Provided herein is a machine for forming a container from a blank including a tray and a lid. The machine has an upstream end where the blank is loaded and a downstream end where the container is discharged and includes a frame, a pre-forming assembly, and a mandrel assembly. The pre-forming assembly is configured to partially form the lid and the tray by folding each of a plurality of side panels of the blank and further form the tray by partially folding a front panel assembly of the blank, the front panel assembly including a front panel and a roll-over panel. The mandrel assembly is mounted to the frame and configured to engage a bottom panel of the tray to form each of a plurality of corners of the tray and fold the roll-over panel to form a front wall of the container.

A blank used for making a rapidly erected and collapsible container is disclosed. The container is movable between a flat configuration and a box configuration. The blank comprises a primary panel and a secondary panel, which are hingedly coupled to each other. The secondary panel is hingedly coupled to a secondary flap. The secondary flap is hingedly coupled to a terminal portion. The terminal portion is hingedly coupled to a tab. The tab is configured to fold towards the terminal portion. The secondary flap is configured to fold towards the secondary panel. The tab is configured to connect to the primary panel. Embodiments foster a blank used for making a container that rapidly, easily, and conveniently transitions from a flat configuration to being ready for use in a box configuration. Moreover, the container provides speed and efficiency without compromising cost effectiveness and structural integrity.

A corrugated fiberboard printing device includes a protection device which regulates approaching of a corrugated fiberboard within a predetermined distance against an inkjet head, and a controller. The protection device includes multiple regulation devices which are juxtaposed in a width direction of the corrugated fiberboard, and a movement mechanism which moves each of the multiple regulation devices in the width direction. The controller includes a specific column setting unit which is set to classify a specific column, in which a printing quality is less influenced even when the specific column is regulated by the regulation device, with respect to the corrugated fiberboard in a sheet width direction based on order information, and a movement mechanism control unit which controls the operation of the movement mechanism and moves each of the regulation devices so as to regulate the corrugated fiberboard in the specific column.

A method of making a container for consumer goods is provided, the method including: folding a first cellulose-based layer to form a package, the package defining a housing for the consumer goods; forming an outer wrapper, the outer wrapper including a second cellulose-based layer having an inner surface defining an inner area and an outer surface defining an outer area, a first polymeric layer provided on the inner surface, and a second polymeric layer provided on less than 30 percent of the outer surface, the first polymeric layer and the second polymeric layer being heat-sealable layers; wrapping the package with the outer wrapper, the wrapping being made so that the first polymeric layer is provided on an inner side of the second cellulose-based layer; and heating the package and the outer wrapper to seal the outer wrapper on the package, forming the container.

The present disclosure relates to a package for a delivery system. The package includes a container and a lid hingedly connected to the container about a hinge line, and an inner frame received in the container. The inner frame has a portion that extends from the container which is received in the lid when the lid is closed. The package further includes a raised seal line that is formed on the portion of the inner frame and/or on an inner surface of the lid. The raised seal line is configured to minimize a gap between the portion of the inner frame and the inner surface of the lid when the lid is closed. The present disclosure also relates to a method of manufacturing the package.

A machine for automatically manufacturing customized packaging items (I) from continuous laminar material, comprising at least one cutting and creasing unit (2) to form sheets (F) of laminar material with a plurality of cuttings and/or bendinglines (C), at least one variable-geometry forming unit (5) for forming the sheet (F) so cut and creased into a package (I) of predetermined dimensions, a multifunctional robotized manipulator (24) for automatically picking up one sheet (F) at a time from the cutting and creasing unit (2) and feeding the forming unit (5), the manipulator (24) being designed to automatically adapt to the predetermined dimensions of the packaging (I) on the forming unit (5) and interact therewith to form the packaging (I).

A machine for forming a container from a blank assembly including a tray blank and lid blank includes a frame, a mandrel assembly mounted to the frame, a pre-folding assembly, and a glue panel presser assembly. The mandrel assembly includes a first mandrel and a second mandrel positioned downstream from the first mandrel. The first mandrel has an external shape complimentary to an internal shape of at least a first portion of the container, and the second mandrel has an external shape complimentary to an internal shape of at least a second portion of the container. The pre-folding assembly is configured to fold a first portion of the blank assembly around the first mandrel to form a partially formed container. The glue panel presser assembly includes a first presser plate configured to form a first manufacturer joint, and a second presser plate configured to form a second manufacturer joint.

A method and an apparatus for realizing cartons for packing includes feeding a cardboard band (2) for packing along an advancement direction (A) which is parallel to the development direction of the cardboard band (2) and making a first score line (II) and a second score line (12) on the cardboard band (2), so as: to identify a central sector; a first lateral sector (4), and a second lateral sector (5). The method further includes identifying regions of band (8) on the carton (2), making on each region of band (8) at least a first cut (21), a second cut (22), a third cut (23) and a fourth cut (24) oriented transversally so that a first closing wing (49), a first reinforcing wing (51) a second reinforcing wing (52), a second closing wing (50), a third reinforcing wing (53) and a fourth reinforcing wing (54) are defined. The band of carton (2) is cut transversally so as to separate the regions of band (8) from one another, thus obtaining cartons (I) for packing.

A container for holding at least one article includes a body extending at least partially around an interior of the container, a closed top engaged with the body, a closed bottom engaged with the body, and a barrier member positioned in the interior of the container, the barrier member comprising a laminate structure that includes at least one polymeric layer with an uninterrupted lower portion.
