Integrate seamless cartoning into your production line

The Criterion® CMI-160 from R.A Jones (Coesia Group) is an intermittent end load cartoner designed for medium to large centers, with a capacity of up to 160 cartons per minute. This system is particularly suited for food and pet care sectors, handling products such as baby food, baked goods, biscuits, crackers, chocolate, and snacks. The CMI-160 stands out due to its compact footprint and the integration of the product collator/transfer unit directly into the main frame.
