Cartoning Machines for Pre-Glued Cartons

Universal Pack designs and builds cartoning machines for pre-glued cartons. We integrate this type of cartoning machine with both our stick pack and sachet packaging machines, according to your needs.

Our patented counting and stacking unit transfers the stick packs or sachets into the infeed chain of our cartoning machine in the required position. Pre-glued cartons are suitable for stick packs and sachets placed on-edge, even in multi-level configurations.

We provide our cartoning machines for pre-glued cartons with the side-loading system. This means that the cartoning machine inserts sachets or stick packs from the side of the carton. In addition, the cartoning unit for pre-glued cartons can include key accessories such as dynamic or static checkweighers, leaflet insertion systems with presence check and tamper-evident labeling machine.

This range of cartoning machines provides high flexibility in carton formats. The format of your cartons depends on the number of stick packs or sachets to be inserted. The double balcony supports high accessibility to the machine from both the front and rear sides. In fact, our cartoning machines provide operators with easy access for fast parts and size changeovers.

Our cartoning machines can form and fill pre-glued cartons with different openings:

  • Head-opening carton
  • Side-opening carton
  • Side-opening carton with on edge placement

Formats

Our machines for pre-glued cartons support high flexibility in carton formats. Carton format and dimensions vary depending on the number of sachets to be inserted. The machine can insert one or two sachets in smaller cartons (min. dimensions: 40 x 20 x 68 mm) or 100 or more sachets in cartons with larger formats (max. dimensions: 355 x 150 x 150 mm). We have developed patented counting units for any number of packages to be picked and placed into cartons. Our approach focuses on reducing as much material and product as possible, both for economic and environmental sustainability.

Sustainability

Our continuous research in reducing the packaging industry’s carbon footprint resulted in streamlined machinery design for packaging recycled, recyclable and compostable laminates. LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) is used to measure the environmental impact of our products and identify optimal ways to reduce it. It is a 360° analysis that goes beyond the mere packaging produced and involves every step of the packaging machinery production process. We develop our solutions in close collaboration with leading global film suppliers and test them in agreement with major multinational companies in order to provide them with a turnkey solution able to produce more sustainable packages.
