GSL20 enforces the most of high mechanical quality that guarantees case erection and positive handling, already tested and consolidated in the MG2 vertical case-packer. The advanced technology, involving the use of servomotors for the main machine movements and the pneumatic system used only for the secondary movements, makes GSL20 a highly reliable and easy to run machine.

The size change-over for the case-packing section does not require the replacement of any size parts, but is carried out using hand-wheels with millimetric reference scales and panel adjustments to adapt the GSL20 to the new dimensions of the case to be handled. As regards the product in-feed section, the main parts to be changed are the pusher plate and the hopper which groups the products in the configuration required by the machine user. This means that size change-over is extremely rapid and easy to perform.

Cases can be closed with tape or hot-melt glue, depending on the user's requirements.

The standard GSL20 includes a colour touch-screen for the control of machine functions. GSL20 can be supplied, on request, with an Industrial PC, with a touch screen monitor, with Windows XP and MG2 software in conformity with CFR21 part 11 for ER.
