cartoning machine

Greetings - one place to start your search is here:

http://packaging-equipment.globalspec.com/Industrial-Directory/carton_machine

I would also suggest that your search includes as well - used equipment!

The industry is always in flux & you can find good used workcenters - although noting your location, I cannot say whether you market has proximity to avoid excessive logisitics costs..

Best of Luck in your search

if u r talking about packing many pieces at a time and afraid about paste bottle getting squized while transporting,then u manufacture a two shelf, box into box,in outer shelf u keep brushes though they are hard cant get damaged ,in inner shelf of same box u can put paste bottle safe between surrounded brushes.....

Hello sandeep lokhande:

It depends entirely on how much money you have, if you have a packing machine already, how large is your market is, are you going to export, .........................where shall I stop?

If I had just a limited amount to invest. I would use the tooth brush handle to hold the tooth paste. You can then have it load the brush and use as normal. I do not have a scanner so I cannot send details but, unless the toothbrushes and toothpaste are bought already, that it? I think you will find this type of brush has already been granted a patent?

1) With my first suggestion you would have just one item to pack.

2) Packing toothbrush + toothpaste separately in the same box can be done by out-workers, and I assume the toothbrushes are vacuum packed in plastic?

Hygiene in a lot of countries will not allow home-workers to do the packing if the brush is not wrapped in someway prior to packing.

3) I can see no problem in packing the two together. I used to make tube holders which went through a machine with 144 tubes, with the 'wide' end open to allow the machine to fill the tubes. Then each tube has the open end sealed and in sealing it gives it the familiar 'flat shaped end'. They are pretty strong and I would not be worrying about the tubes getting damaged at all.

4) The tubes are designed to fit into boxes diagonally, and are a tight fit on the bottom two corners, enough room to insert a toothbrush with the bristles at the 'screw-cap' end.

Buy a tube a paste and you will see there is easily enough room in the box to fit a brush in. It really depends on how thick the brush handle is? I assume these toothbrushes are 'disposable' so they need to be strong enough only, to last until the paste finishes....................................

5) The only design criteria is that the brush should be ~the same length as the tube. you can ask the tube maker to make them the length you want. Or to be more exact, to allow the tubes to be longer than the brush handle, but, after the tube is filled and sealed it should end up the same size.

6) If the brush head is large then you can either have a slightly larger square sized box. Which could mean the tube is too loose a fit. Or have the paste tubes a little shorter, by the length of the brush head?

They are all design considerations which may have to change depending on if you want to pack them automatically by machine, or 'manually'.

This will take longer but you will not have the expense of having to pay for broken tubes and brushes when a machine crashes, and, you will not have to go the route of looking for a packing machine. Or buying one if you are already in business?

Consideration should be given if the things are hand packed in someones house or in a factory, the boxes need to be slightly thicker than in they were packed by machine. The reason is, that the tubes will be handle several times.........In a machine they are 'handled' only once in a way that could squash the toothpaste tube boxes........

IF they are packed in a home, I suggest you get them to sign a contract to sack they will take care not to damage the boxes at they are packing. And/or to pack them on a table, then to fill only enough boxes to fill the large outer box at any one time. Otherwise you could get dirty or torn boxes.

1) To open and make the tube boxes.

2) To put the tube in.

3)To put the brush in.

4) to pack into outers................

If you get it done the cheap way in someones home, you should check to see if the rules allow this with personal product. And, in this case, think about it if you were doing it. You would fill a whole lot of tubes and then pack them into the outer transit boxes when you had no more room. It makes sense but, it can also damage or squash some boxes before they are packed.......Hence the reason for slightly stronger packing for the tubes and brush combination.

I hope this helps you. Please get back to us to let us know the route you plan to go in packing these.

Take care and, good luck...........
