Product collating
Counting, stacking and pitch control are developed for the intended number and orientation of packs per carton.
Flexible packs and food cartoning
Food cartoners for pouches, sachets, flow-wrap packs, bars and confectionery with product-specific collating and carton presentation.

Application engineering overview
A pouch cartoning machine must control flexible products that can bend, overlap or change shape during transfer. The infeed and collating concept is therefore developed around the actual pouch material, seal edges, fill distribution, pack dimensions and number of products required in each carton.
Sachet cartoning machine and food cartoner applications can include individual sachets, collated pouches, wrapped bars, confectionery, flow-wrap packs and presentation cartons. Horizontal end-load cartoning is suitable for many regular collated groups, while top-load cartoning may be considered for presentation packs or products that benefit from vertical placement.
The food cartoning machine can interface with flow wrappers, counting systems, weigh-checking, coding and downstream case packing. Soap cartoning machine projects use similar principles when wrapped bars or soap pouches need controlled orientation and carton loading.
Discuss this applicationProduct formats
The feeding, change parts and carton-handling sequence are confirmed from actual samples, required output and the intended production process.
System architecture
Counting, stacking and pitch control are developed for the intended number and orientation of packs per carton.
Guides and transfers control seal edges, variable product thickness and compressible packs before insertion.
The cartoner can synchronize with flow wrapping, pouching, coding, weighing and product-rejection equipment.
