Features

N/A Large capacity, easy load case magazine
The high capacity case magazine with built-in auxiliary magazine assures a continuous supply of cases to the erector. As each case stack is used, another stack is automatically indexed into position, minimizing the attention of your line personnel. The ergonomic, low level magazine is easy to refill without lifting or raising cases.

Designed for real world production
The 450 erector is loaded with features to accommodate less than perfect cases. The opening arms 'over-open' the major flaps to compensate for incorrectly slotted cases, and the vacuum cups grip each case from above and below to compensate for warped cases and ensure proper opening.

Motorized walking beams continuously square cases as they travel from opening through sealing to ensure that well-formed cases are sent to your packer.

Intelligent Control ensures precise operation
A-B-C's Intelligent Control takes PLC logic one step further, to provide unprecedented control of line performance. Closed loop position feedback ensures precise timing of each operating sequence, utilizing non-contact sensors to provide input. The touch screen display provides real-time operating data, and allows independent operation of all functions, diagnostics, and changeover settings.

Servo-powered sealing ram forms square cases
As each case enters the sealing station, the servo motor-powered sealing ram smoothly and reliably enters the case and compresses the flaps to ensure a secure seal. The ram stroke is precisely controlled by the servo motor, ensuring optimum precision during high speed production runs.
