VANNPAX continuously evolves, and our in-house engineering team is always looking for a new challenge. We custom design and manufacture packaging systems and machines, providing solutions to our international customer footprint on an ongoing basis.
Our design team designed the prevalent 1002 cartoning machine which is currently in very high demand. This machine allows you to manually place your product in a display carton after which it is placed on the infeed of the machine. The carton is then automatically glued and closed by the machine.
In 2020 VANNPAX added the 1003 Self-Locking Tray Erector machine to its ever-growing range of customized machines. The 1003 can handle between 15 -20 cartons per minute.
Our engineering team designs new machines to ensure productivity and cost saving measures for our customers. Our goal is simple but effective, to provide a workable solution the address the customer’s specific requirement.

1003 – Vannpax Self-Lock Tray Erector
It is an automatic self-lock tray forming machine. Carton magazines need to be filled manually and the machine will stop automatically if the minimum level sensor is activated. During the run cycle vacuum suckers collect the flat tray and move it into the forming section. Short tray flaps are folded 90˚ by the stage 1 pusher. Once completed the tray is pushed into the stage 2 position where flaps are folded into their lock positions. The cycle repeats itself once the tray pushers are in the front position.
