The CIEMME horizontal cartoner offered and represented by PROPACK is designed for automatic packaging of products in cardboard boxes on industrial production lines. Depending on the products, formats and line configuration, it can reach around 50 boxes per minute, while adapted versions can achieve outputs of up to 80 boxes per minute.
Thanks to its servo-driven design, optional automated changeover and compatibility with robotic loading systems, it meets the needs of manufacturers looking for a fast, reliable and high-performance cartoning solution.
Description of the Automatic Horizontal Cartoner
The CIEMME horizontal cartoner is an industrial packaging machine designed for automatic cartoning of products. It is particularly suited to food and industrial production lines requiring flexibility, precision and continuous production.
This cartoner can handle a wide variety of products such as bags, trays, pizzas, biscuits, chocolate bars, bottles, prepared meals, individually wrapped products and pet food products. Products are automatically inserted into the boxes using a suitable feeding system, which can be combined with robotic loading to optimize product flow, reduce manual handling and improve packaging-line productivity.
Its servo-driven design provides high operating precision, excellent cycle repeatability and accurate synchronization with upstream and downstream equipment. Program memory and automated changeovers reduce downtime, simplify adjustments and optimize production performance.
Flexible, high-performance and scalable, the horizontal cartoner meets the needs of manufacturers looking for a reliable automatic cartoning solution capable of handling different product formats while maintaining a high level of packaging quality and consistency.
What are the advantages of the horizontal cartoner?
- ✅ Intermittent-motion machine
The horizontal cartoner automates product cartoning with output of up to 80 boxes per minute depending on formats and applications. - ✅ Increased productivity
Thanks to its automatic operation, the machine reduces manual intervention, optimizes production flow and improves overall packaging-line efficiency. - ✅ Reliable packaging
Equipped with a positive box-opening system using suction cups and counter-suction cups, the cartoner ensures consistent box handling even at higher speeds. - ✅ Precision and repeatability
Its servo-driven design ensures high operating precision, excellent synchronization of movements and optimum repeatability of packaging cycles. - ✅ Reduced line downtime
The machine’s robust design, automated cycles and program memory help limit incidents, reduce downtime and maintain continuous production. - ✅ Automated changeover
The horizontal cartoner adapts to different box and product formats. Automated changeover, depending on the model, simplifies adjustments and saves time during production changes. - ✅ Suitable for food and industrial products
This cartoner can handle a wide variety of products: bags, trays, pizzas, biscuits, chocolate bars, prepared meals, bottles, individually wrapped products and pet food products. - ✅ Integration into automated lines
The cartoner can be integrated into an existing packaging line and connected to upstream or downstream equipment such as an automatic feeding system, conveyor or robotic loading system. - ✅ Packaging quality and security
Boxes are formed, loaded and securely closed, notably with hot-melt adhesive, to provide consistent, clean packaging that meets industrial requirements. - ✅ Improved competitiveness
By increasing output, reducing manual handling and optimizing packaging performance, the horizontal cartoner helps improve the profitability of the production line.
