What is a case erector?
A case erector machine can improve the speed, efficiency, and savings of end-of-line packaging systems by aiding in the forming and sealing of corrugated boxes. With operator assistance or complete automation, case erectors open, form, and seal cartons, which can then be filled, closed, and labeled.
Carton erectors can operate in tandem with other packaging machines, providing a complete packing and packaging solution. At Hughes Enterprises, we offer a range of case erector and packer brands to customize your end-of-line packaging process to meet your needs.
High-speed case erector and automatic case erector systems
To bring your production to the next level, implement a high-speed or fully automatic case erector. These machines are available with features that improve speed, allow for easy changeovers, or increase flexibility in your operations. Semi-automatic case erectors and even robotic and specialty case formers are available too, so you’re sure to find the right machine to match your product and your processes.
Our selection of case sealer manufacturers will support your production and streamline your operations, saving you time and money.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How Does a Case Erector Machine Work?
Case erectors take folded or collapsed boxes and automatically form them into consistently shaped cases. These machines also seal the bottom securely to prepare the cases for packing.
The process generally starts with loading the collapsed boxes into the magazine. These carton blanks are picked up by the case erector’s vacuum-powered suction cups, automatically forming their shape as they are introduced to the conveyor belt. The sides will then be folded, and the bottom part will be sealed as each case is moved through the erector.
Q: What Types of Cases Can a Case Erector Machine Handle?
Both automatic and semi-automatic case erectors can take collapsed corrugated boxes and form them into ready-to-pack cases.
Fully automatic random case sealers can handle random-sized boxes autonomously. On the other hand, operator involvement may be needed to run cases with varying heights and widths in semi-automatic case erectors.
Q: Can Case Erectors Be Customized To Handle Specific Types of Cases or Packaging Needs?
Leading manufacturers of case erectors today include thoughtfully designed standard and optional features in case erector machines. These allow for easy case loading, increased speed and reliability, and effortless maintenance for a wide range of applications. On top of that, case erectors come in innovative designs that support painless integration with other loading, packing, and sealing equipment.
