Corrugator

Product overview
The requirements for corrugated board production are diverse: from stable e-commerce packaging to resource-saving processes and maximum production speed. BHS Corrugated offers tailored corrugating roll profiles and roll designs to deliver high quality, efficiency and cost-effectiveness for a wide range of corrugated board applications.

eCom profile — optimized for e-commerce packaging and packaging-on-demand
The eCom profile is specially developed for robust, efficient and adaptable e-commerce packaging, delivering superior performance compared to conventional E-flute profiles.

Advantages of the eCom profile at a glance

• More stable corrugated board
• Up to 60% higher bending stiffness than the E7 profile
• Improved edge crush test (ECT) results
• Superior performance in shaker tests simulating transportation (e.g. ISTA tests with 19 kg or 24 kg loads)

Improved processability

• Improved runnability through automatic high-speed corrugated board production leading to higher flatness
• Better flatness during die-cutting
• Easier handling due to increased stability
• Fewer glue lines

Material savings

• Enables paper savings of about 20 g/m² with medium-weight paper
• Maintains the same stability as conventional E-flute cartons while reducing material usage

CorruMax®
CorruMax® profiles were developed to save energy and raw materials while maintaining or increasing board strength. Profile geometry (height, pitch and shape) has been optimized to improve surface quality, printability and running properties, especially on single-sided machines with a press roll.

Advantages achieved with CorruMax® profiles

• Significantly better surface and improved printability of the corrugated board
• Clearly better running properties on single-sided machines with a press roll
• Lower manufacturing costs
• Reduction in transportation and storage costs
• Innovative D-Flute profile used successfully by customers worldwide

Profile configurations
A variety of profile configurations are available to match specific production and product requirements; BHS provides profile overviews and image-based references for available profile geometries and configurations.

Corrugating roll design — CorruPlus®
CorruPlus® corrugating roll design supports maximum production speeds while improving product quality across light and heavy paper grammages. The design aims to reduce energy costs, extend service life and reduce waste.

What advantages does CorruPlus® offer?

• Supports maximum production speeds
• Higher product quality with light and heavy paper grammages
• Reduced energy costs at unchanged production speed
• Average longer service life due to a significant reduction in sealing elements
• Reduction in waste values
