Topload and Sideload Case Packer

Topload and Sideload Case Packer

The INMES Robotic Topload Case Packer is designed for maximum flexibility and gentle product handling. It is the ideal solution for products that require precise orientation or are too fragile for mechanical pushing, such as pouches, flow-packs, or irregularly shaped items.

The Topload Process

Using high-speed Delta or 6-Axis robots, the system picks products from the infeed conveyor and “toploads” them into pre-formed cases or trays. This “Pick & Place” method allows for complex packing patterns and multiple layers.

Gentle Handling

Ideal for delicate primary packaging.

⁠Vision System Integration

Can be equipped with cameras to identify, orient, and quality-check products on the fly.

Multi-Product Capability

Easily handles different SKUs by simply changing the robotic end-of-arm tool (gripper).

Seamless Synergy

Works perfectly with the INMES Robotic Case Erector.

Overview: INMES Sideload Case Packer

The INMES Sideload Case Packer is a high-speed, robust solution typically used for rigid products like cartons, boxes, or cans. This system stacks and pushes the product group horizontally into a side-opened case, making it one of the fastest packing methods available.

The Sideload Process

Products are accumulated and stacked into the required matrix. Once the group is formed, a servo-driven pusher slides the entire load into the side of the case. The side flaps are then folded and sealed with tape or hot-melt glue.

High-Speed Performance

Designed for high-volume production lines where cycle time is critical.

⁠Compact Engineering

Typically features a linear footprint, saving valuable space on the factory floor.

⁠Structural Integrity

Excellent for dense, heavy loads that require a tight fit within the case.

Simplified Mechanics

Fewer moving parts compared to complex robotic pickers, ensuring high reliability and easy maintenance.
