Traditionally, machines for the packaging industry have been hydraulic. However, industrialists have realized that migrating to the use of electric machinery brings benefits in terms of lower energy consumption, maintenance and increased production. "Having recent generation machines increases production capacity because the previous machines were slower and were in maintenance for longer periods of time. Having new machines helps minimize maintenance costs by 50%, increases production time and, therefore, production capacity by 20%," said Luis Carvajal, Engineering Manager of Nypro Kanaak, a
