WZH-260P Ultra-High-Speed Continuous Cartoning Machine

Flagship Full-Servo Continuous Motion Technology for Maximum Production Efficiency

The AIPAK WZH-260P is our premier high-speed automatic continuous cartoning machine, engineered on the ultra-stable WZH-260P industrial flagship platform. This high-technology product seamlessly incorporates pneumatic, photo-electronic, and mechanical systems into a synchronized, high-performance ecosystem.

Designed specifically for large-scale pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and nutraceutical manufacturers, the WZH-260P achieves a stable production speed of up to 260 cartons per minute.

  • Encasing Speed: 50 – 260 cartons/min (Ultra-high-speed continuous motion).

  • Folding Range: 1 – 4 folds (Precision-controlled leaflet folding mechanism).

  • Carton Material Quality: 250 – 350 g/m² (Optimized for premium and high-density paperboard).

Ultra-High-Speed Full-Servo Architecture

Utilizing a continuous motion framework, the WZH-260P achieves a stable production output of 50 to 260 cartons per minute without the erratic stop-and-start stress of intermittent models.

Advanced 4-Station Rotary Opening Design

Features a four-equal double row star wheel rotation type mechanism for outward carton opening, which handles the high vacuum demands of high-speed sorting smoothly.

Zero-Waste Intelligent Detection & Fail-Safe

Integrated photo-electronic feedback systems activate a strict “No Product-No Carton” and “No Leaflet-No Carton” defense loop, saving material costs and preventing line jams.

Heavy-Duty Industrial Build & OEE Analytics

The smart HMI system automatically displays trouble alerts, logs operational status, triggers alarms, and tracks finished products for immediate OEE calculations.

Flawless GMP & Sanitary Engineering

All primary electrical components and mechanical metals comply strictly with international GMP standards, making it ready to pass the most rigorous quality audits.

  • Continuous Multi-Axis Servo Control: Replacing traditional mechanical linkages with an advanced multi-axis servo system, the WZH-260P ensures ultra-precise electronic timing, lower noise, and near-zero mechanical friction at peak speeds.

  • 4-Station Rotary Vacuum Opening: Features a multi-station rotary star-wheel suction mechanism that pulls and pre-breaks the carton during high-speed rotation, guaranteeing 100% carton deployment even for heavy-duty cardstocks.

  • Dynamic Posterior Tracking Pushers: Utilizes a posterior continuous tracking and pushing architecture. The pushers slide the product and folded leaflet into the moving carton concurrently, preventing any high-speed collisions or product damage.

  • Advanced “Triple-Check” Fail-Safe Detection: Integrated with high-sensitivity photo-electronic loops that enforce a strict “No Product – No Carton” and “No Leaflet – No Carton” logic, eliminating packaging waste.

  • Ergonomic Balcony Layout: Engineered with a clean balcony structure that separates the rear drive components from the front operational zone, eliminating dust traps and making line clearance fast and convenient for global GMP audits.

Two things decide the model, and speed is only the second one.

What you pack comes first. Blisters, bottles and sachets each need a different feeder at the infeed. In the 120 series that is three separate machines. Above 120 the machines are more general, except the 260P, which is built for bottles.

Carton size is almost the same across the range. Every model takes a carton 70 to 180 mm long. Only the width narrows slightly above 180 cartons a minute, from 85 to 80 mm. So you do not lose carton flexibility by buying speed.

Industry Applications

The WZH-260P is the ultimate solution for high-volume secondary packaging lines:

Mass Pharmaceutical Lines

Perfect for handling ALU-PVC or ALU-ALU blisters coming from high-speed forming machines, as well as vials, ampoules, and pre-filled syringes.

High-Volume Daily Chemical & Cosmetics

Ideal for toothpaste tubes, premium skincare jars, and beauty packs requiring flawless, scratch-free continuous packaging.

Nutraceutical Mega-Factories

Designed for high-speed multi-count sachet packing and health supplement bottle lines.

What to check before you buy

01

The five questions any supplier should ask you

What goes in the carton and how many. Carton dimensions and closing style. Leaflet format and whether it arrives folded. What feeds the machine upstream. Target speed. If a supplier quotes you without these, the machine that arrives will not fit the line it was bought for.

02

Carton sizing — where most projects go wrong

Manually packed cartons are usually a snug fit around the product. An automated pusher needs clearance. Send us both your product and carton dimensions. We will tell you before you order whether your existing carton runs, or needs modifying — rather than after it has been printed in quantity.

03

The documentation

Operating and maintenance manuals in English, electrical schematics, a spare parts list with part numbers and prices, and a signed FAT report before the machine ships. Ask any supplier to show you a sample manual page before you order.

WZH-260P Continuous Cartoning Machine FAQ

How does the WZH-260P handle the extreme speed of 260 cartons per minute without crushing the cartons?

At this speed, a standard pull-down suction system fails. The WZH-260P solves this by utilizing a 4-station rotary star-wheel outward opening system paired with an active twice-pre-forming device. This rotary design gently but forcibly breaks the carton scores while the box is in continuous motion, ensuring zero structural failures.

Can the WZH-260P be directly integrated with a high-speed blister packaging line?

Absolutely. The WZH-260P is natively built for high-speed line integration. Its PLC system communicates seamlessly with upstream blister lines (such as our high-speed DPH series) or automated bottling lines via intelligent data links, automatically modulating its speed based on real-time upstream flow.

What kind of maintenance and OEE tracking features are available?

The machine features a sophisticated human-machine interface (HMI) that displays live diagnostics, counts finished products in real-time, and logs any fault alerts with exact locations. Its full-servo design significantly reduces the number of wear parts, resulting in a much higher OEE compared to intermittent models.

How does the machine handle leaflet insertion at such a high cycle rate?

The automatic high-speed leaflet folding unit is synchronized mechanically and electronically with the main drive chain. Utilizing proprietary holding-finger technology, the leaflet is clamped and guided continuously into the carton along with the product, ensuring zero displacement.

What safety protocols protect the machine if a mechanical jam occurs?

The machine is equipped with an automated mechanical and electronic overload protection shutdown. If an abnormal torque or resistance is detected in the pushers or transport chains, the machine cuts off power within milliseconds, sounds an alarm, and displays the exact fault reason on the HMI to protect your investment.
