Kolbus America announced the recent installation of their newest innovation — the BX Motion, at Mitchel-Lincoln’s Cavendish facility in Montreal, Quebec. The BX Motion will add new capabilities and options for the customers of Mitchel-Lincoln. The all-in-one, ultimate short-run, quick- set corrugated box making system, was seen for the first time at the CCE show in Munich in early 2023.
Designed from the ground up, it offers build quality and reliability. The BX Motion is flexible, taking stock sheets and cutting, creasing, slotting, digitally printing, and finally gluing the boxes, in one seamless process.
The modular design of the BX Motion Pro enables each machine to be precisely configured to individual customer’s requirements, even down to the sequence of processes. They can produce customized single, double, or triple wall boxes with selectable tool configurations, adapted to their specific production needs.
Key Features of the BX Motion include:
• Selectable tool configurations allowing users to choose from various tool configurations to ensure optimal performance and flexibility
• Extensive box style options with more than 50 FEFCO box styles, enabling businesses to create diverse packaging solutions to meet customer demands
• Digital printing capability supporting high-quality branding and customization on corrugated boxes
• Quick setup time of under 60 seconds
• Automatic loading and stacking
• Inline glue strip application to simplify the gluing process, using a HSS glue head to further reduce finishing processes and material handling.
• Multi-Out Production: The ability to produce up to three boxes in the width of the machine maximizes production efficiency for small and medium size boxes.
“The BX Motion sets a new benchmark in short run, on-demand box making,” said Jeff Dietz, President at Kolbus America. “Its modular design, coupled with the ability to customize tool configurations, makes it a truly adaptable solution for businesses seeking efficient and flexible box manufacturing.”
