Carton Box Making Machine
What is Corrugation Machine?
A corrugated box making machine is designed to produce corrugated cardboard boxes, which are widely used for packaging due to their durability and lightweight properties. These machines can vary in complexity and size, ranging from small manual setups to large, automated production lines.
Types of Corrugated Box Making Machines
- Single-Facer: This machine produces single-face corrugated sheets, combining one flat liner and one fluted medium.
- Double-Facer: Adds a second liner to the single-face sheet to create a standard corrugated board.
- Slitter Scorer: Cuts and scores the corrugated board into the desired sizes and shapes.
- Folder Gluer: Folds and glues the corrugated board to form boxes.
- Die-Cutting Machine: Cuts complex shapes and designs from the corrugated board.
- Flexo Printing Machine: Prints logos, texts, and graphics on the corrugated boxes.
Key Components
- Corrugating Rolls: Create the flutes in the medium.
- Pressure Rolls: Press the liner and medium together.
- Glue Unit: Applies adhesive to bond the layers.
- Cutting and Scoring Section: Cuts and scores the sheets into desired shapes.
- Control System: Automates the process and ensures precision.
Working Process
- Paper Feeding: The machine feeds paper from rolls.
