Carton forming (erecting) and sealing

Automate retail packaging by using our carton formers/erectors to (1) form/erect your retail cartons from blanks, and then after your team has filled the boxes, (2) seal them with our sealers with up to 72 boxes per minute.

As processing lines become faster and more efficient, the packaging process must be able to cope with the high volume, and handle your valuable raw material with the least amount of damage.

We build our machines of stainless steel using the latest technology on offer to manufacture the parts and assemble in the shortest and most cost effective manner. Most components are either manufactured by us or sourced locally to ensure the best possible price and back-up service that any production line requires.

The machines are very operator friendly and have the necessary safety devices built in to ensure safe operations at all time. The speed of the machines are easily adjustable. The speed in cycles/min is also indicated accurately so it is easy for production staff to fine tune the required throughput. The only required connections are a compressed air supply as well as an electrical supply.

Carton ERECTORS

Our carton erectors fold and form open 3-flap retail cartons from pre-cut flat boards with the corners interlocking.  3-flap cartons allow for very easy filling of the product prior to sealing. Also, no glue is used in the erecting process, thus saving production costs.

Each processor usually has his own carton design, and then often a number of different designs.  This presents no problem for the carton erectors, since the forming tools in the machine are interchangeable, and can be exchanged in less than 15 minutes.  Forming tools are specifically designed for each type of carton and can therefore be ordered separately should new products/carton sizes be developed at a later stage.

Carton CLOSERS and SEALERS

After the food has been placed into the folded carton, it is then fed into a carton sealing machine, which closes and seals the carton using either hot air or hot glue.

The advanced PLC records numerous data points which greatly help maintenance staff troubleshoot possible issues.
