Carton Cutting & Sizing Machine
Complete design of a carton cutting and sizing machine — frame, roller stack, gear drive and infeed table modelled as one working assembly.
Industry
Packaging & Carton Machinery Design
Carton cutting, sizing and folding machines designed from the product and the cycle time: feed and registration, cutting and creasing heads, folding mechanisms, drives, frames and guarding — delivered as parametric assemblies with GA, detail and BOM drawings your workshop builds from.
What This Sector Needs
Mechanisms That Hit The Cycle Time On A Fabricated Frame
Packaging machines live or die on repeatability: the carton must register, cut, crease and fold the same way at speed, shift after shift. We design the mechanism chain with motion studies and cycle-time checks, size the drives and indexers, and put it on a frame checked for deflection so the registration does not drift.
Our carton machinery projects — a cutting and sizing machine and a folding machine — were designed from the brief through complete manufacturing packages, including guarding and access designed to machinery-safety principles for the target market.
- Feed, registration, cutting, creasing and folding mechanism design
- Motion studies, cycle-time and reach checks before detail design
- Drive, indexer, pneumatic and servo axis sizing
- Fabricated frames with FEA deflection checks; guarding and interlocks to ISO 12100 principles
- Changeover and format-range considerations designed in
- Complete manufacturing packages with BOMs and bought-out lists
