The Anubis 3D Automatic Case Erectors (ACE), also known as carton erectors, convert flat boxes into fully erected, bottom-sealed cases. Traditionally, automatic case erectors are standalone machines designed to handle a specific and limited number of case sizes. Changing, from one box size to another disrupts production due to the time it takes to adjust the equipment. In addition, those machines are designed for high throughput, and with their large footprint, it is harder to integrate them with existing installations. The ACE Tools takes advantage of the flexibility of 6-axis robots and cobots. It is designed with safety, durability, productivity, and efficiency in mind.
Anubis 3D Automatic Carton Erector (ACE) is designed to meet and exceed the industry Collaborative Robot safety standards. All components are made from composites with no sharp edges, pinch points, or exposed metal. Watch the 1st generation ACE manipulate cartons in a breeze.

AUTOMATIC CARTON ERECTOR (ACE) SYSTEMS
ACE-090
WITH IVTC-A2
Automatic Carton Erector (ACE-090) is our standard solution for erecting cartons using a 6-Axis Collaborative or Classic Robot. Fully equipped and ready to use. The 90° actuator and 76 l/min of vacuum holding force on either side of the box provides swift reliable carton erecting.
ACE-180
WITH IVTC-B2
Automatic Carton Erector (ACE-180) is our deluxe customizable carton erector which also can function as a surface gripper. The 180° actuator allows the carton folding arm to rotate out of the way, allowing the customizable plenum and 308 l/min of vacuum power ready to move product.

PRODUCT PICKING
Automatic Carton Erector (ACE-180) deluxe carton erector works in conjunction with our Integrated Vacuum Tool Changers (IVTC-B2) enabling easy disconnection for maintenance as well as providing value in its ability to function with other tools. This variation of our IVTC-B2 is equipped with all the dedicated components including solenoid valves to operate two ejector units as well as solenoids to control the pneumatic 180° actuator and is available with an optional distance sensor. This ACE-180 comes equipped with 308 l/min of vacuum force across the plenum and 76 l/min of vacuum source on the flap suction cups. The IVTC-B2 plenum section can be customized using the same guidelines as our Area Surface Gripper (ASG) semi-configured plenums use. Select, and place suction cups including size, quantity, and pitch anywhere with-in our engineered body.
Printed Robot Flange (PRF-B) Our customizable 3D printed robot flange plate can accommodate any connection scenario from 55mm to 80mm in diameter.
