Work cycle: The pre-folded cartons are loaded into the magazine and placed in the vertical position. The gripping unit comprises suction pads that open the boxes and position them in the carton-holder of the conveyor star wheel. The subsequent steps are the closing of the bottom flaps of the box and the printing (optional) on 2 or 3 lines, dry or with ink. The carton then moves on, with intermittent motion, to the manual product loading station on the operator side. In the last stages, the cartons are closed at the top and automatically expelled through the outlet chute. 

Carton closing: Top and bottom insertion with opposite (asymmetrical) or aeroplane tuck flaps. 

Top and bottom gluing – Hot melt (optional). 

Mixed (gluing and insertion) (option).
