AFA Systems has shipped a reconditioned Klockner-Bartelt Cartoner

AFA has recently shipped a reconditioned Klockner-Bartelt Horizontal Cartoner. AFA added a sliding bucket automatic infeed system to the cartoner to provide automation to the customer's packaging line. To ensure high speeds and accurate carton placement an AFA designed rotary feeder was retrofitted to the cartoner. AFA also integrated count sensors and open flap detection sensors. These project examples show AFA’s expert capability in retrofitting and reconditioning used cartoners. The end result of the project was an efficient and cost effective solution for the customer.
