New - Soco Box Erector F-100-5

• Used in food processing lines for forming cardboard boxes or cartons for secondary packaging.
• Suitable for industries requiring efficient and consistent box assembly for various products.
• Applicable in logistics and distribution centres for preparing packaging prior to product insertion.
• Utilised in manufacturing environments to automate the initial stage of packaging operations.

Typical capacity

For this class of semi-automatic box erector, throughput typically ranges from 5 to 10 boxes per minute, depending on operator efficiency and box size.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly require a standard single-phase electrical supply, typically 230V, 50Hz, with a modest power consumption.

Air supply

Pneumatic systems are often integrated, requiring a compressed air supply, typically 6-8 bar, for carton forming and sealing mechanisms.

Box dimensions

This model class typically accommodates a range of carton sizes; buyers should confirm the specific minimum and maximum dimensions with the seller.

Footprint

Semi-automatic erectors generally have a compact footprint, suitable for integration into existing packaging lines without extensive space requirements.

Material compatibility

Designed for use with standard corrugated cardboard or carton board blanks.

Case packers are valued for their ability to automate repetitive boxing tasks, improving throughput and consistency across food production lines. Buyers typically prioritize machines in good mechanical condition, with accessible spare parts availability and clear maintenance histories. Industry sentiment favours models from established manufacturers known for durability. Key considerations when purchasing used units include verifying operational status, checking for wear on conveyor systems and gripper mechanisms, and confirming compatibility with existing line specifications. Reliable case packers offer significant labour cost savings and production efficiency gains.
