Example aspects of bicycle packaging and a method of assembling bicycle packaging are disclosed. The method of assembling bicycle packaging can comprise providing a first packaging body, the first packaging body comprising a first side panel, a first top panel connected to the first side panel at a first bend line, and a primary tab extending from an outward edge of the first top panel distal to the first bend line; providing a second packaging body, the second packaging body comprising a second side panel, a second top panel connected to the second side panel at a second bend line, and a secondary tab connected to the second side panel; engaging the primary tab with a primary slot formed at the second bend line; and engaging the secondary tab with a secondary slot formed at the outward edge of the first top panel.

Example aspects of a bicycle packaging and a method for assembling a bicycle packaging are disclosed. The bicycle packaging can comprise a first packaging body comprising a primary fastener and a secondary mating fastener; and a second packaging body comprising a secondary fastener and a primary mating fastener, the first packaging body and second packaging body defining a void, the primary fastener engaging the primary mating fastener, and the secondary fastener engaging the secondary mating fastener.

Disclosed is a coil packaging system. The system comprises a first robot arm having a grappling portion adapted to grip a wrapping material, a second robot arm having a grappling portion adapted to grip the wrapping material, and a coil rotating means adapted to carry and rotate a coil about a coil axis. The first robot arm is movable along a first horizontal axis (A1) which, in an operating position, coincides with the coil axis, while the second robot arm is movable along a second horizontal axis (A2), the second horizontal axis (A2) being parallel to the first horizontal axis (A1), and along a third horizontal axis (A3), the third horizontal axis (A3) being perpendicular to the second horizontal axis (A2).

Example aspects of a method for using a bicycle packaging are disclosed. The method for using a bicycle packaging can comprise attaching a first packaging body to a second packaging body to define a void comprising an open end; inserting a bicycle into the void; abutting a first top panel of the first packaging body against a second top panel of the second packaging body to cover the open end; and engaging a primary fastener of the first top panel with a primary mating fastener of the second top panel.

A robot system and a method for packaging coils of sheet metal is provided. The method and robot system for coil packaging, having two industrial robots, each robot being provided with a robot arm provides for a solution where the direction of travel along the envelope surface of the coil is inclined relative the rotational axis of the coil, positioning of the roll of wrapping material in three-dimensional along the circumferential edge may be adjusted for each pass and/or where the positioning of the longitudinal axis of the roll or wrapping material is in an inclined angular direction relative the direction of rotation.

The apparatus and method for packaging coiled materials uses vacuum to draw the free end of a packaging sleeve through the open coil core, which may have a single line. A trolley lifts the coil to align its open core with a hollow mandrel, and passes the coil over the mandrel. The trolley is lowered to expose the coil circumference for packaging. Suction is applied through the mandrel to draw the free end of the sleeve through the coil core. Another apparatus includes two parallel input lines and a mandrel workstation translating therebetween and pivoting to transfer coils to an orthogonal output line. Another apparatus includes a stationary suction source having a flexible suction hose and suction canister extending therefrom. The canister is applied to the coil core to draw the free end of the sleeve therethrough.
