Lamina Folder Gluer install at Challenge Packaging

Challenge Packaging, just outside Eastbourne, UK has just had a crash-lock gluer installed from Lamina System, Sweden. The compact 14.10 gluer is a fully automatic folder gluer that is equipped with a non-stop suction belt feeder and a variety of guides and belts to handle standard one-point boxes or three-point crash-lock boxes. The simple batch separation system prior to banding makes it very operator friendly. The machine has been placed on rails meaning sections can be easily rolled apart to give full access during set ups. This Lamina gluer will compliment other existing box gluers at Challenge enabling some flexibility and increased production which is much needed due to a huge increase in orders. In addition, Lamina has retro fitted a feeder and bobbins to a Lamina taping machine that was installed 18 months ago. This will help with the growing need for more e-commerce packaging.

Neil Thayer of Finishline Machinery, the UK & Ireland Sales Agent for Lamina System reports that sales during COVID-19 have been steady with many more machines on order.
