Case packing
Case erecting, packing and sealing
Automatic case packing as part of your line: from erecting the case, through packing the product, to sealing, palletising and wrapping the pallet. We select the machines for your case format and output, and integrate the whole line ourselves.

From a flat blank to a wrapped pallet

Case erecting
The erector opens a flat blank from the magazine and closes the bottom with tape or glue.

Packing
The product drops into the case or is placed by a robot with a MadejPak gripper.

Robot packing
When the product needs placing, a robot packs it
Products that cannot be dropped into the case are placed by a KUKA robot or a DOBOT cobot. We design and build the gripper in-house, for your product.
- MadejPak grippers for the specific product
- Operation in cold stores and high humidity
- The robot can also palletise the finished cases

Questions
Frequently asked questions about case packing
Which cases can the machines handle?
Regular slotted cases (FEFCO 0200 and 0201) in B, C or E flute. Erectors handle cases from 200 × 150 × 150 mm to 620 × 500 × 600 mm, and sealers from 130 × 100 × 90 mm to 900 × 650 × 700 mm, depending on the model.
Tape or glue?
Both are available: 50 or 75 mm tape, or hot-melt glue. We select them for your case and your customer’s requirements.
Can the sealer handle different formats on one line?
Yes. There are versions that adjust themselves to every case and versions that change over automatically from stored recipes.
How fast does the erector form cases?
Up to 20 cases per minute, and up to 15 for large formats. Actual output depends on case dimensions.
Can you combine case packing with palletising?
Yes. We design the whole end of line: erecting, packing, sealing, palletising and pallet wrapping, with our own feeders and buffers between machines.
Are the machines suitable for cold stores or frequent washdown?
Stainless steel versions are available. We have automated packing in a cold store with high humidity for the cheese producer Lazur, among others.
