TeerawatPurchasing Manager
A carton gluing machine is a mechanical device used in carton factories to glue together folding cartons.
The type of glue used in a carton gluing machine depends on the specific application and requirements.
1. White glue, which has good environmental performance, low price, and is suitable for manual gluing or gluing ordinary corrugated cardboard boxes using semi-automatic and fully automatic gluing machines.
2. Hot melt adhesive: strong adhesion and good penetration, it can directly penetrate into the fibers of the cardboard surface, making the bond stronger.
The folding carton machine can handle corrugated cartons. Especially the fully automatic corrugated carton folding machine can automatically complete a series of processes from deviation correction and base trimming to aligning and assembling the colored cartons, significantly improving work efficiency and product quality.

How Folder Gluer Machines Work
The working process of a folder gluer machine usually includes several stages:
1. Paper Feeding
Corrugated sheets are automatically fed into the machine. The feeder ensures stable and continuous paper input at high speed.
2. Folding Section
The machine folds the paper along pre-creased lines. Different folding systems allow the production of straight-line boxes, lock-bottom boxes, and other custom packaging styles.
3. Glue Application
Cold glue or hot melt glue is applied precisely to specific areas of the box blank. Accurate glue control helps improve bonding quality and reduce waste.
4. Pressing and Forming
After folding and gluing, the cartons move through a pressing section where pressure is applied to ensure strong adhesion and perfect box shaping.
5. Counting and Stacking
Finished boxes are automatically counted and stacked for easy packaging and transportation.
Conclusion
Folder gluer machines help packaging manufacturers improve productivity, reduce production costs, and achieve consistent box quality. As demand for corrugated packaging continues to grow, folder gluer machines have become an important solution for modern carton production.
