Equipment Layout Drawing
Core Competitive Strengths of the HC-600 Integrated Cartoning System
1. Full-Process Integrated Automation Minimizing Manual Intervention
This all-in-one carton unfolding, loading and sealing machine completes the entire cartoning workflow without repeated manual handling: blank carton feeding and layered stacking (maximum 5 layers), carton turnover and shaping, partition board embedding, drug case loading, carton positioning calibration, bottom hinge folding, adhesive tape sealing and finished carton discharge. Equipped with an extended-capacity blank carton storage bin, the equipment drastically reduces manual refilling frequency, substantially cutting labor overhead for pharmaceutical syrup packaging lines.
2. Intelligent PLC & Multi-Authority HMI Centralized Control Architecture
An industrial-grade PLC acts as the core control unit of this pharmaceutical cartoner, paired with a hierarchical-authority touchscreen HMI human-machine interface. Three tiered access permissions (Operator, Process Technician, Administrator) are configured to regulate parameter modification authority, covering servo motion parameter calibration, jog debugging, real-time production data statistics, batch counting, fault retrieval and maintenance indexing. The system supports one-click servo origin homing, independent activation/deactivation of individual functional modules and real-time PLC I/O signal monitoring, enabling precise, traceable and standardized production management for pharmaceutical packaging operations.
3. Multi-Station Detection & Comprehensive Intelligent Safety Alarm Mechanism
The HC-600 high-speed carton packing machine is fitted with mechanical and photoelectric sensing components deployed across all functional stations to monitor blank carton presence, partition board stock volume, adhesive tape residual quantity, vacuum suction execution status and cylinder travel limit positions. In the event of material depletion, servo drive malfunction, compressed air pressure insufficiency, safety door disengagement or emergency stop trigger, the system instantaneously activates visual and acoustic alarms and initiates automatic emergency shutdown to safeguard production integrity. A complete archive of 42 categorized fault alarms records all operational anomalies, facilitating rapid troubleshooting and scheduled equipment maintenance.
4. Broad Specification Compatibility & Efficient Format Changeover Design
Optimized for 5-layer BC corrugated cartons (thickness: 5–6.5 mm, grammage: 580 g), this GMP-compliant cartoning machine enables rapid format switching via adjustable guardrails, handwheel regulators and relocatable positioning bolt holes. Operators can flexibly calibrate carton width, length, workstation vertical height and tape sealing positions without extensive disassembly, accommodating multi-specification medicinal carton production for diversified syrup packaging lines.
5. Stabilized Pneumatic & Electrical Systems for Sustained Continuous Production
The integrated pneumatic system operates within a stable pressure range of 0.6–0.8 MPa under centralized solenoid valve control; cylinder actuation timing parameters are customizable via the HMI panel to optimize motion smoothness and operational efficiency. The three-phase five-wire electrical system adopts a 380 V, 50 Hz power supply, fully compliant with the national standard GB/T 5226.L-1996, with a maximum total installed power of 7.5 kW. Independent servo drives govern carton stacking, pushing, turnover, blank carton suction and partition board suction axes, delivering low-vibration, consistent high-speed operation at a rated throughput of 250 cartons per minute.
6. Standardized Low-Maintenance Framework Aligned with Pharmaceutical Hygiene Standards
The HC-600 carton packing machine features modular mechanical assemblies with standardized maintenance schedules categorized into daily, weekly, monthly, semi-annual and annual routines. Reciprocating sliding components require twice-daily application of N68 guide oil; rotating and oscillating assemblies with oil ports or grease cups are lubricated with N68 machine oil twice daily; cam grooves are replenished with lithium grease bi-monthly, while oil nozzles receive monthly grease refills. High-wear consumables including suction cups, timing belts and air filter elements are assigned standardized replacement cycles. Polished stainless steel conveying surfaces facilitate effortless sanitization, fully satisfying the hygiene requirements stipulated by pharmaceutical GMP regulations.

Standard Operational Flow for Pharmaceutical Syrup Packaging Lines
![HC-600 Automatic Box Packing Integrated Machine 2]()
1.Blank Carton Feeding: Empty corrugated cartons are conveyed from upstream processing equipment to the stacking workstation.
2.Layered Carton Stacking: Servo-driven lifting assemblies stack blank cartons into uniform 5-layer batches.
3.Carton Pushing & Positioning Turnover: Stacked carton batches are transferred to the turnover station for precise alignment and downward flipping.
4.Partition Board Embedding: Vacuum manipulators extract manually pre-stored partition boards and insert them into pre-unfolded cartons.
5.Carton Unfolding & Bottom Shaping: Robotic suction arms open flat blank cartons, with pneumatic cylinders folding carton bottom hinges into place.
6.Medicinal Case Loading: Servo manipulators grip stacked syrup medicinal cases and load them into shaped cartons.
7.Carton Alignment Calibration: Dual-side conveying belts and bottom roller assemblies calibrate carton posture to guarantee sealing precision.
8.Tape Sealing Operation: Pneumatic pressing cylinders compress carton flaps, followed by upper and lower tape assemblies to complete full carton sealing.
9.Finished Carton Discharge: Fully sealed finished cartons are conveyed downstream to subsequent packaging equipment.
HMI Intelligent Operation & Hierarchical User Permission Management System
The touchscreen human-machine interface of the HC-600 integrated cartoning machine integrates six core functional modules: Main Operation Interface, Parameter Configuration Panel, PLC I/O Real-Time Monitoring, Fault Alarm Record Repository, User Permission Management and Forced Output Debugging Module. Multi-tiered user access control prevents unauthorized alteration of core production parameters. All servo motion profiles, cylinder delay timing, vacuum suction duration and product formula parameters for distinct carton specifications are stored and retrievable with one-click recall, significantly shortening format changeover downtime for pharmaceutical manufacturers.
The I/O monitoring module visualizes real-time input and output signals of all sensors, solenoid valves and servo brakes, supporting forced output testing during equipment commissioning and post-fault maintenance diagnosis, substantially elevating packaging line troubleshooting efficiency.
Standardized Safety Protocols & Startup/Shutdown Operating Procedures
Equipped with comprehensive safety interlock configurations including emergency stop pushbuttons, safety door interlock switches, vacuum pump overload protection and servo drive fault self-locking, the GMP-compliant HC-600 cartoning machine eliminates latent operational hazards. Strict standardized operating procedures are enforced: compressed air supply shall be activated prior to power energization; no-load jogging inspection must be completed before initiating automatic production; blank cartons, partition boards and adhesive tape shall be replenished in real time during continuous operation; the emergency stop function shall be triggered immediately upon material jams or abnormal operational noise. Upon production completion, operators shall execute equipment power cutoff, discontinue compressed air supply and conduct full surface sanitization with alcohol-based cleaning agents to sustain pharmaceutical-grade hygiene standards.
