Abstract: The present disclosure provides a handle having smoothened edges. The handle includes a body portion formed of an elongated piece of material having a pair of side edges defining a width of the body portion. The body portion includes a gripping region extended towards and/or between a first attachment region and/or a second attachment region. Further, each of the side edges of the gripping region has a cutting index lower than a cutting index of the remaining part of the gripping region such that the gripping region is soft and comfortable at the edges for a user to hold.

Abstract: A packaging system has a system for assembling a package, a method for assembling a package, and a machine for assembling a package. The packaging system comprises at least one main transportation unit (104) and at least one moveable closed loop transportation unit (102), where the at least one moveable closed loop transportation unit (102) moves three-dimensionally with respect to the at least one main transportation unit (104) for providing the packaging material components to the main transportation unit (104) and/or performing packaging process operations to a package in assembly present at the main transportation unit (104). The at least one moveable closed loop transportation unit (102) includes a number of tools mounted on independently motion-controlled movers for providing the packaging material components to the package in assembly and/or providing the packaging operations to the packaging in assembly. In addition, the present invention also provides systems, methods, and machines for assembly of any other article.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides an orienting assembly for orienting one or more beverage containers stored within a secondary package. The orienting assembly includes a base portion having a plurality of container regions and remaining non-container regions. The orienting assembly further a layer of a predetermined material, at least partially, coated onto one or more of the plurality of the container regions such that a coefficient of friction at the coated container region is higher compared to that of non-container regions.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a tear strip (100, 200) formed onto one or more wall panels (190) of a packaging blank (290) is provided. The tear strip includes one or more tear lines (110) configured onto at least one of the wall panels of the packaging blank and adapted to be cut there-through. Each of the one or more tear lines includes a first line of weakness (111) extending longitudinally between a proximal end towards a distal end and extends to a depth generally equal to an entire thickness of the packaging blank at the first line of weakness. The tear line further includes a second line of weakness (115) extending generally diagonally away from the first line of weakness in a direction away from a center of the tear strip and towards the distal end of the wall panel. The second line of weakness extends to a depth lesser than the entire thickness of the packaging blank. In operation, the tear strip may torn by pulling the one or more tear lines together such that a generally clean cut through a cross-section of the packaging blank is achieved at each of the first line of weakness and the second line of weakness.
