The two plywood moving with the carton rises from both sides of the guide rail to clamp the sides of the carton from the front to back, so that the carton opens at a right angle and moves forward to the filling area.
– The conveyor belt of the automatic cartoner pack machine transports the materials, and the push rod pushes the materials into the empty boxes in the loading area.
– After the material is pushed into the box by the push rod, the carton will enter the closing station driven by the guide rail. Before closing the box cover, the mechanine will first bend the tongue of the box, and the push plate will push the box cover to bend so that the tongue can be inserted into the box.
