Soco System's Case Sealer Improves Efficiency, Saves Costs for Printer

Denmark-based Kailow, a printing and digital services company, recently invested in two Soco System case sealers to fulfill a large magazine printing order.

The packaging lines, featuring the case sealers, are placed in the bookbinding department ensuring efficiency improvement and minimizing manual lifts. The packaging line covers the entire logistics from printed matters to closed cartons - ready for palletizing.

The core of the packaging lines is a semiautomatic case sealer for simultaneous top and bottom tape sealing. This feature is particularly interesting for Kailow as they cannot use cartons with automatic bottom due to the weight of the contents. This means that Kailow saves two manual handling processes for each carton (bottom and top tape sealing) when using the case sealer from Soco System. Furthermore, this ensures packaging savings as cartons with automatic bottom are significantly more expensive than regular folding cartons.

Mobile packaging lineMobile packaging lineAfter the case sealer, the cartons are accumulated on a flexi conveyor system. The conveyor system is designed as an adjustable boomerang requiring a minimum of space. The boomerang brings the carton back to the operator, thus minimizing the number of steps. Finally, the packaging line is equipped with castors for easy relocation in the production.

The total investment per packaging line was less then DKK 50,000 including delivery, installation, and commissioning and it was, therefore, not a difficult decision for Kailow to make the packing shop more efficient and ergonomic. A few weeks later, the system was delivered and put into operation.
