Installation of the new machine will offer enhanced automation capabilities.
British machinery manufacturing company Kolbus Autobox has announced providing a new Autobox AB300 box making machine to South East London-based company SMP Group.
According to a Kolbus LinkedIn post, the company has installed a new line box production line, AB300 with Automatic Feeder AF300, a MC300 Multicut module, and a self-rising scissor Lift.
This setup is expected to help SMP further increase the overall number of box styles that it can currently make.
Installation of the new machine will allow SMP to address the increasing demand for box making, the Packaging Portal’s report said.
It will provide enhanced automation capabilities along with higher speed and larger format, compared to the existing machine used by SMP.
All the additional setup, including the AF300 feeder, MC300 Multicut module, and self-rising scissor, will further eliminate the requirement of deploying an operator to manage large and awkward sheets for boxes.
