Twin Box Slitter® for Converting

Product Description

Make your corrugated box production process more efficient with the Twin Box Slitter (TBS).

The Twin Box Slitter® is a unique converting machine. The addition of a Twin Box Slitter enables box plants to double the production of Flexo Folder Gluers by running two-up boxes. These boxes are slit by the Twin Box Slitter creating two boxes.  Once the boxes are separated, they are ready to be bundled. This process allows manufacturers with a mid-sized Flexo Folder Gluer to efficiently create a wide range of corrugated box sizes from very small to large on one machine with the potential to double productivity at the same time. Learn more about expanding Flexo Folder Gluer box productivity through the addition of a Twin Box Slitter.
