The folded and slit tissues are transported to the machine by manual operation or by way
of automatic feeding through front-end conveying line. The boxes are moved onto the
conveying chain of the machine after being sucked and opened, while sensing the
tissues and boxes, the machine performs boxing. After box-filling, the box flaps will be
folded and sealed by hot glueing, and then qualified boxes are conveyed out.

IV. OUTER PACKING AND TRANSPORT

※ Outer packing:
Before transport, the machine shall be firstly overwrapped with flexible plastic material
and then packed in fully close wooden cases with firm pallet.
※ Transport:
When transported by truck, the machine shall be covered with rain-proof canvas. When
unloaded at the destination, the load capacity of the forklift or crane should be more than
1.5 times the weight of the equipment. If unloaded by crane, make sure that the lifting
place is safe against the danger of vibration and slipping.
※ Storage:
During warehousing period, the machine should be properly placed where it is free of rain,
moisture and sunlight, with ambient temperature -10 ～ +50℃, and the packing material
shall not be removed during the storage period.

V. INSTALLATION

5.1 Installing requirements:

machine can be continuously adjustable in the range of 0 ~ 300 ℃.( the temp above
300 ℃ may cause damage to the parts). The set value shall vary from boxing speed, box
material quality and ambient temperature. The most appropriate temperature setting
should ensure smooth and good-looking both end seals without glue splitting.

Note: both end sealing temperature is controlled independently. The temperature

shall be adjusted individually to check the sealing effect.
