Single Facer Corrugator

The Single Facer Corrugator is engineered for high-throughput production environments that demand maximum agility and rapid configuration adjustments. At the heart of its design is a specialized cassette-style modular architecture, enabling operators to perform full flute-profile changeovers in as little as 5 to 10 minutes. By streamlining the changeover process to a simple, button-actuated sequence, this system minimizes downtime, significantly elevating overall facility productivity and operational flexibility.

The system replaces traditional, labor-intensive roller swaps with a refined, electric-trolley delivery method. The flute-roller cassette module is transported via a dedicated trolley and secured to the machine base using an integrated hydraulic locking system. This tool-free design-governed by a PLC-integrated HMI-ensures precise, repeatable seating of the rollers, enhancing both safety and mechanical accuracy. This modularity allows the Single Facer Corrugator to support a vast range of flute geometries (A, B, C, E, F, G), ensuring that the production line remains adaptable to evolving market requirements.

• Vacuum-Stabilized Fluting: The medium is securely held against the main corrugating roller via a 180° negative-pressure zone. This vacuum-suction design, powered by high-efficiency industrial fans, maintains flute stability even at extreme line speeds.

• Minimal Surface Marking: The lower corrugated roller features an optimized suction slot width of ≥2.0mm, which drastically reduces the visibility of traditional board-surface "stripe marks," resulting in a superior aesthetic finish.

• Vibration Isolation: The system utilizes a universal-joint transmission design to effectively decouple the machine from primary vibration sources. This enhances component longevity, ensures a smoother transmission of torque, and increases the overall reliability of the corrugating process.

• Substrate Preparation: The inclusion of an integrated flute-paper steam-shower unit conditions the medium prior to fluting, effectively improving sheet flatness and enabling higher sustained line speeds.
