Abstract

See full text

A system for automatically forming packaging boxes comprises a folding station comprising four folding units adapted to fold panels of cardboards blanks to form substantially cuboid boxes or lids or combinations of a box and a lid, some of said panels in the folded state forming pairs of two panels running substantially parallel to each other in a processing direction, in which the blanks are transported through the system, and orthogonal to a width direction of the blanks, which is the orthogonal direction to the processing direction in the plane of the blanks, one or more glue application units adapted to put glue on at least one panel of each of said pairs of two panels, a feeding conveyor to convey a cardboard blank into the folding station, a curing station adapted to take over the boxes or lids or combinations of a box and a lid folded in the forming station from the folding station, said curing station comprising holding structure to form-fittingly hold said pairs of panels and to guide the boxes or lids or combinations of a box and a lid through the curing station.
