The Leading ERP Provider for the Corrugated Packaging Industry

Innovation & Integration Powering the Independent Packaging Industry

Since 1981, Amtech has consistently delivered innovative technology solutions for the corrugated and packaging industries. Amtech’s fully integrated family of software helps packaging manufacturers achieve operational excellence and improved bottom-line results throughout their entire business.

Strengthening Commitment to Packaging

This year, Amtech has reinforced its commitment to the packaging sector by acquiring Label Traxx, the leading MES/ERP solution for labels and flexible packaging. Furthermore, it has enhanced its support for the folding carton industry by integrating Label Traxx’s Batched Scheduling solution with our EnCore ERP system, which already provides in-depth functionality for folding carton manufacturers.

New Solutions and Technology Investments

This year, Amtech introduced the latest version of its converting scheduling tool, the Advanced Planning Board. Featuring a beautifully updated user experience, planners can now access workflow management more quickly and gain enhanced visibility of the schedule across departments such as customer service. Additionally, new KPIs keep planners informed about machine capacity and the adoption of automation within the planning team.

Amtech is committed to innovation, aiming to transform how users interact with ERP systems. As part of this effort, Amtech launched the first component of its Informer suite, Informer Events. Instead of relying on daily reports to monitor the status of critical business events, Informer Events can alert users via text, email, or in-app notifications. These events are user-configurable and can be subscribed to individually, empowering users with personalized alerts. The Informer suite will introduce new AI-driven ways to work with ERP information in the coming year.

Tried and True Solutions for Packaging

Amtech’s EnCore ERP solution offers the packaging industry a comprehensive system equipped with powerful features and tools designed to streamline operations, anticipate business needs, inform intelligent decision-making, enhance customer relationships, improve bottom-line performance, and elevate enterprise value. Additionally, Amtech’s Axiom suite provides sheet feeders with order visibility, control over roll stock, and optimized corrugator trimming for maximum efficiency and minimal waste.

Amtech’s Smart Factory Solutions have eliminated the need to interface to separate systems for scheduling your corrugator or converting operations, and actual production is captured directly from your machines.

If you operate a corrugator, Amtech’s Solutions Corrugator Scheduling, which is central to the Axiom Sheet Feeder suite, is fully integrated with Amtech’s EnCore ERP.
For converting equipment, Amtech’s Advanced Planning Board fully automates the converting scheduling process by leveraging a unique, points-based algorithm that continually updates the schedule. No interfaces means that the data used for scheduling is always the most up to date available.
ScoreKeeper, Amtech’s machine-agnostic production reporting solution, provides real-time information while minimizing data entry by operators. Accurate setup times and run speeds continuously update the converting schedule, allowing box plant users to monitor the live status of machines and jobs on displays positioned above machine centers or in other areas such as customer service, planning, and maintenance. A unique shift timeline records a chronological diary of the current shift, with the ability to reference previous shifts for insights. All displays are accessible on manager desktops or tablets, with a mobile application slated for release by the end of the year.

With complete integration and real-time information across the enterprise, accuracy is improved. Your entire operation can plan effectively and communicate the right information to your customers, ensuring timely delivery of high-quality products. Amtech offers its customers a one-stop shop for comprehensive technology services and support, including hosting solutions.
