CS25 Case Sealer

Find the Automated Case Erector for Your Line

Introducing the CS25 Case Sealer

Pearson’s CS25 Case Sealers top seal a wide range of case sizes with either pressure-sensitive tape or hot melt adhesive at speeds of 25 to 42 cases per minute depending on case length.

All of Pearson Packaging’s case sealers are designed to accommodate a wide range of box styles and sizes for production rates spanning from low to high-speed. With a rugged design, these automatic box closers offer reliable operation in 24/7 high-volume manufacturing and distribution environments. To support an often high-turnover labor force, a uniform and intuitive user interface (HMI) for easy operation and maintenance is standard across the portfolio.

The CS25 Case Sealer is an all-purpose machine for almost any application requiring speeds up to 42cpm. A convenient bypass option eliminates the need for additional conveying when pre-sealed boxes or HSCs are introduced into the line. To ensure consistent sealing of the box, spring loaded synchronous compensating side belts and squaring wheels ensure cases remain square throughout the closing and sealing process.

A spare tape head allows quicker replacement of tape by exchanging the entire head and refilling the empty one while the machine is back up and running.

Air conditioning provides cooling when ambient temperature becomes too hot or the contents of the electrical enclosure generate heat that risk failure to components.

An auxiliary operator station enables easy access to cycle start/stop, reset, and emergency stop pushbutton functions on both sides of the machine.

Bottom tape seal can be combined with the standard top tape seal. When cases arrive at the machine the bottom flaps must be closed.

A tankless glue system pulls hot melt adhesive in solid state form from a storage container into a heat chamber where it is melted only when required. This reduces char and waste and eliminates the need to fill a melt tank that is extremely hot.

A grace port provides convenient communication access and a 110V convenience outlet at the outside of the machine’s electrical cabinet.

An ergonomically-designed, highly-configurable hand pack station that can be customized for various plant layouts and output requirements.

Adhesive fill systems monitor and maintain proper adhesive levels in hot melt glue system tanks. The sealed melter and auto-feed systems relieve machine operators from continuously refilling the tank.

Electrical enclosures located in cold and humid environments maintain better performance and longevity with the addition of a heater and drier package. In high-temperature environments, the addition of an air conditioner may be necessary for optimal performance.

This machine can be modified to operate outside of standard specifications to accommodate smaller or larger dimension products and cases. Specific adjustments require engineering review to determine limitations and potential performance trade-offs such as machine speed or larger machine footprint.

A Network Address Translation device allows specific Ethernet network configurations across multiple machines in the plant network and offers the ability for remote support through VPN connections.

Easily move or reposition a machine on the production floor with the portability package, which provides locking casters and stabilizing jackscrew assemblies. Depending on machine model, it can also include quick disconnects for air lines and electrical lines.

A remote access router mounted in the electrical cabinet allows secure Internet VPN connection to a machine or system for support and control program change needs. This capability is included with every Pearson engineered system and as an option on all individual machines. Remote service access offers the potential to reduce on-site service trips. Internet connectivity is available via direct Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or cellular methods.

USER CENTRIC DESIGN

Machine operators that perform their tasks independently free up your maintenance team and keep lines running smoother. Yet frequent turnover, language barriers, and skill gaps in these positions pose significant challenges to operations teams.

Pearson’s HMI Centric Design puts your operators and technicians at the center of our design decisions. With an uncluttered design, intuitive navigation, interactive guides, live sensor maps and advanced maintenance features, the HMI has morphed into a personal assistant. Mechanical improvements to the machines focus on easier visibility, accessibility and ergonomics for an optimal user experience for varying abilities and experience levels.

Minimize operator and technician training time
Increase changeover and fault-recovery speed
Promote improved machine maintenance and extend equipment life

What tape width can be run on the machine?

For optimal performance, two and three-inch tape is recommended.

What tape mil thickness is required?

For optimal performance, we recommend 1.8 mil or higher for side and top taping and 2.4 mil to 3.1 mil for bottom taping. If you want to run other mil thicknesses, please allow Pearson engineering to review your application.

Does case hand matter?

No. Case hand does not matter in the configuration of a box sealer.

What is the lead time? When does it start?

Standard lead time is 9-11 weeks. Standard lead times do not account for non-standard options. These are estimates, your confirmed lead time will be provided once the project is being scheduled with project management. You may also request a specific date, which we’ll confirm before you place the order. Lead times start when the PO is accepted.

This product is also available under our Streamlined Lead Time Program with a lead time as short as 30 days. To make it work, customization options will be limited to the most popular 200. Speak to your sales representative about the details of this program.

What information do I need to provide for a quote?

If a quick, high-level budgetary quote is all you need, we are happy to provide you with the base machine rate. However, the more information you provide us about your particular application, the more accurately we can quote you. It also enables us to identify potential challenges and discuss how we can overcome them. If you are interested in a detailed quote, expect our sales managers to discuss the following questions with you.

Case rates
Case Style (RSC, HSC, Bliss, FOL, etc..)
Case dimensions (LxWxD, Open Depth and KDW, Drawings are preferred)
Tape or glue closure
Construction type (mild steel, stainless steel, stainless with NEMA4X low-pressure washdown)
Environment of room where equipment will be placed – Hot, cold, wet, temp
Duty cycle (ie. 3 shifts per day 5 days per week)
Voltage requirement
Product inside the cases (pictures preferred)
Estimated full case weight
Wish list for upgrade options
Special requirements
Are there specifications that need to be reviewed?

What can I expect after I request a quote?

If all you need is a high-level budgetary quote, we will provide you base-level machine pricing immediately. If you are looking for a more detailed quote, we will reach out to you within 24 business hours to discuss your application and collect all the necessary information. Once we collected the information, expect a detailed quote within 2-4 business days (unless your application requires non-standard options). For a firm quote, we generally like to review a sample of your case(s)/partitions/bags. This greatly reduces the risk of missing any potential obstacles and ensures that you receive not only the most accurate quote but also a high-performing machine. If your request requires a specifications response, please allow 7-10 working days for a quote turnaround.

Why do you need case samples for a firm quote? What if I don't have any?

Case samples allow us to help you avoid unforeseen challenges, determine the need for special options or recommend a different machine model better suited for your application. In nearly 65% of all projects, case sample reviews prevent costly mistakes, inferior performance and extended lead times. Here is a small sample of unwanted problems case reviews uncovered and averted:

Samples did not match drawings, which drove a change to the proposal
Unidentified shied flaps
Case hand was not identified on drawings or different
Product fit too tight or too loose into the case
The case’s manufacturer’s joint location or style interfered with the product being loaded
Corrugate quality issues interfering with proper machine performance
Bag thickness/construction/size did not match the requirements
Flap folding sequences/glue patterns requiring special attention
Head space in cases requiring special options or over pack interfering with proper sealing

Although we’d like to review case samples before we provide a firm quote, we understand that this is not always possible. In that case, we will provide a quote based on the information and drawings you provided.

What are the limitations of low-pressure washdown?

Low-pressure washdown is limited to 4.3 psi at a distance of 10 feet. It does not protect against direct hard spray or the use of caustic fluids.
