Comprising the Boxmaker 1065, the box making systems also include the proven Slitter SC124 and a TEC3200 hot-melt glue gun to close the newly made boxes.

The company said that combination is particularly suited to printers as it produces a variety a wraps to protect valuable work, or any size of corrugated case from matchbox size to pallet-box size for general packaging.

That allows the printer, who needs a variety of box styles and box sizes, to manufacture his own in-house and on a just-in-time basis.

The benefits to be gained include major savings on storage space and box cost, as well as being able to produce exactly the right sized wrap, pack or box, just when they are needed, claimed Autobox.

Only seconds are required to change between box size, and style, or to make a completely new box, while there is an on-board memory to store the characteristics of the more popular items, said the company.

No previous knowledge of box making is necessary as it only takes a few minutes for an operator to become proficient and able to manufacture correct size of corrugated cases just as they are required - singly or by the hundred, added Autobox.
