Process Integration, Inc. provides complete automation and system integration solutions for packaging lines, conveyors, weighing, labeling, coding, controls, robotics, and data collection — from concept and engineering through installation and support.
Station by station
Process Integration, Inc. specializes in designing and integrating complete automated packaging line systems. We combine conveyors, weighing and labeling equipment, coding and marking systems, automation controls, robotics, and data reporting into streamlined solutions for both existing and newly designed packaging lines.
Station 01: Case erecting, packing, and pick-and-place
High-speed delta robots from Kawasaki and ABB pick product straight off a moving belt and place it into trays, cartons, and thermoformers.
Our robotic solutions support packing and palletizing applications, helping manufacturers improve throughput, consistency, and labor efficiency.
Station 02: Custom conveyors, designed and built here
Our conveyor systems are designed to move, position, and transfer products efficiently through your automation process.
We design and build custom conveyor systems, and partner with Hytrol and Intralox to deliver conveyor and belting solutions from concept through installation and support.
Station 03: Static and in-motion scales
Rice Lake checkweighers, floor scales, bench scales, and indicators, plus our own in-motion and semi-automatic weighing systems.
In-Motion Scales provide accurate weight measurement while products remain in motion, eliminating production slowdowns.
Station 04: Print-and-apply labeling
Print-and-apply label applicators for cartons, cases, and packages — from standalone units to systems integrated into automated production lines.
Our systems support a wide range of labeling applications, including top, bottom, side, wraparound, and multi-panel labeling for beverage, consumer goods, industrial, and packaging environments.
Station 05: Coding, marking, and printing
Date coding, batch coding, expiration coding, and other variable data marking — on industrial printers and print engines from Zebra and Squid Ink.
We provide repair and parts support for the full line of Zebra printers and print engines and maintain inventory investments in excess of $1,000,000.
Station 06: Barcode, vision, and RFID
Barcode and vision scanning from Zebra and IFM, and RFID portal, fixed, overhead, and handheld readers for identification, tracking, and traceability.
From inventory management and asset tracking to work-in-process monitoring, RFID technology enables fast, contactless data capture without requiring direct line-of-sight.
Station 07: End-of-line robotics
Palletizing robot solutions using trusted robotic systems from leading manufacturers including Kawasaki, ABB, and Standard Bots.
As a Kawasaki Robotics Preferred Partner, we specify, install, program, and support these robots ourselves — integrated with the conveyors, scanners, labelers, and scales already running your line.
Station 08: Autonomous mobile robots
Autonomous mobile robot solutions using OTTO Motors and ABB AMRs for manufacturing facilities, warehouses, and distribution centers.
Our autonomous mobile robot solutions, also known as AMRs, help businesses move materials, products, and supplies more efficiently throughout their facilities.
Under the line
The stations are the part you can see. Underneath every one is the layer that makes them a system: the controls, the panels they are built into, the computers operators run them from, and the software that reports on all of it.
Layer A: PLCs, networks, and safety
Our automation and controls capabilities include PLC design, plant network connectivity, safety sensors, scanning systems, machine guarding, and equipment monitoring.
We work with leading technology partners to deliver reliable, safe, and efficient systems built for demanding manufacturing environments.

Layer B: Panel shop
Shorite Controls has been designing and building industrial control panels since 1985, and joined Process Integration, Inc. in January 2024. It works from a 30,000 square‑foot facility in Princess Anne, Maryland — the same address as the rest of the company.
It is a UL 508A and UL 698A listed panel shop, covering motion control, PLCs, HMIs, and SCADA. The panels behind a Process Integration, Inc. line are built by the same company that designs and integrates the line.
Layer C: Operator stations
Reliable Industrial Computing.Designed for Washdown Performance
All Softouch industrial computers are designed to meet NEMA 4X environmental enclosure standards for washdown and industrial exposure.
Resistive touchscreens allow operators to use the system while wearing PPE or working in wet production environments.
The Flex opens up, so the PC inside can be swapped for a different one. Hover or tap to look inside.
Softouch systems include IP-69 USB, ethernet, and serial port options, with customizable configurations to meet specific plant and equipment needs.
Built-in UPS battery backup and automatic controlled shutdown help protect data integrity during power loss or low-power conditions.
Industrial motherboards, Intel® Core™ processors, SSD storage, DDR4 RAM, Wi-Fi, and Windows 11 IoT options support dependable system performance.
Layer D: Software, HMIs, and reporting
Process Integration, Inc. provides custom-built software applications designed around each business’s specific workflows, rules, and operational needs.
Our software is built using modern technologies such as .NET and SQL Server, allowing applications to connect with a wide range of platforms, devices, and industrial equipment.
Every system we build is designed around a specific customer’s operation, whether that is weighing, labeling, yard management, or order management.
How a project runs
First, we come out, see how your line runs, and figure out what you're trying to fix.
Then we tell you what we'd do about it, based on your line and what you need it to do.
Next, we lay the whole line out in SolidWorks.
You can see how it fits your floor, how product moves through it, and what each machine can reach, all before anything gets ordered.
We build a lot of the equipment ourselves: custom conveyors, static and in-motion scales, stainless steel printer applicators, and whatever else the job calls for.
It's made for food plants, ready-to-eat areas included.
A lot of our work is adding to lines that are already running, or connecting the equipment you already have so you can see what it's actually doing.
We build brand-new lines too.
We don't disappear once the line is running. You can call us 24/7, and our technicians come out for scheduled visits, preventive maintenance, and urgent repairs.
We keep plenty of parts on the shelf, so a lot of what you need can ship right away.
You deal with the same people the whole way through.
