Case and tray packing machines

This section of the website covers machines for packing a group of products into cases, crates or trays, normally for palletizing and subsequent handling through the supply chain. They are sometimes defined collectively as group packing machines. Cases and trays are typically made from corrugated board or heavy duty cartonboard.

Case erecting machines form packing cases from partially assembled blanks for conveying to downstream packing operations

Tray forming machines form trays from flat blanks for conveying to downstream packing operations.

Place packing machines lift and place collated groups of products into packing cases.

Case sealing machines close and seal previously filled packing cases.

Wraparound case packing machines combine the functions of forming, packing and sealing a case in one machine by wrapping the case blank around a group of collated products.

Bottom loading case packing machines load collated groups of product into a partly formed case from below. Case erecting, packing and sealing are normally integrated in one machine.

Wraparound tray packing machines combine the functions of forming and packing a tray in one machine by wrapping the tray blank around a group of collated products.
