Packing benches for assembly areas and kitting cells

In many factories the line between assembling a product and packing it is a short one. Kits are built, components are counted into bags, sub-assemblies are boxed for the next stage, and finished items are packed straight from the assembly cell. A bench that handles both jobs well saves floor space and handling time.

Spaceguard designs assembly and packing benches for manufacturers of all sizes in our Hull factory. Benches are built around the parts, tools and packaging each operator needs, so the worktop stays clear and every item has a fixed place. They sit within our range of manufacturing and production packing benches, alongside benches for end of line packing.

Assembly areas often call for heavier frames and more tooling than a typical packing table. Our heavy duty workbenches carry a 1000kg UDL and extra heavy duty builds go up to 5000kg UDL, so the bench can take fixtures, jigs and heavier components. For electronic assembly, ESD workbenches provide the static control you need.

Combining assembly and packing on one bench also cuts the number of times a finished item is handled. Instead of moving completed assemblies to a separate packing area, operators can pack each one as it is finished, which reduces damage and makes it easier to count output against the plan.

Building an assembly and packing bench

Tools and parts at the point of use

Louvre panels hold small parts bins, pegboards and tool rails keep hand tools visible, and drawers store spares. Arranging these around the operator reduces reaching and searching.

Frames matched to the load

Fully welded steel frames are specified to suit the work, from standard packing bench strength through to heavy duty and extra heavy duty. Every frame is powder coated in blue RAL 5010 or any RAL colour you choose.

Worktops for assembly

Block beech and plywood stand up to knocks from tools and fixtures, while ESD laminate suits electronics. Our workbench worktops page compares the options.

Lean cells and signalling

Benches can be arranged in U-shaped or straight cells, with Andon signal lights so operators can call for parts or support. LED light rails and electrical sockets keep powered tools and inspection tasks well served.

Height and comfort

Assembly work is often detailed and repetitive. Standard height is 850mm and we adjust it free of charge, and height adjustable frames let each operator set the bench for seated or standing work. Monitor arms can hold work instructions at eye level.
