WSI Global releases the XpressPack automatic case packer that runs high volumes of medium-to-large size cartons in single-layer, single-row configuration.
The unit can handle up to eight to 10 cases per cycle for the beverage market, particularly soda and beer, as well as cereal and laundry detergent boxes, foils and plastic wraps, and parchment paper.
The XpressPack is suited for standard five-panel folded carton, glue-end styles, accommodating sizes ranging from 8-inches wide by 8-inches long through 24-inches wide by 28-inches long.
Special machines for other sizes can be custom-engineered.
The pusher setup can be ordered with left-side push, right-side push, end-seam push, or a combination of packing modes.
For completely automated applications, the XpressPack is used with a case positioner and a corrugated case erector that automatically places pre-erected corrugated cases in a packer.
It is available in electric format with servo motors, or with a hydraulic system.
Add-ons include the WSI carton turning system for reversing glue flap orientation prior to packing, the air-skate lift kit for easily moving the packer off-line, and dual controls.
