The Compact R has a 90-degree configuration but still retains Bradman Lake's FCC Flexible rubber fingers and has an extremely reliable turning system. It is designed for those companies who want a very small footprint machine operating at speeds of up to 60 cartons per minute
Machine operation
Filled cartons pass at random from a packing conveyor into the closer at a rate determined by the speed of the infeed belts. Their covers are plowed down and are then gently gripped between the twin overhead conveyors consisting of a series of patented rubber fingers and table top conveyors. The front flap of each carton is sealed, with hot melt adhesive, and the carton is then turned 90º. The cartons are conveyed into the second section of the machine and the end flaps are sealed in a similar manner.
Standard Machine Features
