FLEX - printer for paper bags, burger boxes and finished products

This machine is designed to automate slip case / bottle box production for consistency, efficiency, and quality. It will automatically wrap the cover sheet around the taped board carcass (slip case or bottle box).

Save on man-power – let OPTIMUS PRIME do all the hard work! A tool/mould will be required for each different box/slip case size. Material must have hot animal glue application or cold vegan glue heated to 30 degrees to ensure efficient, clean production.

Two Machines Required, Depending On Run Length. 

Machine 1: Pre-formed boxes are placed onto the pre-glued sheet and then held on the machine with a suction tool. The machine then wraps the material around the slip case / box automatically.

Machine 2 Option: For wrapping inside the slip case / box, this can either be done by hand (short runs), or the second machine can be deployed to finish the box, by tucking in the final part using a different tool.The vacuum suction tooling also enables the forming of the slip case / box from a die / grooved board. The board should be placed on the glued sheet, and suction holds the board on the tool and then let the machine complete the process – automatically!

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.

Did you know that most mould, condensation and dust mite infestation is a direct result of poor ventilation, causing high relative humidity issues? Our systems fix the root cause and eliminate the reoccurrence of these issues. We can also integrate our active air purification technology for adding an extra layer of protection! Mould/damp issues are often misdiagnosed and the ‘solution’ tends to be a costly building structural issue, which is rarely the case, and doesn‘t fix the problem! If these issues are left untreated they can cause many dangerous health and wellbeing conditions, and in some cases death. We’d love to come and survey your building to give you an honest explanation and solution to your issues. Talk to us to find out more!

Radon is a colourless, odourless radioactive gas that comes from the natural decay of uranium in rocks and soil. While outdoors radon levels are very low, it can collect in enclosed spaces like homes and workplaces. The primary health risk of high radon exposure is an increased risk of lung cancer, making it crucial to test for and reduce high levels. We have the expertise and solutions to reduce radon concentrations to below the Action level and ideally below the Target level. These are specialist ventilation systems which include one or both of the following: Positive Pressure Ventilation or Powerful Sump Extraction Ventilation. Major Radon hotspot areas in the UK include South West England (especially Cornwall, Devon, Bristol, Bath, Somerset and Dorset), Wales, Cumbria, Northumberland and parts of the Peak District and Gloucestershire .
