Things to Consider Before Buying a Carton Sealer
There are many manufacturing plants and shipping facilities that employee individuals to form, tape, pack, and seal a carton.
Depending on your business volume this may be the best solution for you, but for most companies this process is terribly
inefficient. Take a look below to find out what you need to consider while thinking about buying a carton sealer.
- Are your cartons all the same dimensions?
If your business needs require producing large amounts of the same size boxes, then a uniform carton sealer would be
the best option. However if you need to seal multiple sized boxes as they come, then you'll need a random carton
sealing machine.
- Operator or Operator free?
Carton sealers come in both semi-automatic and fully automatic varieties. Semi-automatic carton sealers require an operator
to fold the carton's top flaps while feeding the boxes into a semi-automatic sealing machine. In contrast, fully automatic
carton sealers do not require an operator; they are capable of assembling and sealing the cartons themselves. Both of these
types of machines do require an operator to adjust to the size of the incoming carton, as opposed to the random carton sealer
that will self adjust to differing sized cartons.
- What is Your Box Dimension?
Box dimension can be critical in determining what method of belt drive your carton sealer should have. If your box is
taller than it is wide, or if it is consistently under filled, a side belt drive carton sealer is the best option as it will
provide a smooth transport of your carton through the sealer.
- What is Your Available Floor Space?
A good thing to consider when buying a carton sealer is the physical size of the machine's footprint. Depending on how much
space you have available, you might need a machine with a smaller footprint to accommodate your needs.
