BEL 505G4 Semi-Automatic Case Erector
This semi-automatic case forming and packing station is a compact and ergonomic packaging solution ideal for replacing manual hand packing. The machine dynamically folds the bottom of the case and holds it in place for the operator to begin packing. This allows for quick and ergonomic case packing, much more efficient than a traditional hand pack line. When combined with a BEL case sealer, it allows one operator to form, pack and seal corrugated cases in a single operation.
Smooth and Precise Operation
The BEL 505G4 features many innovations for smooth, precise case forming. Electro-pneumatics provide a quiet, high-precision fold, allowing the machine to excel in applications featuring more unique or less traditional case styles, and improved electronic folding control results in a more effective fold, especially for light and recycled corrugated.
The manual switches have also been upgraded to non-contact sensors, allowing for a higher-precision fold, fewer wear parts on the machine, easier maintenance and better performance on softer recycled corrugated.
The BEL 505G4 can be paired with a BEL 150 series machine to create a WFPS 5150 Form, Pack and Seal System.
The BEL 505G4 is ideal for a number of industries, including the dairy products, personal care products, craft beer, pharmaceutical, chemical, and floriculture and cut flower industries.
Features & Capabilities
- Ergonomic 2-Handed PackingForms and holds the case in place for quick, easy and ergonomic 2-handed case packing, increasing operator efficiency and ergonomics.
- Precision Dynamic Flap FoldingMechanical flap folding ensures cases are consistently square, even with softer or recycled corrugated. The dynamic flap-folding system power folds all bottom flaps.
- Compact DesignSmall machine footprint saves valuable floor space and removes the time- and space-consuming process of pre-forming cases.
- Smooth and Quiet OperationElectro-pneumatic switches and folders provide a precise and quiet fold, which also reduces the number of wear parts on the machine.
- Quick ChangeoverOn-machine pictorial guides with dual lead screws for easy size changes from either side. Tool-less case size changes are simple and quick, with change points accessible from both operational sides.
- Programmable Logic Controller with Non-Contact SensorsCombined with non-contact photo sensors, it improves folding reliability and precision. The sensors let the machine handle recycled and light corrugated with high reliability and fewer wear parts.
- Roller DeckFormed cases are positioned on a roller deck for easy loading and transfer to the case sealer.
- Positive Mechanical Case Hold-DownKeeps the box in place for hands-free loading.
- Lasting PerformanceCorrosion-resistant and paint-free construction guards against machine wear and extends machine life.
- On-Machine InstructionsUser-friendly pictorial guides and color-coded labeling for convenient operation and size changes.
