Machine features
Bottle supply
Feeding bottles at high speeds requires a precisely tuned motion sequence. For the cartoning process, bottles are separated. Bottle handling must be executed carefully to prevent the bottle from breaking.
Air Frame
Air flow in the opening process assists the mechanical process of opening folding boxes. This process enables the gentle forced opening of the packaging material even at high speeds. Refined folding boxes for the beverages industry, for example, can be optimally processed this way.
