Model 70 Partition Opener / Inserter

The Model 70 partitioner automatically opens and inserts multi-celled lightweight chipboard partitions into RSC, HSC or Tablock cases utilizing efficient servo technology that ensures positive, high speed reliability. This efficient machine is operated by A-B-C's Intelligent Control electronics, to ensure accurate opening and positive placement of partitions into the case. The compact size and in-line design make this partition inserter easy to install between case erector and packer.

The Dual Head Model 70 delivers double the volume of the single-head model for maximum performance and flexibility on your line. Servos drive the partition indexing/opening/inserting plus case indexing and positioning for top precision and reliability. Lateral stabilizers square the partition after opening to “lock” the partition’s interlocking panels and ensure smooth insertion into the waiting case or tray.
