TTM Integrated
Topload Cartoning

The core of the TTMD consists of a TTM1 or TTM2 top load cartoner in combination with one or more seamlessly integrated Delta robot cells. The camera-based vision system recognizes the products fed in random order. The TTMD has a maximum output of 150 cartons per minute.

Delta robots pick the products one or multiple at a time from the belt and place them in cartons, trays, or other containers. Each Delta robot typically performs between 60 and 90 picks per minute. The maximum pick rate is up to 120 products per minute.

Using the single or multi-pick method, the robot arms pick the products from the belt and place them in the cartons either flat or on edge. The process is organized according to the counterflow principle: The cartons move in the opposite direction to the product. This reduces rejects and ensures that each carton is filled correctly.

The machine is suitable for variety or assortment packs, as the TTMD top loader can process products from several upstream processes at the same time. The proven tool-free format change concept of the TTM platform is also used on the TTMD and enables a vertical restart after each format change.

Like all cartoners on the TTM platform, the TTM1 is characterized by its high pack style flexibility. New formats can be added thanks to specific format sets for new pack styles.

The TTM1 impresses with its high reliability and consistently high output of up to 100 cartons per minute with a comparatively small footprint. The integrated cartoner can be smoothly integrated into existing lines and quickly put into operation.

The TTM1-1 is the combination of a TTM1 cartoner with an integrated lidding unit. The lidding unit may be retrofitted at a later date to extend the range of pack styles on the machine.

With up to 200 cartons per minute, the TTM2 is the fastest top loading machine of the TTM portfolio. By integrating additional erecting and closing robots, top speed and quality have been combined to create a powerful, efficient topload cartoner with a compact footprint.

The flexible layout of the TTME supports almost any production configuration: inline, from the right, from the left, or at a 90-degree angle. The gentle carton forming allows the use of cardboard material with a high recycled content.

The TTME has a capacity of 30 cartons per minute. This makes this machine suitable for smaller volumes or batch production.

The TTME-FL (Former Loader) combines erecting and loading without closing the carton. Here, too, the gentle forming process allows the use of cardboard material with a high recycled content.

The TTML is a pure loader. The machine is designed to fill all types of individual products into pre-formed trays or boxes. The simple infeed interface ensures short set-up times and long-term flexibility. Packaging and layout flexibility make the TTML a very versatile machine.
