Forming Station FM410
The box is positioned on a centering device. A mechanical system aligns the box so that it enters the forming station correctly.

Prep Station
The system is provided with 3 prep stations: the operators position the items to be packed on trays and once the trays are ready, the operator releases the box onto the main roller conveyor directed to the CM410S box closing station.

The boxes containing the items are then transferred to the CM410S closing station. The CM410S was designed to close boxes FEFCO 410.

Labelling Station
Once the box is closed, a roller conveyor moves it to the labeling station. A device that automatically adjusts to all box sizes applies the label with all the relevant data on top and on the side of the box. The box is now ready to be transferred to the palettizing station.

Palettizing Station
The 6-axis rail palletizing robot picks up the box from the picking area. Depending on the type of box, it can be arranged in a vertical position in one of the baskets or palletized in one of the two available roller conveyors. Once the boxes are in place, an operator clears the area via unloading gateways.
