Case Erectors
A case erector is a sophisticated piece of machinery that takes flat sheets of corrugated cardboard and transforms them into fully-formed boxes. There are two primary methods used by case erectors to create a complete box: adhesive application and corrugate tab connection. Adhesive application involves the use of hot melt or cold glue to seal the bottom flaps of the cardboard box together. The adhesive is applied to the flaps by nozzles or rollers, and the machine then folds the flaps and applies pressure to hold them in place until the glue dries. Corrugate tab connection, on the other hand, uses the natural properties of the cardboard to connect the flaps. The machine folds the cardboard flaps in a precise manner that creates a tab, which is then tucked into a slot in the adjacent flap to create a secure seal. Depending on the specific design of the case erector, it may use one or both of these methods to assemble boxes. Regardless of the approach, the end result is a fully-formed box that is ready to be filled with products and shipped to retailers or end consumers.
Case Erectors & Tray Formers: because something needs to fold & seal that 24 pack
Case erectors and tray formers are indispensable machines for production and manufacturing facilities. They play a crucial role in transforming flat sheets of corrugated cardboard into fully functional cases and trays that are used to package various products – anything that goes in a box. Tray formers in particular can be used to form trays that hold beverages such as beer, soda, and sparkling water. These machines are designed to automate the process of folding and gluing the boxes, which greatly increases the production efficiency and consistency of the packaging process. By automating these repetitive tasks, packaging companies can save time and reduce labor costs, while also ensuring that their products are securely and efficiently packaged for safe transportation to their customers.
