Semi Auto Gluer

The Semi Auto Gluer has been designed exclusively for the Gluing of slotted cartons with a cold PVA Glue.

Cartons are loaded onto the rising table on the front of the machine. When the machine is switched on the the pile will rise until the top sheet breaks a photo eye at the entry levelt to the machine. The operator then folds over two panels and pushes the carton into the machine., the feed table then indexes upwards until the next carton is at the correct height. Glue is applied via a wheel that is gravity fed from the glue pot. After the glue is placed on the flap the box indexes forwards into the hopper. Here a bar ensures the box is held closed while drying and a 'Spanker' squares the boxes. When the hopper is full a photo cell acrivates the main converyor belt which indexes the cartons out to the final conveyor, where they are ejected in preset bundles
