Folder gluer machines are widely used in carton and packaging production.
However, many manufacturers still rely on manual adhesive or tape application for additional packaging functions.
A folder gluer retrofit solution allows companies to upgrade existing equipment with automatic tape application capability.
Why Upgrade Existing Folder Gluer Machines?
Replacing a complete production line can be expensive.
A retrofit solution provides another option.
Benefits include:
- Lower investment cost
- Shorter implementation time
- Better equipment utilization
- Improved automation level
How Does a Retrofit Tape Application System Work?
A tape application module is integrated into the existing folder gluer machine.
The system can automatically:
- Feed tape
- Position adhesive material
- Apply tape at the required location
The final design depends on:
- Machine structure
- Product size
- Production speed
- Tape requirements
Suitable Applications
Folder gluer retrofit solutions can be considered for:
- Carton packaging
- Gift boxes
- Special packaging products
- Industrial packaging
