Box Making Equipment - Top and Bottom BoxesThe top and bottom lid line is a crucial component of any box packaging production line. It typically consists of a gluing conveyor belt, corner attaching machine, SRARA vision positioning system, laminating machine, and box pressing machine. It performs gluing, grey board lamination, positioning, edge binding, ear folding, and pressing on already glued boxes, while also completing bubble molding. It is the core step in gift box forming. Automatic top and bottom lid lines are widely used in the packaging industry to produce various types of high-end gift boxes, shoe boxes, underwear boxes, shirt boxes, mobile phone boxes, and other packaging boxes.
Industry ChallengesHigh Equipment Vibration, Difficulty in Speeding Up:
The main shaft and parting mechanism experience significant mechanical impact during production, leading to decreased durability of the reducer and rack, limiting equipment speed, and making speed increases difficult.
Lack of Intelligent Control, Time-Consuming Changeovers:
Box type changes are cumbersome, lacking one-click operation; different boxes have different program recipes; furthermore, the touchscreen has numerous parameters, making adjustments tedious and time-consuming, impacting final production.
Crowded Equipment Space, Complex Wiring:
Independent servo drives + PLC + IO modules occupy significant cabinet space, resulting in complex wiring.
Solution FeaturesElectronic Cam Enables Breakthrough in Efficiency:
Developing a flexible cam algorithm reduces mechanical impact on the equipment, making speed increases simpler and eliminating concerns about cylinder delays, thereby improving equipment operating speed.
Rapid Mold Change and Debugging, Flexible Adaptation to Demands:
Combining electronic cam control allows for real-time online application of box forming data parameters. Compared to traditional changeover methods, one-click data updates significantly improve changeover efficiency. The system automatically calculates the angles required for each movement, making it easy for even beginners to operate, reducing manual operation difficulty and time costs.
Highly Integrated Design:
Space-saving design with close proximity to the installation surface, reducing installation area by 49%; digital intelligence saves labor, with a shared rectifier module and regenerative discharge resistor in a multi-axis drive, improving conversion efficiency and recycling rate. In some applications, energy savings of up to 30% can be achieved.
Value RealizedCompared to traditional top-and-bottom cover solutions, the Zhongping top-and-bottom cover packaging solution increases production efficiency by 20%. Single-forming efficiency is 35-40 pieces/min, and dual-forming efficiency is 55-60 pieces/min.
Utilizing a single Zhongping ZP large-scale operation controller, it allows multiple forming machines to operate independently. Its powerful CPU core, combined with optimized algorithms, provides millisecond-level response, ensuring stable operation even at high speeds.
Changeover time reduced by 90%. Adaptive algorithms reduce changeover operation time from 30 minutes to 3 minutes.
Through multi-axis drive, the installation area is reduced by 56% compared to single-axis systems, saving up to 30% in energy and reducing enterprise operating costs.
