Professional Jones Cartoner Machine Performance
This used Jones cartoner represents proven Cincinnati engineering built for reliable production cartoning. Manufactured by R.A. Jones & Co., this CMV-5 delivers the continuous motion performance and versatility that have made Jones cartoners the choice of packaging operations worldwide for nearly a century.
The vertical design saves valuable floor space while providing excellent operator access. OEM rated speeds reach up to 120 cartons per minute, depending on materials, application, and operator dexterity. This makes the system ideal for mid-volume production requiring flexibility and reliability.
Used Jones Cartoner Built for Diverse Applications
This used Jones cartoner for sale features reverse tuck carton closure, one of the most common and reliable closure methods in packaging. The system handles a versatile carton size range. Lengths from 1 to 4.25 inches, widths from 1 to 4.25 inches, and depths from 2.50 to 8 inches accommodate diverse product packaging requirements.
The three-chain transport is set on 5-inch centers. This configuration provides secure carton handling throughout the cartoning process. The reciprocating pick and place carton feed reliably presents cartons from the 42-inch magazine for consistent, repeatable operation.
Jones Cartoner Machine with Operator-Friendly Design
Extended loading areas measure 8 feet on both sides of the machine. This generous work zone allows operators comfortable access for product loading. The bilateral design enables flexible operator positioning and can accommodate team loading for higher speeds or complex multi-component products.
The discharge conveyor features a 4.75-inch wide belt with 33-inch elevation. This positions finished cartons at an ergonomic height for collection, downstream equipment integration, or case packing operations.
Continuous motion operation provides smooth, consistent cartoning without the stops and starts of intermittent systems. This results in quieter operation and reduced mechanical stress for longer component life.
Modern Controls for Reliable Operation
Allen Bradley automation provides industrial-grade control and monitoring. The MicroLogix 1400 PLC offers proven programmability and reliability. The PowerFlex 525 VFD enables precise speed control for optimal performance across different carton sizes and materials.
The PanelView Plus 1250 interface provides intuitive operator interaction. Machine start/stop buttons and e-stop ensure safe, convenient operation. The Allen Bradley stack light indicator gives instant visual status feedback visible across the production floor.
Electrical requirements are 220 Volt, 3 Phase, 60 Hz. This is standard industrial power available in most manufacturing facilities.
Mobility and Installation Flexibility
Threaded leveling legs provide stable positioning on uneven floors. Casters enable portability for line reconfiguration or cleaning access. This combination of stability and mobility gives you operational flexibility as production needs evolve.
Overall dimensions of 216 inches long by 84 inches wide by 72 inches high provide professional cartoning capability in a manageable footprint. The vertical design minimizes floor space requirements compared to horizontal cartoners handling similar carton sizes.
