Case Erector: Vimco case erectors ensure precise and reliable opening of high-performance pre-glued American cases, guaranteeing production continuity, fast format changeover, and maximum care when handling the board.

They are designed to integrate seamlessly into automatic packaging lines and offer high efficiency, operational flexibility, and build quality.

  • Speed: up to 25 cases per minute
  • Bottom closing systems: hot-melt · adhesive tape
  • Materials: pre-glued corrugated American cases (FEFCO 201)
  • Format changeover: manual · automatic

Case Closers: Vimco case closers ensure precise and reliable case closing, guaranteeing production continuity, consistent quality, and maximum product protection during handling and transport.

Each Vimco case erector and case closer is sized according to the process specifications: case format, flaps closing system, and line speed. Below are the concrete advantages this choice brings to your line.

Hot-melt glue or tape.

The choice is made according to the customer’s specific requirements.

Perfectly squared case opening.

The squaring system ensures precise and stable opening across all formats within the range defined during the project phase. The case is not deformed during opening and reaches the filling stage already in the correct geometry.

Fast format

changeover through simple adjustments.

Pre-glued American case.

The machine works with this type of corrugated board case, including microflute board.

Possible applications

In which sectors do our machines operate?

Bakery & Biscuits

The bottom is closed with hot-melt or adhesive, in accordance with the logistics specifications for boxes and cartons of bakery products. The format range covers the sector's typical variants, and fast changeover enables seasonal references.

Pet Food

Kibble and products in pouches or doypacks require medium- to large-sized cases with bottom closure, as defined by transport specifications. The machine is directly combined with the case sealer downstream of product loading.

Ready Meals

Up to 25 cases per minute for ready meals, already packed in trays or flowpacks, on high-volume lines. Hot-melt bottom sealing ensures stability during transport and warehouse handling.

Chocolate & Confectionary

American cases for chocolate bars and confectionery products already packed in cartons or formed boxes. The bottom-closing system is defined according to the customer’s requirements: hot-melt for permanent closures; tape for cases intended for large-scale retail distribution.

Coffee & Tea

Cases for capsules and bags already packed, with hot-melt or tape bottom closure depending on transport specifications. The machine is integrated upstream of product loading without altering the flow of the existing line.

Dairy

American cases for dairy products in primary packaging. The manageable format range covers the sector's typical variants: from single packs to multipacks, with fast format changeover between references.

Baby Food

Cases for baby food products in bags or single-dose packs. Hot-melt bottom sealing ensures case stability throughout the entire logistics chain, from production to final distribution

Pasta, Rice & Cereals

Medium- to large-sized cases for pasta, rice, and cereals, already packed in inner bags. The simplicity of the cycle ensures operational continuity in high-volume production with standardised formats.

Personal & Home Care

Candles, air fresheners, and detergents intended for large-scale retail distribution require tape-sealed cases, so they can be opened for inspection without damage. Format changeover manages product reference variants.

Non-Food/ Industria

Fasteners and components for high-volume production with standardised formats. The simplicity of the cycle ensures operational continuity between formats.
