Nexus Lite (formerly the E-Pack) - packaging machine
Smart Entry-Level Packaging Automation
NEXUS Lite is a compact, cost-effective end-of-line system designed to introduce automation into your packaging operations. Ideal for companies seeking to streamline packing and shipping processes, it efficiently handles a wide range of products including books, video games, toys, and e-commerce items.
Combining packing, labeling, sealing, and multi-directional sortation in a single compact solution, NEXUS Lite delivers professional packaging quality with minimal investment and footprint.
Key Features
Operator-Friendly Loading
The system is manually loaded using pre-die-cut cartons of fixed format (slightly larger than A4) with variable heights from 40 to 120 mm, enabling flexible product handling with simple operation.
Adaptive Fit Packaging
After product placement, the machine automatically determines the final box thickness based on the selected carton, ensuring precise and consistent packaging results. Plastic-Free Product Retention
NEXUS Lite enables secure product stabilization without the use of plastic wrapping materials. Items can be shipped freely inside the carton when protection is not required. For delicate products, specially engineered cartons with integrated internal cushioning structures securely hold and protect the contents without additional packaging components.
Integrated Bottom Labeling
A built-in bottom-side label applicator automatically applies shipping or identification labels during the packaging cycle. The finished package exits the machine with the label positioned on the top face, clearly visible and correctly oriented for immediate downstream handling, including automatic conveying or sortation lines.
Automatic Closing and Taping
The carton is automatically closed and taped, delivering a secure, professional package ready for dispatch.
3-Way Sortation Output
A pop-up ejection system directs finished boxes to three selectable discharge directions, enabling flexible line integration and workflow optimization.
Optional Robotic Palletizing
For higher automation levels, an optional robotic module can be added to automate palletizing and further streamline end-of-line logistics.
The Ideal First Step into Packaging Automation
NEXUS Lite is the perfect solution for businesses introducing automation without major investment. Its intuitive operation, compact footprint, and versatile functionality make it a powerful entry-level system for improving productivity and ensuring safe, reliable shipments.

CT60 Round Corner Cutting System
This machine is designed to round-cut the corners of soft cover books, card books, and book blocks prior to casing-in. It can function as a stand-alone unit or be integrated in-line with existing binding and trimming systems.
Optimus Prime - Bottle Box/Slip Case production
This machine is designed to automate slip case / bottle box production for consistency, efficiency, and quality. It will automatically wrap the cover sheet around the taped board carcass (slip case or bottle box).
Save on man-power – let OPTIMUS PRIME do all the hard work! A tool/mould will be required for each different box/slip case size. Material must have hot animal glue application or cold vegan glue heated to 30 degrees to ensure efficient, clean production.
Two Machines Required, Depending On Run Length.
Machine 1: Pre-formed boxes are placed onto the pre-glued sheet and then held on the machine with a suction tool. The machine then wraps the material around the slip case / box automatically.
Machine 2 Option: For wrapping inside the slip case / box, this can either be done by hand (short runs), or the second machine can be deployed to finish the box, by tucking in the final part using a different tool.The vacuum suction tooling also enables the forming of the slip case / box from a die / grooved board. The board should be placed on the glued sheet, and suction holds the board on the tool and then let the machine complete the process – automatically!
STS – Sheet-To-Sheet Digital Laser Finishing
The SmartFinish STS laser processing system is designed for exceptional precision in through-cutting, kiss-cutting, and perforating full-sheet materials.
