SCHEME ON CORRUGATED BOARD AND BOXES

INTRODUCTION:

         This project profile in detail foresees setting up of unit to produce corrugated board and boxes.
         Paper and paper products are versatile industrial raw materials with a wide variety of application in this era and due to shortage of softwood, wooden packing cases are more and more replaced with corrugated board- boxes and cartons. As more and more materials are coming in paper packing, availability of raw materials are also on the increase. Thus recycling of waste paper is in demand, which can be used to produce products like paperboards, binding sheets, sweet box cartons and other packing cartons.
         80% of industrial packaging is done by carton boxes due to effective cushioning, light weight, easy to fabricate, easy for storing, easy for disposal, no strapping necessary, printing and advertising advantages, must in export market, recyclable etc.

MARKET:

         Corrugated board boxes are used in different area of packing in goods such as: Breweries, Glass wares, Cigarettes, Pharmaceuticals, Biscuits, Milk & Milk products, Soaps, Cosmetics, Tea & Coffee, Hosiery, shoe & footwear industry, toys etc.,

        6.      The information supplied is based on a standard type of manufacturing activity viable for model type of manufacturing activity.
        7.      The information supplied is based on a standard type of manufacturing activity utilizing conventional techniques of production at optimum level of performance.
        8.      Costs in machinery and equipment, raw materials and the selling prices of the finished products etc., are generally prevailing at the time of preparation of the project profiles and may vary depending upon various factors.
        9.      Whereas some names of manufacturers, suppliers of machinery and equipment, raw materials etc. are indicated at the end of the profile, those are by no means exclusive or exhaustive.

IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE:

         Normally eighteen months are required for the complete implementation of the project, including machinery erection, raw materials procurement etc.

PRODUCTION DETAIL AND PROCESS TECHNIQUES:

Corrugated Board:

         Corrugated board is made with a corrugated sheet of paper attached to the facing of flat paper, usually kraft by adhesives. In our country, it is mostly produced over a single facer machine here two paper reels are run together, one layer of paper becomes corrugated after passing through the heated rolls and the other is brought into contact with it after the former having glued at the tips. Thus both get pasted together and are wound in rolls. The resulting roll is now known as single face/ corrugated roll/board. By cutting this roll with board cutter and then gluing the corrugated side by a pasting machine and placing 3rd ply of paper over it double faced or 3-ply corrugated board is produced, this board is kept under pressure in a sheet pressing machines for some time for setting of the wet glued sheets. Similarly board can be pasted to form thicker boards i.e.; 5-ply, 7-ply and 9-ply etc.

Corrugated Board Boxes:

         The process of manufacturing boxes or containers constitutes five operations.

        i)         Slitting and Longitudinal Cutting
        ii)        Creasing
        iii)       Slotting
        iv)       Flap or Corner Cutting
        v)        Stitching
         After passing the sheet through these operations, a box or container is ready, slitting and creasing operations can simultaneously by carried over a 4 bar rotary cutting and creasing machine. The trimmed and creased sheet is slotted and flap cut on an Eccentric Slotted Machine. Finally, it is either stitched over a stitching machine or glued/taped manually.
For partition boxes the half slotted boards are used which can conveniently be produced over a partition spotter machines.
