Vertical cartoning machines are secondary packaging machines designed to form, vertically fill, and close cartons, finding application in various industries. Unlike horizontal cartoners, vertical cartoning machines are often configured as stand-alone machines and not integrated into a line, with product insertion frequently performed by an operator. When automated, vertical cartoners can use robots or pick-and-place devices for product insertion.... At Makinate, you can find a wide selection of certified used vertical cartoning machines, ideal for flexible packaging operations with a sustainable investment and reliable performance.
Operating cycle of vertical cartoners
Vertical cartoners pick cartons from the magazine using a vacuum arm or a blade, form them, and close the bottom of the carton with a snap-fit or glue system. Blades help open the top flaps to prevent cartons from jamming during the process. The insert leaflet can be placed automatically or manually inside the carton before the product is inserted, ensuring operational flexibility. Afterwards, the carton is coded with the necessary information, closed, and moved onto a conveyor via a suction cup to proceed to the next packaging stages.
Quality controls and waste management
Vertical cartoning machines are equipped with quality control systems that verify the compliance of each carton during the packaging process. The main checks include product presence, leaflet presence, and proper carton closure. Non-compliant cartons, which may have defects such as missing product, missing leaflet, or improper closure, are automatically rejected onto a dedicated conveyor, ensuring that only perfectly packaged products continue through the production cycle and meet the quality standards required by the industry.
