                  • Pop-Out Carton

                  • Pop-Out Carton with Surprising Development

                    The packaging solution pop-out carton corresponds to a complex box construction which consists of two pieces. The lower part is erected without the use of binders and is provided with a dimensionally stable hood. Due to the high recovery forces of the lower part of the blank it jumps into the state of a plate as soon as the hood is removed.

                    The automation solution includes forming and holding of the lower part, the loading of such products for example through multi-head weighers, shaping and gluing of the hood, followed by the marriage and finally handing over to a labeling which fixes both parts to each other.

                    The form of packaging is possible as 4, 6 - and 8 - corner variant.
