Flexibility and future proofing
The Case Closer system design is modular to allow multiple variants with maximum flexibility.
Start with the individual machines to erect and close, with manual packing then add in a conveyor system with vision system and robotic pick and place to create a fully automatic system.
The machine frame and size are designed to suit your minimum and maximum carton sizes. Applications vary from production line applications to B2C single order dispatch from warehouses.
All our case closing machines can be adapted to suit case size range.
Easy access, small footprint, low maintenance
As with all Smurfit Westrock PMA machines they are designed to be as compact as possible, with easy access for operators.
With servo controls throughout, changeover times are cut to a minimum, generally less than 5 minutes with one operator, with complete repeatability to ensure vertical start up.
Machine speeds of up to 30 cartons per minute, depending on product being handled and size of carton. Our machines are designed with maintenance in mind and it is a priority to ensure that upkeep is simple, quick and easy.
The system is UK designed and built for 24/7 operating environments, with full diagnostic system and Ethernet connectivity for remote support as standard.
