Douglas Machine Inc: High-speed carton bundling for OTC and personal care products

With incoming carton speeds up to 400/min. and bundling speeds up to 100/min., Douglas Machine’s high-speed carton stacking and shrink bundling system combines the company’s Velocity Stacker for cartons and Contour M-50 shrink bundler to produce bundle counts that are conveniently sized to match shelf re-stocking quantities.

The patented Velocity stacker off loads stacked cartons, splits them into two pack patterns, and delivers the patterns to the Contour M-50 dual stream shrink bundler. The combination of high speed stacking technology and single film roll/dual stream shrink bundling produces a high-speed low-cost package.
