High-speed CELOX: slick, eye-catching endload cartoner from Kliklok-Woodman.

Kliklok-Woodman was really busy last October at the Pack Expo show in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA, unveiling three more new machines.

Taking center stage was a new mid- to high-speed endload cartoner, the CELOX. The sleek, machine is packed with features designed to enhance operator interface and accessibility, permit rapid changeover and make for minimal maintenance.

Accompanying the CELOX on the show floor was a machine called the Evolution, billed as "the world's fastest vertical bagmaker." With its patented, independently-phased twin sealing jaws, the continuous-motion bagmaker can attain production throughput of over 225 bags per minute. Snack food and confectionery manufacturing lines have never been faster.

Elsewhere at the booth, a topload carton closer was unveiled in a live webcast. The machine, which turns cartons in midstream for high-speed (200+ cpm) "straight-line" carton closing, extends the line of the company's variable flight pitch machines and takes high-performance topload carton closing to a new level.
