How to Choose an Automatic Cartoning Machine for Secondary Packaging

For manufacturers looking for a flexible horizontal solution, the Multi-Function Automatic Cartoning Machine ZH-120 is designed for applications including food, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, electronics and consumer goods.

What to Consider When Choosing a Cartoner?

Machine speed is important, but it is not the only factor. Product type, carton dimensions, production capacity and line configuration all need to match the application.

The product itself determines the feeding method. Pouches, blister packs, bottles, cosmetic containers and other packaged goods may require different handling arrangements.

Carton specifications are equally important. The machine should match the carton size, material and closing method while allowing practical changeovers between different SKUs.

Production speed should also be evaluated against the entire line rather than as an isolated number. A cartoner that runs at 50–100 boxes/min may perform differently depending on product feeding, carton format and upstream equipment.
