Reverse Flow Case Packers

Acclaim® Reverse Flow Case Packer

The Acclaim® Reverse Flow Case Packer is capable of running both RSC and HSC display cases. This machine is equipped with wrong-way carton detection which automatically drops misaligned cartons through without resulting in a stop. This machine also features an extended case blank magazine, a servo-driven downstacker, pack pattern flexibility, and a small footprint.

• RSC, HSC display, or short flap

• Positive carton collation system loads case directly or tips stack 90 degrees before loading

• Cases loaded through the top or bottom, then tipped upright either direction

• High speed 90 degree transfer on infeed (more positive than inline turning methods)

• Gantry robot case setup with arc setup motion to positively open cases

• Vacuum cups secure the bottom major flaps while the upper major flaps are secured with rails to prevent jams due to out-of-spec manufacture flaps or warped cases

• Funnels insert beyond the case score line to prevent cartons from snagging case corners, then retract before pivoting closed

• Combination funnel-tucker allows case packer to have just 2 stations (load and compression)

• Case squaring devices in compression station for maximum case squareness

• Tip/reject module designed to gently tip cases upright onto their flaps, or reject cases out of the side of the machine for quality control or open flaps
