Bosch's CUT 1405 is not a radical change. Radical change was not needed. The CUT 120 is one of its most successful products. The new horizontal cartoning machine's improvements provide higher flexibility and the latest servo and safety technology at reduced costs.
"With the new CUT 1405, we are demonstrating our expertise in the area of secondary packaging. As with all our cartoning machines, this new development is based on standard modules that can be flexibly combined, depending on product and packaging type. At the same time, line suitability is granted," Daniel Sanwald, product manager at Bosch Packaging Technology, explained.
Some of its new features are:
CUT 1405safely and gently handles different carton sizes and packages a wide variety of primary packaging such as bottles, vials, syringes, ampoules, tubes, blisters and trays as well as bags, stick packs and sachets in folding cartons. Its obvious use is in pharmaceuticals. It is also especially suitable for packaging cosmetic and food products.
Inserts to single and combination products, such as spoons, or outserts, can be integrated into the modular in-feed system and modules for tuck-in, glue and combination closures may be exchanged quickly.
Cartons are transported into the magazine by a lifting motion of the rake, which prevents them from getting caught. Due to its patented folding carton carrier, individual cartons maintain their shape as the intermittent transport system moves them through the machine. This prevents damage to the product and ensures precise packaging results.
The control cabin contains fewer hardware components to reduce maintenance and the human machine interface allow for easy handling. Errors are identified and resolved readily with an automatic troubleshooting guide. All format data is individually stored, enabling easy and quick format changeovers and a safe re-start of the machine.
Optional serialisation, aggregation and tamper-evident modules ensure additional safety, taking into account current guidelines and safety standards.
