Case Sealing Solutions

Case Sealer unit accepts randomly spaced unsealed cases for sealing operations. The unit folds minor and major top flaps of cardboard cases and secures with tape while side belts “drive” cases through the system. Our standard unit utilizes tape for sealing the cases however we do offer a hot melt glue version of the case sealing unit for applications that require a more durable seal. 

Our Case sealer is equipped to accept multiple different size cases with easy adjustment for quick changes without the requirement of additional tools when changing over from case to case.  We also offer a random case sealer unit that is able to accept different sized cases on a random basis.  The unit is able to automatically detect the case size entering the unit and adjust for each case size to be sealed on the fly without any adjustments required. 

Our case sealing equipment comes standard with the following features:
  • Frame is continuous TIG welded 304 stainless steel utilizing solid (non-tubing) frame & crossmembers
  • Stainless Steel full interlocked guarding
