Model 330KDP Case Erector / Printer / Bottom Sealer

M330kdp case erector printer bottom sealer

The Model 330 KDP is a case erector / bottom sealer with a built-in printer module that prints logos, batch codes, product ID or bar codes onto cases during high speed case forming and sealing. Cases are printed in line, automatically, with no special equipment or set-up required.

Benefits include:

Model 330kdp case erector printer bottom sealer

Lower cost per case - One print head prints side and end of case in one pass
Less floor space required - Eliminates the need for multiple printers and turning devices to print multiple sides of cases
Reduced maintenance - Only one print head system to maintain

Model 330KDP Color touch screen gives you total control

Color touch screen gives you total control

The color display shows real-time operating data and allows independent operation of all functions, diagnostics, and changeover settings. Its simple, step-by-step sequences simplify set up and operation. Non-contact sensors monitor machine operation and ensure precise timing of each operating sequence.

Model 360KDP Large capacity, easy load case magazine

Large capacity, easy load case magazine

The self-indexing auxiliary case magazine assures a continuous case supply to the erector. As each stack is used, another moves into position maximizing time between refills. The low level design makes it easy to refill without lifting cases.

Model 330KDP Case feed designed for smooth operation

Case feed designed for smooth operation

This case erector has self-adjusting, spring loaded grippers assure proper case feed from uneven stacks of warped or band-marked cases. Their unique "floating" design allows them to operate independently to grip each case firmly and provide a consistent and reliable case feed.

Model 330KDP Reliable case erecting mechanism

Reliable case erecting mechanism

Production-proven since 1990, A-B-C's cam-operated vacuum pullback case opener design is superior in running less-than-perfect corrugated. This method utilizes dual vacuum grippers- lower grippers provide solid compression to hold the case firmly while the upper grippers pull the case open.

Model 330KDP Positive flap folding and case transfer

Positive flap folding and case transfer

The major case flaps are gripped firmly as the heavy-duty rear flap tucker folds the inner flap, ensuring efficient flap folding and sealing. The continuous motion main drive powers the walking beam case transfer that squares cases as they travel. The main drive has a sealed bearing linkage that ensures high speed performance for the long haul.

Model 360KDP Shock absorbing case compression ram

Shock absorbing case compression ram

The case compression mandrel is equipped with shock absorbers to eliminate machine stress, to reduce maintenance and ensure long machine life.
