Effortlessly streamline your packaging line with compact cartoning capabilities, ensuring delicate items are handled with care and precision, and enabling seamless transitions between product sizes without halting operations.

Packs and Seals Products in Compact Cartons

The VRC-60 from Rychiger is a cutting-edge vacuum cartoner designed for high-speed, efficient secondary packaging. This compact machine, measuring just 1 x 1 meter, is perfect for space-conscious operations across industries such as pharmaceuticals, food, and cosmetics. Its sophisticated design incorporates a rotary table with twelve vacuum stations for delicate handling of thin-walled cartons, ensuring precise and careful packaging of items like medicine blister packs, coffee pods, and cosmetic jars.

The VRC-60 achieves up to 60 cartons per minute, facilitated by a robotic system that handles product loading and sealing operations with speed and accuracy. This cartoner supports single-lane or multi-lane product feeds, enhancing your ability to maintain high throughput in various packing patterns. Its flexibility is enhanced by tool-free size switching, providing seamless adaptation to different product dimensions.

Designed for integration into existing production lines, the VRC-60 supports additional quality control modules like weighing and vision systems, and labeling options including QR code and RFID tags. Its semi-automatic and manual modes offer versatility for handling specialty or small-batch items. Constructed with durability in mind, the VRC-60 meets industry standards for safety and efficiency, positioning it as an essential tool for enhancing productivity and reliability in packaging processes.
