Expansion of existing filling line with MP500 cartoning machine + palletising
15/03/2021

This producer of high-quality cosmetic products has for several years been using our various filling lines for different jar and bottle sizes, which are closed using an enormous variety of lids and pumps.

These finished jars and bottles had always been packed manually in American folding boxes, but the production increased enormously in recent months, and therefore improvements were needed.

So we installed a standard MP500 cartoning machine, which positions the jars and bottles (approximately 14 combinations and configurations) into their correct formations, before automatically transferring them to the cardboard boxes. Different format sets were provided for all combinations and configurations, which enabled all jars and bottles to be packed entirely automatically. The maximum speed of the cartoning machine is set at 500 cartons per hour. A driven roller conveyor provides the required buffer, as well as the connection to the automatic palletiser, which was installed by one of our local partners, in close and transparent collaboration between all parties involved.

The machine line consists of:

• MP500 cartoning machine for American folding boxes
• Driven buffer roller conveyor
• Palletising system
