAUS Maschinenbau
KRAUS Maschinenbau GmbH has been developing and manufacturing high-precision feeding systems and complete solutions for the automated handling of flat products and packaging since 2008. The core business comprises singulating, dispensing, feeding and transporting products as well as marking and labeling them. The portfolio includes the friction feeder Joker, the resource-efficient variant JoKer Eco, the LabelJack labeling system with integrated control, pneumatic collecting stations, vacuum carpets, booklet feeders, a pick-and-place feeder for large-format products, and the packaging systems MoltoBrava and SmartPac. Beyond the standard products, the company implements custom special solutions, for example for erecting folding cartons, counting, inspecting, sorting out, positioning, embossing, printing, gluing, as well as sealing bags and shipping packaging. The systems are used, among other things, in the print and logistics industries, in warehouse and automotive automation, the pharmaceutical industry, and the hygiene and food sector. The company headquarters with manufacturing is located in Spaichingen; service, repair and maintenance services are also offered for third-party products.
