Operation steps

Automatic pick & place case packer for bottles

Step 1: Bottles infeed

The bottles or containers are fed into the machine by the infeed conveyor in a single row.

Step 2: Bottles flow dividing

The bottles flow is divided into several lanes according to the packaging pattern.

Step 3: Bottles accumulation

The bottles are transferred to the accumulation section where they are accumulated according to the packing pattern.

Step 4: Box forming

The box or case is formed at the box forming section. This section is provided with the box magazine where the boxes in flat are loaded manually. The process of forming the boxes is fully automatic. When the box is formed, it is transferred by side belts into the packing section of the machine.

Step 5: Preparing box for packing

The box in the packing section is held in place with its upper flaps opened to not interfere with packing process.

Step 6: Bottles picking

When sensors detect the required quantity of product in the accumulation section, the rotary grippers pick the bottles and rotate them to the packing section.

Step 7: Packing the bottles into the box

The rotary gripper with the products goes down and places them into the opened box.

Step 8: Box closing and sealing

The box is then moved by side belts to the sealing section. Box upper flaps are gradually closed and both upper and bottom flaps are sealed with adhesive tape or hot melt glue.
