Operating procedure:
1 - The box is placed manually on the roller conveyor.
2 - The table on which the carton is placed automatically rises under the filling sleeve.
3 - The product flows in the carton in a controlled way thanks to the load cell system.
4 - The table goes down and the carton is evacuated to the stop point.
5 - The operator removes the box from the filling station with a suction manipulator.

The magnetic separator
During packaging operations, metal detectors/metal ejectors separate ferrous metal particles out of the material flow, even for small metal particles.
Metal detectors are designed for extremely precise detection and eliminate all magnetic or non-magnetic metal particles (iron, steel, stainless steel, aluminum) which may be mixed with powdery products in gravity flow. This equipment is ideal for guaranteeing the protection of both installations and production, especially for the chemical and food industries.
The vibrating lift table
Vibrating lift tables are units designed for tamping bulk products in containers such as cartons, drums and boxes, being transferred on roller conveyors. This equipment is used to densify the material being packed in the containers to increase the apparent density, or simply limit the slope that forms at the end of filling.
The height of the lifting table is adjustable by proximity sensors. After lowering, the load and the roller conveyor are weighed together. It is an ideal solution for filling installations.
Conveying stops
The stop is a fixed mechanical final element of a conveying line intended to halt or limit the accumulation of the transported container. This stop secures the end of the production line.
For the operation of the line, retractable intermediate stops (controlled by pneumatic cylinders) can be integrated.
Commercial weighing
Commercial weighing corresponds to the final stage of cardboard packaging of raw materials. At the end of the conveying line the box is positioned on a scale, also called the Non-Automatic Weighing Instrument (IPFNA). The operator carries out the control operations for obtaining the weight of the box, as well as the removal of the weighed loads.
The boxes are now ready to be palletized and stored.
Possible configurations of the PalBox®01 model:
| Ref. | Possible equipment | Functions | Advantages | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Choice 1 | P | Support tray | Holds the box while filling | Hygiene, height adjustment for adaptability to box format |
| C | Evacuation conveyor | Holding and evacuation of the box during packaging | Ergonomics, increased cadence | |
| Choice 2 | Net | Net weighing | Ensures the quantity of the product to be packaged | Accelerated rate (dosage in masked time) / may require double check weighing |
| Gross | Gross weighing | Weighing of the entire container and contents | Commercial weighing, traceability |
Our PalBox®01 packaging machine can be configured by modulating the possible basic equipment: choice 1 + choice 2.
