An effective piece of integrated packaging equipment, the fully automatic printing slotting and die-cutting machine is primarily used for printing, die-cutting, and slotting cardboard boxes and boards, among other tasks. The following provides a thorough analysis of its multi-process functioning principle:
1. The primary workflow
Stage of paper delivery
The cardboard sheets are fed into the machine one at a time by automatic paper feeding mechanisms (such Feida or vacuum suction belts), which guarantee accurate alignment and continuous feeding.
stage of printing
Flexographic printing is a popular method in which a mesh roller transfers ink to the printing plate, which then transfers the text and graphics to the cardboard's surface. With an ink fountain, mesh roller, plate cylinder, and impression cylinder in each color unit, it may be produced in a variety of colors.
Digital or offset printing: Other printing techniques might be used for some high-end models.
Stage of slotting
Slotting blade set: With adjustable depth and location, the upper and lower blade sets create longitudinal grooves in the cardboard that result in creases on the cardboard box's side.
When slotting, the wire pressing wheel completes horizontal wire pressing (for simple folding).
Stage of die cutting
Flatbed die-cutting: This type of die-cutting, which is appropriate for intricate and high-precision geometries, uses a fixed die in conjunction with a platform.
Circular die cutting: Suitable for large-scale production, the rotating die and drum work together to provide high-speed continuous cutting.
The waste cleaning mechanism automatically releases the waste material after die-cutting.
Stage of material receipt
After being automatically counted and stacked, the final product is sent out by a conveyor belt or stacker.
2. Composition of the core system
Servo motors power the gearbox system, which keeps every unit in sync.
Positioning system: markers are detected and corrected in real time by photoelectric sensors or cameras (CCD).
Control system: industrial computer or PLC, which modifies variables including speed, pressure, and register accuracy.
Mold system: Easily interchangeable cutting dies and slotting instruments to satisfy various product specifications.
3. Features related to technology
High precision: The die-cutting accuracy is ± 0.1mm, and the registration error is ≤± 0.5mm.
High efficiency: Transit is decreased by the integrated design, and the speed can reach 200–300 sheets per minute.
Automation includes waste cleaning, plate replacement, automatic pressure control, and a decrease in operator involvement.
Flexible production: Use parameter presets to quickly swap between orders.
4. Use cases
Carton packaging includes food packaging, e-commerce logistics boxes, and more.
Alien cutting: Gift and display boxes with intricate shapes.
Multi-layer cardboard is made by combining cardboard and corrugated paper.
5. Points of maintenance
Lubricate the bearings and guide rails on a regular basis.
Examine the cutting die's wear and replace it as soon as possible.
Scraps of paper and ink should be cleaned to avoid sensor failure.
By achieving "one-stop" processing from raw materials to final products, the fully automatic printing slotting and die-cutting machine has significantly increased the packaging industry's production efficiency and uniformity in quality.
