PA - F100P

• Used in end-of-line packaging operations for erecting and filling cases.
• Suitable for integration with automatic case sealers or conveyor systems.
• Often found in industries requiring manual packing of products into pre-erected cases.
• Applicable for packaging lines handling heavy or bulky outer cartons.

Typical throughput

Operator-dependent, but typically up to 8-12 cases per minute for this class of semi-automatic equipment.

Power supply

Primarily pneumatic, commonly requiring a compressed air supply of 6-8 bar. Electrical power, typically single-phase 230V, may be needed for controls.

Case size range

Units of this type commonly accommodate a range of RSC (Regular Slotted Container) case sizes; specific dimensions would need to be confirmed with the seller.

Footprint

Typically a compact footprint, designed as a standalone packing station, often around 1.5m x 1m.

Construction materials

Commonly constructed from painted mild steel or stainless steel for food-grade applications.

Automation level

Semi-automatic, requiring operator interaction for product loading and initiation of case discharge.

• What type of cases can this machine handle?

  This type of equipment is typically designed for Regular Slotted Containers (RSC) or similar corrugated cardboard cases. The specific range of case dimensions should be verified with the seller.

Case packers are valued for their ability to automate repetitive boxing tasks, improving throughput and consistency across food production lines. Buyers typically prioritize machines in good mechanical condition, with accessible spare parts availability and clear maintenance histories. Industry sentiment favours models from established manufacturers known for durability. Key considerations when purchasing used units include verifying operational status, checking for wear on conveyor systems and gripper mechanisms, and confirming compatibility with existing line specifications. Reliable case packers offer significant labour cost savings and production efficiency gains.
