Countless products are best packaged with cartons. As such, it is necessary to use the right cartoning machine to package your products. A cartoning machine functions by erecting, folding and sealing cartons. This type of packaging machine is also referred to as the cartoner, which serves to make carton blanks stand up straight, close, fold, and then finally, seal them.
At Paxiom, we provide a broad selection of packaging machines for cartoning, conveying, container auxiliary, end-of-line automation, filling, and packaging. Focusing on our cartoning solutions, we have two: a vertical cartoner and a tray former with an inserter. But before discussing further our automated packaging machinery for cartons, let us first understand a little more about cartoning machines. Types of cartoner packaging machinery A cartoning machine can either be a semi-automatic or automatic cartoner. Apart from these two categories, cartoning packaging machinery can also be classified into two types depending on the orientation of the carton: 1. Horizontal cartoning machine Horizontal cartoners involve inserting the products from the side. This type of carton is capable of operating in either intermittent or continuous mode. Horizontal cartoning machines can also be availed to include an automatic loading process. These machines can be utilized in many applications in the food sector including but not limited to cakes, cereals, coffee, pizza, and rice. 2. Vertical cartoning machine On the other hand, a vertical cartoner works by feeding a carton blank through the machine in a vertical position, hence the name. Depending on your machine, if it’s a semi-automatic or automatic cartoner, the product can be inserted manually or automatically. In most vertical cartoning machines, the loading of products typically happens at the top. Some common applications include dry pasta, rice, and many more. How it works The cartoner is feed with a carton blank and converts it into a carton to be filled with product. Alternatively, you can also opt to fill multiple products in a single carton. This machine fills the carton with the product and puts adhesive tape to both ends to seal the carton. The cartoning machine picks up a single carton from a stack of cartons and subsequently erects it. Then it fills the carton with the product or a bag of products. Once the products are inside the carton, it is closed by tucking the end flaps. For some machines, they use glue or adhesive. Carton machines can be used in several applications like cosmetics, confectionery, food, medicine, etc. Benefits of a cartoning equipment Automated cartoning machines provide many benefits including:
Boxxer Kartner for automatic carton forming and sealing Known as the leader in integrated packaging equipment and machinery for all three stages of the packaging line--primary, secondary, and end-of-line--the Paxiom Group offers the most personalized buying experience to its customers across the globe. Our automatic vertical cartoning machine operates by forming, tucking, and closing your chipboard blanks. It is made with versatility in mind, which explains how it can handle a variety of carton styles including pop-up, glued, tucked, and auto-lock cartons. As mentioned before, a carton forming machine can be divided into two categories: a semi-automatic and automatic machine. At Paxiom, we manufacture our Kartnr Carton Forming Machines in two models: hand load (or also called semi-automatic) and automatic cartoner. With a hand load Kartnr, the vertical cartoning machine automatically opens and conveys the carton to the filling area. From there, a person is assigned to hand load the contents of the carton. After loading the products, the top lid of the carton can be opened or automatically glued or tucked. With an automatic Kartnr, it can be interfaced with an in-feed conveying system that automatically accumulates the product and loads it directly into the carton. As a result, no human interaction is required. How Boxxer Kartnr works
