CT60 Round Corner Cutting System

This machine is designed to automatically apply adhesive to cover sheets, which are transported on a vacuum belt to the rigid box application robot. It features automatic inline corner taping, folding the four sides of grooved or die-cut boards to form the box. Once folded, tape is applied to all four corners simultaneously, and the box blank is transferred to the robot’s hopper. The robot then accurately places the box onto the glued sheet with a precision of ±0.1 mm.

The gluing unit includes a high-capacity hopper with a no-sheet detector, hot animal glue, precision rollers, and a circulating pump with viscosity control. After placement, the conveyor moves the box to the pressing station to ensure full contact with the base before entering the box wrapper. The wrapper then automatically takes the box and cover sheet into the forming station, wrapping the cover material around the box to produce a high-quality finished product, which exits via a short conveyor.

This machine is designed to automatically apply the hard cover to the book block following the application of hot melt adhesive to the end papers. This gives a very strong bond to all types of book blocks and eliminates warping effects. Once the cover has been applied to the book block, the cased in book travels automatically to the pressing station where the spine is formed under heat and pressure. The finished book is delivered automatically onto the conveyor.

With our Destratification technology we can regulate your air temperature and improve air flow throughout your building ensuring a more manageable working environment both in the Summer and Winter without costly AC installations and alternatives. This will save the amount you pay for your energy and means the temperature is consistent everywhere; ground floor, first floor, offices, factory floor, mezzanine etc

Productivity in the print industry - Controlling the temperature on mezzanine floors assists box and book production when using hot adhesives. Temperature variations throughout the day/shift cause challenges for output and quality as well as staff comfort!
