Support 24/7 Operation
Equipped with high precision servo systems and a stable structural design, our fully automatic wrap around packaging machines enable round-the-clock operation, as this process requires minimal manual intervention. Furthermore, our machines are equipped with overload protection and emergency stop functions to further ensure safety, allowing you to promptly identify issues and minimize downtime.
Applications of Neocarton ’s Wrap Around Case Packer
Wrapping machines can be used for secondary packaging of food products. For example, they are suitable for bagged or boxed items such as cookies and condiments, and support various packaging configurations. From a safety perspective, our wrapping machines are constructed from food-grade stainless steel (304/316L) to meet the hygiene requirements of food packaging.
For products such as water, beverages, and dairy products, our automated wrap around packaging machines can automatically group bottles or cans and gently place them onto cardboard sheets for wrapping. This helps minimize shaking during transport, ensuring your products arrive safely in all regions.
Personal care products with irregular shapes, such as shampoo and cleaning agents, can also be packed using wrap around case packers. Through optimal placement, we ensure efficient use of case space and meet the stability requirements for transportation.
Medicine cases and medical supplies in the healthcare sector can also be efficiently packed and transported using stretch wrapping machines. The precise packaging process meets the healthcare industry’s stringent requirements for packaging reliability.
Small appliances and electronic components also require this type of machine for packaging. Our equipment can be adjusted to accommodate different packaging specifications and case sizes, offering greater flexibility to meet the packaging needs of various electronic products.

What is a Wrap Around Case Packer?
Wrap around cartoning machines are normally used in the secondary packaging stage of product processing. The term “wrap around” refers to the specific process where the product is placed inside the carton first, followed by the folding and packaging of the cardboard. Under pressure from the machine, the cardboard conforms to the shape of the product and wraps around it, after which operations such as gluing and sealing are completed.
Compared to case packaging methods that previously form the carton before packaging, this approach leaves fewer gaps inside the carton, thereby reducing material waste and saving you costs.
How Does a Wrap Around Case Packer Work?
First, the wrap around case packer retrieves cardboard sheets from the blank hopper and places them on the workstation. At the same time, one or more sets of your products must be placed on the cardboard sheets that have already been laid flat on the machine platform, either by a robotic arm or manually.
Next, the products and cardboard move forward along the conveyor belt. During this process, the case packer folds the cardboard to form a sealed carton.
Once the case is formed, the machine seals and edges it at the gluing station using adhesive or tape. It then flattens the case further to cure the adhesive, ensuring the package is sturdy. Afterward, your packaged products are ready for shipment.
Wrap Around Packer Structure
Feeding System
The feeding system of the automatic wrap around case packer directly conveys previously packaged products from upstream to the packing area, grouping and arranging them according to your packing requirements. During the actual packing process, the products can be directly pushed onto or placed on corrugated cardboard, ensuring an efficient and stable production rhythm.
Conveyor System
The conveyor system is a critical component for transporting products and corrugated boards, as well as connecting different workstations. It is typically controlled by a servo system to ensure smooth and orderly operation at high speeds.
Corrugated Board Forming System
In a wrap around case packer, the primary function of the corrugated board forming system is to fold the corrugated board and wrap it around the product.
Under the control of the servo system, the various stations of this system can complete this process in an orderly manner, achieving high-precision forming and minimizing voids inside the carton. Thereby it can ensure the stability of product placement during transport.
Gluing Unit
Wrap around case packers are typically equipped with a gluing unit, which bonds and seals the carton to ensure the structural integrity of the formed carton.
Wrap Around Case Packer Vs Regular Case Packer
What are the Different Types Of Conventional Case Packers?
Unlike the wrap around case packing machine we mentioned earlier, conventional case packers can be divided into top loading and side loading models among others, generally.
To help you better understand, the operation can be simply concluded as the follows: during actual operation, the carton will be formed firstly, and then the product is inserted from different directions.
