Functional Configuration and Technical Parameters


1. Paper Feeding Section

1.1 Machine Platform Combination

The extended pressure-free paper feeding system adopts a guide roller-free vacuum absorption feeding design, eliminating the need for rubber press rollers. The cardboard is directly conveyed to the printing unit through a suction belt system.
The feeding section is driven by a power input shaft synchronized with the front feed wheel and vacuum cylinder, ensuring smooth operation without deformation of the cardboard. The vacuum system shortens operation time while maintaining simple and convenient fine-tuning.

The separation between paper feeding and leading edge ensures accurate paper positioning and smooth board transport. The lifting platform significantly reduces frictional resistance and cardboard damage.
This machine is highly efficient for different cardboard thicknesses, enabling stable feeding even for warped boards. The fan-type vacuum and high-pressure suction box ensure high-speed operation without slippage.

The suction and transmission rollers are coated with anti-slip rubber for lasting durability. The system solves the problem of excessive wear caused by rubber rollers, ensuring that the board runs smoothly with high feeding accuracy and stability—perfectly meeting the production requirements of carton plants.
