MG America featured the new GSL20 horizontal and the robotic GTL30 vertical case packers. Both are mechatronic designs automated by ELAU’s PacDrive system and designed for reliability, speed, ease of use and maintainability.

The GSL20’s advanced servo automation assures positive case handling, opening and sealing at speeds up to 20 cpm depending on format. In total, 6 PacDrive servo axes are controlled by the company’s economical new PacDrive C200 automation controller.

The advanced design requires no size parts when size changeover occurs. Adjustments are made using a combination of control panel inputs and handwheels. Only the GSL20’s product infeed pusher plate and hopper must be replaced to accommodate customer product configurations.

Ideally suited for pharmaceutical and cosmetics packaging, the GSL20 can be equipped with either a color touchscreen HMI or with an industrial PC running Windows XP and CFR 21 Part 11 conforming software from the builder, MG2
