Semi & Fully Automatic Case Erectors
What Is a Case Erector? The first critical machine in a packaging line
At Klippenstein Corporation, a case erector is not just a machine, it is the starting point of a stable, high performing packaging line. Our case erectors automatically draw corrugated cases from a hopper, erect, square, and seal the bottom so they are ready for filling, closing, and palletizing. We continuously invest in the latest packaging technology to deliver state of the art equipment that improves throughput, reduces labor, and ensures consistent case quality across every shift.
Standardized platforms with customization built in Klippenstein Case Erector Capabilities
Our equipment has been successfully deployed in operations handling walnuts and other nuts, dairy and bottled water, small and large appliances, automotive components, and paper goods. Each system is configured around real production requirements, not generic assumptions.
Every Klippenstein case erector follows a proven mechanical process designed for long term performance and consistent results.

Practical capabilities that support real production environments Key Features of Klippenstein Case Erectors
When evaluating a case erector, understanding the features that impact productivity and reliability is essential. Klippenstein case erectors are designed with features that directly support efficient packaging operations.
Automatic Case Erection
Our automatic case erectors use high-capacity hoppers that allow operators to load large stacks of flat cases at once. This reduces manual handling, allows operators to focus on other tasks, and enables higher output with consistent case quality.
Glue or Tape Sealing Systems
Klippenstein case erectors can be configured with hot melt adhesive sealing or pressure-sensitive tape heads. Each option is selected based on case style, load requirements, and customer preference to ensure dependable bottom seals.
