AXIOM ARC CASE & TRAY PACKER

Ultra-Fast Continuous Motion Case & Tray Packer

The Axiom ARC case packer redefines high-speed case packing, delivering exceptional product stability at speeds up to 80 cases per minute with continuous motion technology. Unlike intermittent-motion systems, Axiom ARC ensures that cases never stop moving from loading to discharge, providing seamless, high-throughput performance. With advanced servo-driven infeed solutions, including Smartrak® and Slipstream™ metering, it optimizes gentle product handling, pack pattern accuracy, and surge control—especially for unstable or odd-shaped products. Designed for maximum speed and efficiency, Axiom ARC is the preferred solution for demanding, high-volume secondary packaging lines requiring precision without compromise.

Axiom ARC Key Features

ARC Loader Innovations
  • Can contain products on all four sides during loading for maximum product stability and control
  • Fewer parts and overhead design provide better access and faster changeover
Packaging Material Capabilities
  • High-speed, pre-load case setup allows case/tray to support products while loading
  • Optionally run heavy KD paperboard blanks
Infeed Solutions for Unique Products

High-speed lane divider gently handles round, rectangular, oval and irregularly shaped products while ensuring balanced product lanes

Flexibility & Durability
  • Can run small across machine dimensions
  • Infeed rail holding force can withstand high product pressure while rail adjustability fits your product-specific recipes
Accuracy & Performance

Perform most changeovers automatically through touch-screen HMI with pre-programmed recipes and servo motor precision

Increased Productivity
  • Continuous motion from product loading to discharge maximizes throughput
  • High speeds up to 80 cases per minute

Infeed & Metering Performance

  • Smartrak II mass flow infeed design eliminates soft bottle bridging and removes gaps for pack pattern accuracy and continuous product flow
  • Slipstream pinless metering options run both stable and unstable products smoothly at maximum speeds

Expanded Capabilities

  • Continuous-motion case squaring and sealing produces squared cases at high speeds
  • Precise flap gluing, folding and continuous motion compression – no flight chain camming
  • Handles corrugate and heavy KD paperboard material
