Product Overview

The KOMAL GT10 Automatic Pick-and-Place Case Packer is an integrated end-of-line packaging system designed for bottled water and beverage production facilities.

The system consists of three coordinated units:

  • KX10 Automatic Carton Erector: Automatically opens and forms corrugated cartons.
  • GT10 Automatic Pick-and-Place Case Packer: Groups bottles and uses a pneumatic gripping mechanism to pick up and load them into prepared cartons.
  • FX10 Automatic Carton Sealer: Automatically seals filled cartons with adhesive tape.

The GT10 case packing unit uses side bottle feeding, a three-stage pressure-reduction system, and a servo-driven positioning mechanism to provide accurate product grouping and smooth bottle handling.

With a packaging speed of up to 18 cartons per minute, the integrated system supports carton erecting, bottle grouping, pick-and-place loading, and carton sealing, reducing manual packaging operations and improving packaging consistency.

Key Features

  • Integrated Carton Packaging System: Combines automatic carton erecting, bottle loading, and carton sealing.
  • Automatic Pick-and-Place Loading: Pneumatic gripping heads lift grouped bottles and place them into prepared cartons.
  • Side Bottle Feeding: Compact side-entry design helps reduce the space required for upstream conveying.
  • Three-Stage Pressure Reduction: Reduces bottle pressure before gripping to improve alignment and handling stability.
  • IGUS Linear Positioning System: German IGUS linear guide components support accurate and smooth positioning.
  • Siemens PLC Control System: PLC and touchscreen control support operation, speed adjustment, monitoring, and fault diagnostics.
  • Delta Servo Drive System: Two sets of Delta servo motors and controllers provide coordinated movement.
  • Automatic Speed Adjustment: Conveyor and drive controls adjust machine operation according to incoming product flow.
  • Automatic Product Detection: Detects insufficient bottle supply, carton misalignment, and interrupted packaging conditions.
  • Safety Protection: Automatic stopping functions help protect operators and equipment.
  • Multiple Operating Modes: Supports manual and automatic carton feeding and gripping operations.
  • Low-Maintenance Design: Selected pneumatic and linear motion components reduce routine lubrication requirements.
  • Durable Construction: SUS304 stainless steel bottle-grouping components and a painted carbon steel machine frame.
