Folding Carton
Production specifics
Folding Carton market is a dynamically developing area. Production uses solid board and paper coated. Cardboard is used for production of a wide range of both unit and collective packaging refined to various degrees.
The technological sequence necessary for packaging production may require using one machine or over ten technological work units on which the material is subject to printing, finishing and die cutting, window pasting and box folding to obtain a finished product.
In order to meet the customers’ requirements packaging printers invest into the more and more modern machines. The equipment is chosen mainly for the required finishing techniques ability starting from coating and laminating machines, foilers, window pasting machines, box folders/gluers and others. The latest equipment often enables simultaneous performance of many processes during one pass of printed sheet through the machine.

Problems and Challenges
The packaging printers must meet various requirements from their clients, in the case of packaging for pharmaceutical and food industries it is necessary to meet a range of requirements related to quality maintenance systems, additional challenges are also related to production of goods from raw materials certified in accordance with the FSC and PEFC. Implementation of these requirements without proper information system supporting the users in creation and making records is very difficult.
Cooperation with large recipients forces packaging printers to participate in numerous public tenders which require developed preparation and price list including numerous editions and versions, the tools enabling not only preparation of a reliable quotation but also flexible change of prices as a result of negotiations.

Performance of the numerous contract jobs forces packaging printers to properly manage the ordered products in accordance with time limits for processing of the particular production batches, maintaining minimal inventories of the given product and time management of the stored products. In addition, for lowering the production costs it is necessary to aggregate products from one or many customers on joint printing sheets. At the same time, for eliminating errors in the production process it is necessary to supply an exact and unambiguous information on the tools required for production (blanking dies, stencils for embossing and foiling etc.). All these and many more challenges can be easily faced with the help of our system.
