Cermex FlexiCase multifunction top-loading case packer

Thursday, 13 December, 2012 | Supplied by: Allied Industries Pty Ltd


Cermex has expanded its product range with the Flexicase multifunction top-loading case packer, which forms, loads and seals. The company claims its case packer is one of the most efficient solutions on the market, when speed, footprint and packaging size range are taken into account.

With a speed of 40 cases/min, a 20 m2 footprint and good scope in products/cases handled, the case packer is suitable for the packing of plastic bottles of all sizes, shapes and strength in to RSCs (regular slotted containers). Seventeen servomotors for the various functions ensure fluidity and accuracy.

Several product collating modules can be associated with the FlexiCase, with the choice of either stop and go or continuous technology, according to speed and bottle criteria.

The machine’s footprint is a third smaller than a traditional horizontal forming solution. The cases are extracted vertically and descend positively via a chute to be opened and then transferred to the lower flap sealing station. Six servomotors hold and guide the cases to safeguard the process. At a level of 900 mm, the case magazine is ergonomic in order to facilitate reloading by the operator.

The FlexiCase is equipped with a Cermex numerical axis gantry, associated with a simple, lightweight gripping tool. Modular in design, the machine offers the possibility of integrating third-party polyarticulated robots.

Three servomotors and a positive lateral-band drive facilitate the kinematics of the hot melt glueing operating to create accurate case folding, squaring and pressing while eliminating bumping. A sealing alternative using adhesive tape is also available.

The packer has a cantilever structure enabling walk-in access to the heart of the machine. Developed in compliance with OMAC (Organization for Machine Automation and Control) standard, all of the functions making up the packer are broken down into autonomous subprograms to facilitate machine operation and maintenance.
