Since the introduction of the first carton processing machinery in 1967, Mitsubishi has successfully sold and installed 750 sets of equipment worldwide. In 1982, Mitsubishi Corporation developed the world's first computer-controlled water-based folding folder machine "Summit." With its extensive experience in new technologies and based on customer needs and opinions, Mitsubishi launched the latest EVOL, a water-based folding folder machine, in September 2003. As the newest member of the company's water-based folding folder machine, EVOL has a number of innovative designs that combine processing speed and start-up time, and increase printing and pasting accuracy. The EVOL processing speed is 350 cartons/minute, the speed is stable, and only two operators are required to operate. The warm-up time only takes 2-3 minutes, and only one test box is required for normal production.
The main features of EVOL include:
Newly designed advanced paper feed section with overlapping rollers (arranged in a zigzag fashion), precise paper feeding, and an integrated torque balancer suitable for all kinds of paperboards installed on the feed section drive system to enhance the accuracy of paper feeding Single-belt vacuum conveyor system and independent driving device installed on each printing cylinder ensure high-quality printing effect Flexible adaptability to a variety of carton production requirements Two types of stamps with thickness of 7.2 mm and 3.2 mm can be used without a pad . The thinner die not only saves the die cost, but also makes the operation easier. The chamber scraper system can always maintain a stable printing accuracy at any working speed, achieves excellent printing results, and reduces the amount of ink lost each time the ink is replaced. To 150cc
Mitsubishi's patented measuring rollers and forming belts are equipped with a speed control device and automatic folding box guide adjustment function, which can provide stable folding box accuracy in combination with a special system that can adjust the indentation effect online, and can handle various sizes of cardboard counts. The advanced stacking design of the discharge device minimizes fish tailings on the carton (even in the case of die cutting and external carton lids.)
Auto-start and print test modes allow order switching with minimal manual operation. Before the next set of orders are produced, the machine will automatically slow down the speed while guaranteeing the production of the existing orders; by the end of the last carton, the machine will automatically stop production, re-set the next group of orders, and automatically test Carton production CNC (Computerized Digital Control) can remember 50,000 repetitive orders and minimize order switching time. At the same time, CNC also has teaching, maintenance and troubleshooting functions.
EVOL has been exhibited at the SuperCorrExpo in Atlanta. Since the launch in 2004, it has successfully sold 22 units.
