With the rise of e-commerce and the push for streamlined supply chains, the demand for a universal box making machine has never been higher. Fulfillment centers, warehouses, and packaging operations are looking for smarter, leaner solutions to respond to fluctuating order volumes. The Boxmat Pro is built to support these modern needs by enabling just-in-time production and eliminating the need for large inventories of pre-made boxes.
Benefits of On-Demand Box Making for E-Commerce and Fulfillment Centers
The Boxmat Pro empowers packaging operations to produce boxes in real-time based on current orders. This flexibility eliminates the need to stockpile a wide range of box sizes, reducing warehouse storage requirements and ensuring faster order fulfillment. Whether handling high-volume order days or last-minute shipments, Boxmat Pro adapts seamlessly. Additionally, the Boxmat Pro is ideal for both short and medium runs, enhancing its flexibility for various production needs.
How the Boxmat Pro Streamlines Custom Corrugated Packaging
The Boxmat Pro is a fully automated solution that reduces manual labor and packaging complexity. Its intuitive touchscreen interface and built-in design software allow operators to quickly input box dimensions, which are then set automatically, and produce right-sized packaging with minimal training. For example, one fulfillment center used Boxmat Pro to switch from 12 pre-stocked sizes to on-demand production, cutting packaging time by 35%.
The Boxmat Pro's user-friendly touch screen panel further streamlines the production process, eliminating the need for manual adjustments and allowing for quick selection of box styles and dimensions.
Reduce Packaging Waste and Save on Shipping Costs
By creating custom-fit boxes, the Boxmat Pro reduces void fill and minimizes wasted space. The precision board feed control, featuring servo-drives, soft grip rollers, and double encoders, ensures accurate positioning and prevents skewing of the corrugated cardboard. This helps lower DIM weight charges from carriers, ultimately saving on shipping. Customers have reported up to 30% reductions in packaging waste and 20% lower shipping costs, all while supporting sustainability initiatives.
Fully Automatic Box Making Machine with Digital Controls
Compared to legacy systems, the Boxmat Pro offers a next-generation servo driven automated packaging solution. It enhances digital transformation across operations with programmable logic, real-time diagnostics, and touchscreen functionality. Additionally, the Boxmat Pro features an automatic feeder, enhancing efficiency by eliminating the need for manual feeding of materials.
Automated Setup and Job Changeover with Boxmat Pro
With automated changeover capabilities, the Boxmat Pro switches box styles and sizes with ease. Operators can save frequently used jobs, reducing downtime and supporting multi-SKU environments. Changeovers take just minutes, with all necessary tool setups performed automatically in less than a minute, allowing teams to adapt quickly to new packaging needs.
Touchscreen Controls and Real-Time Monitoring Features
The intuitive touch screen panel offers guided navigation, job previews, and system alerts. Built-in diagnostics and memory settings streamline troubleshooting and operator training. Designed with usability in mind, it empowers teams to run consistent, error-free packaging. All settings for box production can be managed through the touch screen panel.
Precision Scoring and Cutting for Consistent Box Quality
Accurate scoring and cutting mechanisms, including the automatic setup of cutting knives and slotting knives, ensure high-quality box construction. This consistency supports product protection, easy stacking, and a professional appearance. Boxmat Pro maintains tight tolerances for repeatable results, even in large batch runs.
Custom Box Manufacturing for Small to Large Runs
From short-run prototyping to larger batch jobs, the Boxmat Pro is a box making machine revolutionizing scalability. It eliminates the cost and delay of die-cut tooling, making it ideal for businesses of all sizes. The Boxmat Pro supports run and serial production efficiently.
Make Single or Batch Boxes with No Die Required
The Boxmat Pro enables rapid design changes and fast prototyping without tooling. This eliminates lead times and costs associated with custom dies. It’s perfect for last-minute orders and product testing. Additionally, the Boxmat Pro eliminates the need for manual setup and can produce one box or batch boxes efficiently.
Flexible Box Styles from RSC to Die-Cut Alternatives
Operators can create a wide variety of box styles, including RSC, HSC, FEFCO formats, flap boxes, and more. Optional modules expand capabilities, offering handle cuts, perforations, and gluing for fully assembled boxes. Operators can select a preprogrammed box style from the touch screen panel, eliminating the need for manual setup and allowing for quick and efficient production.
Ideal for Short-Run, Just-in-Time Packaging Needs
Short-run and serial production supports seasonal or niche product packaging without overstocking. It’s especially beneficial for contract packagers, 3PLs, and custom manufacturers.
