Increase your packaging line's versatility with this adaptable beverage cartoning machine. From craft breweries to large-scale drink production facilities, the Beverage Spartan delivers the flexibility and efficiency required to grow your operations.
This intermittent motion cartoner is built on the success of the Spartan cartoner and was originally developed to efficiently place cans into a box. This breakthrough happened at the peak of the craft brewing boom, and Econocorp was well-positioned to take on the challenge of developing a packaging solution for emerging breweries and craft beverage brands.
The best part? We haven’t stopped evolving this flexible solution for other growing beverage producers.
The Beverage Spartan features a LinMot electric linear actuator for product loading up to six lanes, making running craft beer and beverage variety packs easy. Producers can package up to six varieties of cans that travel in their own lanes.
The actuator then pushes cans into sleeves or cartons with accuracy – whether you’re loading 4 or 6 at a time. By consolidating processes, the Beverage Spartan craft beer cartoner can reach increased speeds of up to 40 cartons per minute.
Versatile Beverage Cartoning Machine Handles More Than Drinks
Our beverage cartoning machine handles an impressive range of products beyond just beverages. From craft beer and spirits to canned vegetables, soups, and pasta—including clip-top containers that eliminate the need for can openers. We've even deployed this craft beer cartoner everywhere from craft breweries to mobile disaster relief units in 18-wheeler trucks.
Flexible Horizontal Cartoners Designed for Efficiency
Designed for efficiency, the Spartan operates at a base speed of 40 cartons per minute and supports a medium production capacity of up to 20,000 cartons per shift. Businesses looking to automate manual processes will benefit from its ability to streamline production and enhance output.
Additional enhancements such as servo and robotic infeeds are available to further increase productivity, making this economical horizontal cartoning machine adaptable to various production demands.
