A company engineers automatic horizontal cartoning machines to easily adjust to narrow and wide pitches, thus accommodating a range of carton sizes at speeds of 60 or 150 cartons per minute. The compact SC-series machines also come with a variety of in-feed configurations, including a robotic option and the manufacturer’s own end-of-arm tooling. A large-capacity carton magazine includes digital handwheel adjustment for rapid size changeover. The servo-driven machines employ either intermittent or continuous motion, depending on the speed necessary, and can handle preglued cartons with straight or reverse tuck-in closure. In addition, they accommodate a glue-closing application and automatic product-feeding systems. Available options include leaflet and booklet inserters; a choice of coding technologies; and code readers for verification of leaflets, carton blanks, or filled cartons.
