Overview The BestPack MSBF SERIES sealer is a semi-automatic operator-fed adjustable carton erector/sealer. This unit is designed to reduce the time required to seal the bottom flaps of cartons, where the carton forming volume has become too large to hand form and hand tape the cartons, but the volume is too small to justify a fully automatic carton erector/sealer. All units are available in standard finish or stainless steel. Also available with 2" or 3" tape head CARTON ERECTOR PROCESS There are two stations to the carton erector. Station one folds the bottom flaps of the carton. Station two seals the bottom flaps and feeds the carton automatically on to a conveyor. At station one, the flap folding station, the operator takes a carton and opens it. With a downward and forward motion, the operator closes the front minor flap. Then with a slight downward reverse motion, the rear minor flap now has been closed. At that point, a micro switch activates two air cylinders that fold the two major flaps. The operator then feeds the carton slightly forward where two side belts grab the carton and feeds the carton through the sealing station and then out to the conveyor. Features The unit reduces operator fatigue and increases output. Adjustable Bed Height from 24.5" to 30.75" Compared to hand taping, the quality of the seal and the appearance of the carton is greatly improved.
