Eastey, a manufacturer of shrink packaging equipment, automated case erectors, tapers, and material handling solutions, is using PACK EXPO Connects to introduce the ERX-15 Automatic Case Erector designed to efficiently form and seal the bottom of corrugated cases in a single pass.
The ERX-15 Case Erector from Eastey is designed to automatically erect and seal the bottoms of corrugated cases at production rates up to 15 cases per minute. The ERX-15 is designed to keep production and maintenance efforts at a minimum while providing fast, efficient case erecting, making the ERX-15 an ideal alternative to manual case forming.
The ERX-15 Case Erector enables a single operator to form, seal, and pack corrugate cases. Operation is simple: load up to 200 cases in the case magazine hopper and set the system to run or jog mode. Separators release the leading blank case where a series of eight vacuum suction cups hold the case in a properly formed square position. After a set of stationary flap folding bars fold both minor and major bottom flaps, the case is then transitioned and the bottom is sealed with Eastey’s proven EX tape head.
