Malden, Netherlands – End-of-line packaging machine manufacturer Lantech offers a range of innovative packaging systems to provide the logistics and e-commerce sector with fast, flexible packaging machines that set new standards in warehouse logistics and optimize the shipment of goods.
Efficiency with square cases in large range
The C-1000 Case Erector is renowned for its efficiency and square cases. It produces up to 30 cases per minute with flexible dimensions ranging from 200 x 150x 150 mm to 500 x 325 x 520 mm. Users reliably receive right-angled shipping cartons that provide maximum stability and are ideal for transportation.
The case erector produces 90-degree angles regardless of the type of the corrugated board, changing temperatures or humidity and varying plano dimensions. Users are assured of rectangular shipping boxes that are ideal for the logistics chain and offer maximum stability. Depending on customer preference, the bottom of the case is sealed with Hotmelt or tape.
Space saving Multi Format Case Erector
The C1000 case erector can however also be multiplied with 2-3 or 4 magazines then called Multi Format Case erector. The MFC increases the flexibility of the packaging process by allowing cases of different sizes to be erected with just one machine. This compact solution has up to four magazines that can be configured separately and filled during operation. This allows different case sizes to be produced on a single machine without the need for changeovers or production interruptions. The MFC saves valuable production space compared to using multiple conventional case erectors with a single magazine. Even more space is saved thanks to the central output point for the cases, as there is no need to combine different conveyors into a single output system.
Choice of many cases sizes
The MFC can handle cases with dimensions ranging from 200 x 150 x 150 mm to a maximum of 620 x 450 x 650 mm. The maximum throughput speed is 1080 cases per hour. The MFC is also equipped with Lantech's Total Control System. This ensures accurate control during the erection process, resulting in perfectly square cases. These square cases prevent jamming and are easier to load, stack and palletize.
Lock loads to pallets
For professional securing of loads on pallets, Lantech offers an efficient packaging solution with the QL400XT semi-automatic pallet wrapper. This machine reduces each wrapping process by two minutes per cycle by automatically attaching the film to the pallet and cutting it after wrapping. This is made possible by the patented ‘XT Cut and Clamp’ function, which is purely mechanical and requires no compressed air or electricity.
Another advantage is the intelligent ‘Load Guardian’ control system. The system creates special profiles with the correct tension for frequently occurring loads. This saves time and prevents operating errors. The QL-400XT stretch wrapper can process up to 35 pallet loads per hour, with a maximum diagonal of 1830 mm and a maximum height of 2030 mm. The processed film can be pre-stretched up to 300 per cent.
