Introduction
The growing demand of packaging complying with the EU directive on reusable packaging has driven R&D efforts to develop solutions for the Circular Economy, greener planet and sustainable growth. We present a series of machines for the production of Box Pallet Sleeves made out of PP hollow profile sheets.

Machine types and functions

• Hot creasing machines for Box Pallet Sleeves: semi-automatic machines to hot crease in V or W shapes PP hollow profile sheets, to manufacture Box Pallet Sleeves in any variety of sizes and sheet density. Such machines are modular and can be supplied as follows:
  • with one single hot creasing station
  • with 3 simultaneous hot creasing stations to hot crease in one step a semi box pallet sleeve (half a sleeve)
  • with 6 simultaneous hot creasing stations to hot crease in one step a full box pallet sleeve
• Hot creasing machines for Inspection Windows of Box Pallet Sleeves: semi-automatic machines to hot crease in V and W shapes PP hollow profile sheets, to generate the inspection window in a box pallet sleeve.
• Hot welding/joining of a sleeve or 2 semi sleeves: semi-automatic machines to hot weld and join a sleeve or 2 semi sleeves together. Hot welding can be carried out either by butt welding or by overlapping (overlapping welding) according to specific box pallet design and sheet specifications.
• Edge rolling and sealing units: units to edge roll and seal the top and bottom part of the Box Pallet Sleeves (edge rolling and sealing machines/units).

Integration and operation
Almost all of these machines can operate as stand-alone solutions or be integrated in an in-line solution according to the specific box pallet sleeve design and production requirements.

Our machines in action
Video demonstrations showing the machines producing, creasing and welding box pallet sleeves and inspection windows are provided to illustrate machine operation and final products.
