Vertical cartoner for pharmaceutical applications
Many pharmaceutical and cosmetic products are sold in protective and decorative cartons. An automatic vertical cartoner can greatly increase packing efficiency by taking carton blanks and quickly forming and sealing the carton allowing product to be inserted from the top, and then closing and passing on for final packing. Even greater efficiencies are available through machine that can handle a wide variety of carton types.
