The twin box slitter has become an industry favorite for the versatility it brings to production by expanding the product range box makers can manufacture with a mid-size flexo folder gluer (FFG).
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, 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 create a range of corrugated box sizes, from very small to large, on one machine.
