Case packer is a device that semi-automatically or automatically loads unpackaged or small packaged products into transport packaging.

Its working principle is to pack the products in a certain arrangement and quantity into boxes (corrugatedcardboard boxes, plastic boxes, pallets), and close or seal the opening of the box. According to the requirements of the case packer, it should have the functions of forming (or opening) cardboard boxes, measuring, and packing, and some also have sealing or bundlingfunctions.

Case Packer Types And Applications

Types: The main forms of case packer include robot gripper type, servo coordinate type, delta robot integrate systemside push wrapping type, drop wrapping type, and high-speed linear wrapping type.

The automation, transmission, and control of wrapping machine are mainly based on the integration of mechanical, pneumatic, and photoelectric components.

Applications: At present, the case packer is suitable for packaging forms such as small boxes (such as food and drug packaging boxes), glass bottles, plastic bottles, plastic buckets, metal cans, soft packaging bags, etc.

Various packaging forms such as bottles, boxes, bags, barrels, etc. can be adjusted for universal use.

Bottles, cans, and other rigid packaging are collected and sorted, and then directly loaded into cardboard boxes, plastic boxes, or pallets in a certain quantity by the gripper or pusher of the case packer. If there are partitions inside the cardboard box, higher precision is required for packing.

The packing of soft packaging products generally adopts the method of simultaneously forming the box , collecting and filling materials, which can improve the packaging speed.

Mechanism Composition And Mechanical Operation

The basic requirement is to be able to achieve the process of case erector → case forming → product grouping and positioning → product packing → (adding partitions) case sealing.

In the actual operation process, case erecting, case forming, product grouping and positioning are carried out simultaneously to improve the efficiency of packing.

The intelligent fully automatic case packer adopts a high-speed distribution device and is suitable for various containers, such as plastic flat bottles, round bottles, irregular bottles, glass round bottles of various sizes, oval bottles, square cans, paper cans, paper boxes, etc. It is also suitable for packaging cases with partitions.

Taking the robot case packer as an example, the bottles (one or two boxes per group) are generally gripped by bottle grippers (with rubber built-in to prevent damage to the bottle body) , and then be put it into an open cardboard or plastic box. When the gripper is lifted, the cardboard box is pushed out and sent to the sealing machine. The case packer should also be equipped with safety devices such as bottle shortage alarm and shutdown, and no packing without bottles.

Overall, it should reflect the following characteristics: according to the packing requirements, it can automatically organize and arrange products, with a simple design, compact structure, wide applicability, suitable for packing various products, suitable for use with packaging assembly lines, easy to move, computer-controlled, easy to operate, and stable in action.

The automatic packing machine is equipped with auxiliary equipment such as sealing and bundling, which automatically performs sealing and bundling to complete the final process.
