From Flat Case Blank to Case Ready for Filling
The automatic case erector picks a flat case blank from the magazine, opens and squares it, then folds the bottom flaps and seals the base. The erected case is released toward filling, correctly oriented and ready for the downstream conveyors.
Automating this stage reduces repetitive manual tasks and feeds the line with erected cases in a consistent sequence, facilitating subsequent filling and sealing.
Consistent Feeding to the Filling Stage
The case erector must be sized for the line’s required throughput so that cases are available when needed by the case packing cycle.
Sensors and control logic manage case release according to downstream station availability, limiting accumulation or case shortages during filling. The erector can connect to automatic case packers, robotic cells, conveyors and sealing systems as part of an automated packaging installation.
