Gray & Company: Case sealing at candy manufacturer

Cases are discharged from the loader to the Wexxar Model WSH-06 case sealer. The filled cases discharge from the robot and round a short conveyor section to the sealer.

Nov 30, 2002

As the case enters on the machine conveyor, the front top minor flaps are plowed down and then a pneumatic arm kicks down the trailing minor flap. Glue is applied and the top majors are compressed and held until the next case enters the sealer.
