Straight-line carton boxes
Often used for common paperboard packaging. Confirm blank size, folding lines, glue flap position, and required production speed.
Carton forming
Folder gluer machine sourcing for carton production
For folding and gluing paperboard or corrugated carton blanks. Selection depends on box structure, unfolded blank size, material thickness, glue method, feeding stability, speed target, and the layout of the buyer's production line.
Application fit
Start from the carton structure, not the machine name
A folder gluer should be matched to the carton blank and folding path. Straight-line boxes, lock-bottom boxes, corrugated boxes, and special structures may require different belts, folding sections, glue systems, pressing sections, or correction devices.
When buyers provide a carton drawing or product photo, the machine discussion becomes more accurate. It helps identify whether the blank can run on a standard workflow or needs a special configuration.
ProductsPaperboard cartons, corrugated carton blanks, straight-line boxes, and selected lock-bottom box workflows.
Main processesFeeding, pre-folding, folding, gluing, pressing, counting, and collection.
Buyer inputsBox drawing, unfolded blank size, board type, glue process, speed target, voltage, and workshop layout.
Lock-bottom cartons
Need additional folding discussion. The carton drawing should be reviewed before selecting the folding and gluing configuration.
Corrugated carton blanks
Board thickness, flute type, and blank stiffness affect feeding, folding stability, and pressing requirements.
Configuration points
Details that affect the quoted model
Box style
Share the carton drawing, finished box photo, or unfolded blank photo to confirm folding path and glue flap position.
Blank size
Max and min unfolded blank dimensions determine machine width, feeding area, and downstream collection requirements.
Board type
Paperboard and corrugated board behave differently during feeding and folding. Thickness range should be stated clearly.
Glue system
Glue method, glue position, glue type, and cleaning expectations should be discussed before quotation.
Output target
Speed target should be realistic for the material, carton size, operator process, and downstream collection method.
Line layout
Workshop length, machine direction, operator side, and connection to other equipment should be reviewed early.
