Industrial case rejector for faulty packaging
Ensure product integrity by smoothly removing faulty cases from your production line, optimizing both precision and careful handling without halting high-speed operations.

Rejects and Sorts Faulty Packaging
The HEUFT case rejector system, a precision engineering solution from HEUFT SYSTEMTECHNIK GmbH, excels in efficiently managing faulty or non-brand packaging on high-speed production lines. This system’s unique load-dependent control adapts rejection impact to case weight, ensuring precise removal and distribution without damaging the packaging. Its adaptability spans diverse applications, handling beverage crates and pharmaceutical vials to food trays and pet food packages, maintaining brand integrity across the board. Each component, from the HEUFTxcase to the space-saving HEUFTmaxi-laner, integrates seamlessly into existing conveyor systems, enhancing throughput and operational efficiency. Designed with continuous, automated operation in mind, it leverages HEUFT’s robust mechanical engineering and intelligent control systems to reduce energy usage and streamline processes. Compliance with industry standards guarantees its reliability and safety, while options for customization ensure it meets specific production needs.
