BOX-EXT: compact cartoner for boxes with cardboard insert

The BOX-EXT is a cartoning machine which folds and glues different sizes of flat cardboard into a top-loaded box – it also folds and glues the insert of the box. The machine can be adapted to your needs and is suitable for high-mix, low-volume production processes. Ideal for companies working with many different products at low volumes.

Suitable for High Mix Low Volume

The automatic tray increases a production process’ efficiency. After the tray’s been closed, the machine places the flat cardboard above the folding tool and the pressing tool pushes the box around it so it’s pushed into the right shape and glued properly. The box is placed on a conveyor belt and moved to receive the cardboard insert. The inlay is manually placed in the cartoner and then automatically folded, glued and placed in the cardboard box. The lead time of a box with inlay is between 12 and 20 seconds. The lead time of a box without an insert is between 10 and 15 seconds. Both lead times depend on the size of the box and the speed of the operator. Additionally, the working height – the height from the floor to the top of the tray – is adjustable between 1.05 and 1.10 metres.
