FAQ: Case Sealers
-
What is a case sealer?
A case sealer is a machine that closes and seals corrugated cases. They are available in semi-automated and fully automated varieties and expedite the case sealing process in production lines.
-
Are INSITE’s case sealers fully automatic?
Yes, INSITE’s case sealers qualify as high speed, fully automatic sealers.
-
How do I determine “machine hand”?
INSITE determines machine hand by standing on the operator/HMI side of the box erector machine and observing the direction the cases travel. If the case blank moves from right to left as it’s erected and sealed, you are looking at a left-hand machine. If the case blank moves from left to right as it’s erected and sealed, you are looking at a right-hand machine. (See diagram.)
-
Does 'case hand' matter with INSITE’s case sealers?
No, our sealers can run left- and right-hand cases on the same machine.
-
What type of hot-melt glue does INSITE recommend?
INSITE recommends HB Fuller Advantra PHC 9256 or Henkel Technomelt Supra 106M.
