Media Packaging Specialty Folded Cartons Self Mailers
Bump and Turn Module
Function
Description
Typical Applications
Gives operator ability to turn product 90 degrees per station.
Pack-Smarts fully adjustable Bump and Turn module changes direction of product and registers sheet position for further processing. Made from low friction materials allowing for turning at high speeds with no product damage.
Hybrid Cartons Folded Cartons Gift Card Affixing
Delivery Module
Delivers finished product for hand packing.
Function
Description The Shingled Delivery Conveyor is designed with several ergonomic features, minimizing fatigue of the operator when handling products in high speed applications. Two stage height adjustment on each end of the conveyor allows for quick adjustment of table elevation, based on operator preference. Variable speed with batching ability provides gaps eliminating needs for counting finished product, while increasing productivity. Clearing jams is handled by rapid acceleration switches located on each side of the conveyor.
Typical Applications
Gift Card Products CD/DVD Products Lenticular Products
Value Added & Automated Fulfilment Modules
Rotary Scoring Module
Utilized for scoring or slitting products fed from a conveyor.
Function
Description The Pack-Smart Rotary Scoring system is designed to deliver a high quality product at all times for our demanding paper finishing customers. Designed with accuracy and functionality in mind the rotary creasing unit is equipped with six hardened shafts and quick change over features, as well as "on-the-fly" depth adjustments. Offline configurations or inline with Pack-Smart or third party integration. A servo driven control module ensures 100% accurate synchronization with sheet feeding and alignment modules.
