Pack 44 Special, the double-mode collector for any box shape
Pack 44 Special is Vega’s semi-automatic collector for the manual packing of boxes produced by folding gluing machines. It can be connected with any folder gluer, Vega or other brand, is mounted on wheels, and is ready to use within minutes.
Double-mode packing
Pack 44 Special’s distinctive feature is its double-mode packing station, designed to adapt to any box shape:
Lowered roller conveyor, parallel to the floor, to make the packing of regular-shaped blanks easier, letting them slide on the belt.
Inclined roller conveyor, to make the packing of complex-shaped blanks easier, collecting them in bundles.
Who it’s for
Pack 44 Special is the right choice for those processing boxes of different sizes and shapes on the same line, needing a flexible end-of-line that adapts without configuration changes — unlike the standard Pack-PTD, sized for more linear use.

Frequently asked questions
- What’s the difference between Pack 44 Special and Pack-PTD?
Pack 44 Special has a double-mode packing station (lowered conveyor for regular-shaped boxes, inclined conveyor for complex shapes) and a more powerful motor (0.91 kW vs 0.55 kW), making it more versatile on mixed formats within the same line. If your production always works the same box type, Pack-PTD is probably sufficient and more cost-effective; if you frequently alternate between regular and complex-shaped boxes on the same line, Pack 44 Special avoids having to reconfigure the machine at every changeover. - Does Pack 44 Special only pair with Vega folder gluers?
Does Pack 44 Special only pair with Vega folder gluers? No, it is compatible with any commercial folder gluer, regardless of manufacturer — the same installation flexibility principle as Pack-PTD. - Which box formats does Pack 44 Special handle?
Which box formats does Pack 44 Special handle? It handles closed blanks from 46 to 440 mm with a height of 100 to 500 mm; the formed box can reach a height of 500 mm, width of 700 mm and depth of 500 mm — a wider box format range than the standard version, consistent with its focus on handling more varied shapes. - Does Pack 44 Special require long installation times?
Does Pack 44 Special require long installation times? No, it is on wheels and designed for quick use, like the rest of Vega’s collector range — installation doesn’t require extended production line stoppages.
