Generally, cartoning machines can be used alone or connected with packaging machines and other equipment to form a production line. Nowadays, there are many types of cartoning machines on the market with different functions. According to their structure, they can be divided into vertical and horizontal types. Among them, vertical cartoning machines have a faster packaging speed, but a smaller packaging range, generally only for single products such as medicine boards.
Considering the characteristics of vertical cartoning, vertical cartoning machines are very suitable for cartoning fragile and valuable items. Compared with traditional horizontal cartoning machines, they can better meet the packaging requirements of special items. Vertical cartoning machines can be divided into semi-active and active types according to different models, and continuous or intermittent cartoning methods can be selected according to production needs.
Moreover, horizontal cartoning machines can package a variety of products, such as medicines, food, hardware, auto parts, etc. According to reports, the horizontal cartoning machine is a high-tech product that integrates machinery, electricity, gas and light. It is mainly used for cartoning and packaging aluminum-plastic medicine plates, medicine bottles, cosmetics, poker, electronics, daily necessities and similar items. It has automatic completion, folding of instruction manuals, opening of paper boxes, cartoning of items, printing of batch numbers, sealing of boxes and other operations. This machine can be used alone or in conjunction with other equipment to form a complete production line.
