The 3M-Matic™ 8000af case sealer range is designed for businesses that need reliable, high-volume carton sealing with minimal operator input. Each machine in the range manually adjusts to handle multiple box sizes and uses twin gear motor drives for consistent performance in heavy-duty applications. By automatically folding top flaps before taping, these machines reduce the need for constant supervision, making them ideal for busy packing lines. Capable of sealing up to 40 uniform cases per minute, they deliver both speed and efficiency.
At the heart of the range is the 3M™ AccuGlide™ taping process, which applies a secure "C" clip of Scotch® pressure-sensitive box sealing tape along the top and bottom centre seams. This low-impact, curvilinear application helps protect cases from damage while ensuring strong, reliable seals. Dual masts with dual crossbars give the taping heads added stability, supporting smooth operation and consistent results even at high volumes.
Within the range, customers can select between machines using the AccuGlide™ 2+ and those that incorporate the AccuGlide™ 3 Taping Head, offering flexibility to match specific packaging needs. The 8000af models are compatible with wider and narrower tape sizes providing the same performance.
