ORIENTATION & STAGING
Kraken’s Orientation & Staging solutions are designed to prepare products for what comes next—by controlling how they are positioned, stabilized, separated, and transferred between processes.

Introducing the groundbreaking “180 Degree Case Rotator” by Kraken Automation, specifically engineered to address the pressing need for labor-saving solutions in manufacturing environments. As demand for automation grows and escalating costs and challenges in securing skilled labor, automation becomes not only a requirement but a sought-after solution.
In many packaging lines, downstream performance depends on more than speed. Products need to arrive in the right orientation, the right spacing, and the right condition to be handled reliably by the next piece of equipment.
That is where Kraken brings value. Our systems are engineered to create predictable product presentation,
helping manufacturers reduce disruption, improve line stability, and support a more reliable downstream
packaging performance.
These are often small problems at the product level—but they have a major impact on line performance.
Kraken’s Orientation & Staging solutions are commonly applied to:
These solutions are especially valuable when products must be positioned, stabilized, separated, or transferred cleanly before downstream packaging.
Prepare products to enter the next stage of the line in the correct position and condition.
Kraken systems can be designed to:
Typical applications include cartons, flexible packages, clamshells, and other products that require controlled presentation downstream.
Keep products controlled and stable as they move through the line.
Kraken stabilization solutions help reduce shifting, tipping, or inconsistent movement—especially with lightweight, flexible, or difficult-to-handle bags and boxes, etc.
Separate products into a more controlled, manageable flow or lane.
Kraken singulation solutions help move products from grouped, random, or inconsistent spacing into a cleaner downstream presentation—separate, organized, single file, and orderly.
Typical applications include:
Move product cleanly between conveyors, machines, and line sections.
Kraken-controlled transfer solutions are designed to reduce disruption at critical handoff points where the product can otherwise become unstable, misaligned, or difficult to manage.
Typical applications include:
Redirect product flow while maintaining control and product integrity.
Kraken 90° transfer solutions are used where the product must change direction without compromising orientation, spacing, or downstream presentation.
Typical applications include:
Kraken does not approach flow management as a collection of conveyor functions. Every solution is engineered around how the full packaging line needs the product to arrive, move, and perform—including:
That system-level approach helps ensure products are not just moved but properly prepared for what comes next.
Orientation and Staging systems often work upstream from:
If product presentation, spacing, or transfer challenges are affecting performance, Kraken can help engineer a solution that brings more control to the line.
