Cartoning involves erecting a folded carton, filling it with the product, closing the flaps, or applying a lid and sealing with glue or adhesive tape. Choosing a cartoning solution involves, considering the type of primary packaging, the production volume, the size and count of the product in a carton, and the desired level of automation.

Cartoning

Many pet owners consider themselves parents of furry babies, meaning they consider their pets as family rather than companions. Consequently, pet owners are getting more concerned about their pets’ health and actively demanding a healthy diet. To respond to this market demand, there is a rise in raw pet food production, in which ingredients stay in a more natural state refraining from ultra-processing them and avoiding using preservatives and synthetic additives.

Packaging products usually require a great deal of flexibility to comply with demand from marketing for shelf-ready packaging. A machine that is able to quickly change for format and size to optimize the packaging process, is a good solution for those wanting to present their products in ready-to-sell units as trays or displays.


<h2>Wrap-around cartoning machine for packaging of shelf-ready displays</h2>
For shelf-ready packaging, Senzani designed the WACM series to automate the process of wrap-around packaging of products. With this series, vertical flat blanks magazine can be loaded with no production cycle interruptions. The wrap-around packaging machine can pack a variety of products, such as stock cubes, cartons, trays, coffee capsules, tins and cans, with a production speed up to 36 cartons per minute.

To preserve the integrity of the product during the transportation phases to the shelf, the packaging needs to be solid and firm. Therefore, the cartoner machine wraps carton around the product, handling everything with care. The use of a brushless motor additionally helps reduce maintenance times as there is no more need to replace worn brushes. Another added benefit of the WACM series is that there is no need for any additional tools when changing the shape and size of the packaging.

Depending on the type or the configuration of the product, the machine has multiple stations for product transfer, packaging formation and sealing.

In the food industry, a large number of bulk products like for example pasta, need to be packed in a carton with vertical filling. A good choice for packing breakable pasta and to make the process more efficient, would be the use of a vertical cartoning machine that inserts products from the top and can operate without interruptions thanks to continuous motion movement.


<h2>Primary packaging solution to vertically pack food products</h2>
The Senzani cartoners VCM series has a production speed up to 150 cartons per minute in continuous motion and is a good option to pack bulk products like pasta, frozen food or detergent powder in cartons. During the production process, cartons are loaded in the carton magazine in which photocells check for correct positioning of the carton. A rotary extraction turret picks the cartons one by one and positions them in a carton holders carousel with a continuous motor drive. Hot-melt glue is then applied to the bottom flaps. Pivoting discharge funnels ensure a constant filling of the cartons and successively detectors control product level. After filling, upper flaps are also closed with a glue application. To avoid waste, this machine can be provided with a no product/ no carton function: in case of product missing in the infeed flow, this specific function prevents the relevant cartons from being picked, avoiding carton rejection and glue use or waste.

It’s easy to change the shape and size of the packaging, there is no need for any additional tools with the Senzani VCM series. The size changeover set includes instructions on the operator’s manual to avoid mistakes.

Depending on the primary product packages, food products like confectionery (biscuits and candies) that are packaged in a tray, can be a tight fit with secondary packaging. In this case, a solution that would be able to load the product horizontally (from the bottom of the packaging) and that pushes the product into a carton from the side, would be ideal. A horizontal cartoner is a great match for efficiently packaging food products such as flour mixes, frozen dumplings or snacks, where there’s not too much worry about breakage.


<h2>Pushing the product horizontally into cartons</h2>
The Basis50 horizontal cartoning machine designed by Basis shapes cartons for secondary packaging of food products from pre-glued blanks. Blank cartons are loaded in the machine, after which the small flaps on the end of the carton are folded, followed by the bigger flaps. With the machine, the food products that might come in bags or trays or other primary packaging, are now automatically pushed in the cartons by pushers in continuous motion. After putting the product in the preformed cartons, necessary information is printed on the outer box flap, after which the packaging is sealed with hot melting glue. The machine works with a production speed of up to 50 cartons per minute.

Secondary packaging sizes are flexible in length, width and height. The machine can work with getting the supply from a conveyor system or a flow pack. Another option is getting the supply manually. Also, it is easy to change between the primary packaging solution, be it a thin plastic film or for example group stacking of bars. Then, there is the option for the Basis50 to work with various types of packs.

Most packaging applications require different types of packaging machines, some need wraparound cartoners and others shrink wrapping systems.
Having two machines demands a considerable amount of space. An economical alternative could be a packaging system that combines both functions in one for multiple product applications.


<h2>Combined packaging system for wraparound cartons and shrink wrapping</h2>
The Combi provided by Baumer is a combined packing system that can perform wraparound carton packaging and shrink-wrap packaging. It is ideal for packing a wide range of products such as canned pet food, as it can pack quickly and safely in film only or pad and film and wraparound cartons. This machine features a patented BM BELT conveyor placed in between the transport chains to shift functions from wraparound cartons to shrink wrapping film. This can be done only by using controls from the touch screen panel. The system can work both with loose products and multipacks and is available in 3 models depending on production capacity. The production capacities are 35, 50, and 80 packs per minute.
