Horizontal cartoner

This base machine called ZetVITE is used to erect a pre-glued carton (case) in such a way that a tube is formed. In a further step, the product, a bag or a carton base is pushed horizontally into the formed tube. The packaging is sealed in the final step.

 

The sale of spare parts as well as the service of these machines is now completely guaranteed by TecSup GmbH. This step became necessary after the Zeiler AG company sold the ZetEngineering division to the Migros subsidiary Limmattdruck AG, which in turn was sold to the RLC Packaging Group. In 2018, ZetEngineering was closed without replacement by the RLC.
