Horizontal Cartoner HC 5
(up to 200 cartons/min.)

The HC 5 is our latest highlight in the field of compact cartoning machines. It has been specially developed for applications in the pharmaceuticals and cosmetics industries, in the low and medium output range of up to 200 cartons/min.

Its user-friendly machine concept enables optimum accessibility from all sides and as is the case with all IWK machines, rapid format change is guaranteed.

This cartoning machine enables the cost-effective packaging of common products such as tubes, bottles and blisters. Its modular design enables the subsequent installation of additional functions, thereby ensuring easy adaptation to changing packaging processes.
