Pack-PTD, il raccoglitore per il fine linea che aumenta la produttività
Pack-PTD is a clever end-of-line application, compatible with any commercial folder gluer, not just Vega’s. It is a semi-automatic motorised collector that facilitates the collection of boxes coming out of the pressure belt, increasing glued box production by 30-50% and reducing packaging costs — extending the connected folder gluer’s pressure section by about three metres.
How it works
Boxes are sent to a vibrating table with left or right exit. Through a 90° rotation of the closed blank, it becomes much easier and faster for the operator — or the two operators positioned at the end of the line — to pick up the boxes.
Who it’s for
Pack-PTD is the solution for companies that need a significant productivity increase on their gluing line, without facing long set-up times or a major investment in a new folder gluer.
Technical summary

Frequently asked questions
How much does Pack-PTD increase production?
Pack-PTD enables a 30-50% increase in glued box production, while also reducing packaging costs. The exact percentage depends on your current line’s configuration: the more the manual end of line was a bottleneck before installation, the closer the percentage benefit will be to the upper end of this range.Does Pack-PTD only pair with Vega folder gluers?
Does Pack-PTD only pair with Vega folder gluers? No: it is compatible with any commercial folder gluer, regardless of manufacturer, and is mounted on wheels for quick and flexible use — you can therefore install it on an existing line without replacing the folder gluer you already own, a concrete advantage if you’re considering boosting productivity without a major investment in a new machine.Which box formats does Pack-PTD handle?
It handles closed blanks from 46 to 440 mm, with a height of 100 to 500 mm, at a speed of 26 m/min. If your boxes fall within this size range, Pack-PTD is an applicable solution; for out-of-range formats, we recommend contacting us to check whether alternative configurations exist or whether it’s worth evaluating other end-of-line solutions such as Rotopack.Does Pack-PTD require long installation times?
Does Pack-PTD require long installation times? No: it is designed for quick use, requiring only a few minutes to start production, and is independently motorised from the connected folder gluer — it therefore requires no complex technical work on the existing machine nor specialist skills for connection. This makes it a viable solution even for those wanting to test a productivity increase without stopping the line for long during installation.
