Customer requirement
The customer needed to automate the box sealing process by applying adhesive tape to both the top and bottom of the boxes.
The boxes had a slightly unusual shape and non-standard dimensions, making it necessary to identify a reliable solution capable of ensuring stability during machine passage and a precise, uniform closure.
Proposed solution and machine used
After analyzing the characteristics of the boxes, the FP 9037 case sealer was selected, a solution designed for the semi-automatic sealing of boxes with adhesive tape.
👉 Machine: FP 9037 semi-automatic case sealer

The choice was mainly determined by the machine’s construction features and its ability to adapt to boxes with non-standard geometries.
In particular, the FP 9037 is equipped with double upper and lower drive belts, which ensure smooth and controlled box movement throughout the entire taping process.
This feature reduces the risk of blockages, misalignment, or damage during the machine output phase, guaranteeing a continuous and reliable production flow.
Test performed
During the test, the customer’s boxes were evaluated to verify transport stability and the quality of the adhesive tape sealing.
The video shows the correct movement of the boxes through the machine and the simultaneous application of the tape on both the top and bottom sides.
The system demonstrated smooth operation even with boxes featuring non-standard shapes.
Result and conclusions
The test confirmed the full suitability of the FP 9037 case sealer for this type of application.
The double drive system ensures stable and safe box movement, while the machine structure allows the handling of boxes with particular shapes without compromising their integrity.
The solution proved effective in improving the efficiency of the packaging process, reducing manual intervention and increasing production continuity.
