A casepacker automates the most labour-intensive step at the end of your packaging line: loading cartons or bundles into shipping cases. Hicof builds Swiss-engineered casepackers that not only pack, but handle the legally required aggregation in the background — so serialized packs are reliably linked to their case. From a compact semi-automatic system to a fully autonomous high-speed machine, every Hicof casepacker is built in stainless steel, has a small footprint for easy retrofitting, and integrates seamlessly with our AMACENA software. The result: one system, one supplier, one responsibility.
Hicof provides fully integrated solutions that streamline packaging processes while ensuring complete visibility and control over product movement. Our advanced systems combine high-performance machinery with intelligent software, creating a robust foundation for automation, accuracy, and compliance.
Whether you need an economical entry into automated case packing or a hands-free high-throughput line, Hicof has the right model:
AMAPACKER — Semi-Automatic Casepacker The economical way to automate. One operator loads pre-formed cases while the machine packs up to 150 boxes per minute and aggregates in the background. Ideal for retrofitting existing lines.
AMAPACKER-A — Fully-Automatic Casepacker Fully autonomous: erects, packs, inspects and aggregates up to 300 boxes per minute without operator intervention — typically paying for itself in under 3 years.
| AMAPACKER Semi-Automatic | AMAPACKER-A Fully-Automatic | |
|---|---|---|
| Throughput | up to 150 pcs/min | up to 300 pcs/min |
| Operation | operator-assisted | fully autonomous |
| Aggregation | integrated | integrated |
| Inspection | optional | integrated |
| Best for | retrofits, lower/medium volume | high volume, hands-free lines |
| Construction | stainless steel / aluminium | stainless steel / aluminium |
Hicof’s packaging solutions are designed to optimize efficiency, minimize downtime, and enhance overall productivity. Our automated systems ensure that products are securely packed, reducing errors and improving consistency across production lines. Whether the need is for semi-automatic or fully automated case packing, our machines provide:
Every Hicof casepacker works as a monoblock with AMACENA, our serialization and Industry 4.0 software. The same user interface across the enterprise reduces training and operating effort — and in case of an issue, our experts have remote access across all IT layers down to the PLC.

The HICOF Machines offer in combination with AMACENA an integrated IT-backbone, starting at machine level from the devices as printers, cameras and sensors up to data interfaces of governmental servers. In case of an issue, our experts have instantaneously access through remote access to all relevant parameters across all IT-servers down to the PLC, allowing a seamless and immediate support. This is the opposite of the conventional ISA-95 environment with several software and machine suppliers in which each service engineer has only access to his fraction of data, making a comprehensive root cause analysis extremely cumbersome as he has to synchronize with other involved vendors.
