NHC-40: Horizontal Linear Cartoner
NHC-40: Horizontal Linear Cartoner
Introducing the new NHC-40 horizontal linear cartoner, a fully automatic cartoning machine, featuring several industry-first advancements that achieve superior repeat-ability, reliability and speed while maximizing equipment versatility. Its motion is derived from a servo driven indexing conveyor that easily generates an output of 40 cartons per minute. The horizontally-mounted carton buckets in cooperation with an offset product collation and loading area helps keep this cartoner under 3m (7.5′) in length, while maximizing carton size range.
This automatic carton packing machine features a unique carton feeder, erecting cartons into specially-sized buckets that hold the cartons in place with integrated suction cups throughout the entire path of the machine. This one-of-a-kind design eliminates friction between rails and cartons and prevents scuffing and scratching of delicate carton surfaces. The magnetic detents also provide a quick and simple changeover, requiring no tools!
Ideal for mid-speed production runs, this horizontal cartoning machine is a versatile platform and can be fully automated or semi automatic depending on your required speeds and other specifications . All-cylinder or all-servo versions available to best suit your packaging requirement.
