The Vari-Pitch CFS, ST and DF are straight-line carton closers for Cover to Flange Seal (CFS) cartons, Seal Tuck (ST) cartons, and Dust Flap (DF) cartons. They feature Kliklok’s patented variable pitch technology, which uses pop-up lugs to create infinitely variable flight centers. This combines the benefits of lugged carton control and random infeed timing in a full servo motor platform. The constant carton control eliminates the inherent slip and timing issues of lugless carton closers.
