A method and a system for erecting boxes from box templates of different sizes, said method comprising the steps of: adjusting a size of a frame (5; 105) according to a size of a box template (3; 103) which should be erected; wrapping the box template (3; 103) to be erected around the frame (5; 105); and separating the frame (5; 105) from the box template.

Folding unit for folding cardboard blanks having an end panel, a corner panel and a side panel, said folding unit comprising an end panel folding element actuable to pivot about a first axis and a side panel folding element actuable to pivot about a second axis, said folding unit comprising a corner panel folding element, said corner panel folding element comprising a guiding plate, said guiding plate being actuable to move about at least one axis in order to initiate folding a corner panel about an axis being substantially parallel to said second axis.

A method and device for producing boxes is provided. The boxes include a cut-out shape in the form of the bottom or the lid, with a lateral wall. The lateral wall is formed from a strip having a beginning, an end, and connection tongues. Then, the beginning of the strip is applied and fixed to the lateral surface of a cylindrical female mould having a cross-section corresponding to the cross-section of the box, by means of a male mould. Then, the female mould is turned. The strip is sucked onto the lateral surface and held in place by means of a vacuum. After an adhesive has been applied to the beginning or end of the strip, the beginning and end of the strip are stuck together. Then, a cut-out shape in the form of the bottom or the lid is pressed onto the connection tongues.

Apparatus (10) for automatically producing tubular elements (100) to make smoking articles and/or products for food use, comprising at least one forming unit (12) configured to form the tubular elements (100) starting from shaped flat sheets (101). The forming unit (12) comprises one or more forming devices (29) which are moved by movement means (30) along a work path (PL) closed in a loop, in order to form the tubular elements (100).

A method and device for producing boxes from paper or cardboard is provided. The boxes include a cut-out shape in the form of the bottom or the lid, with a lateral wall stuck thereto. The lateral wall is formed from a strip having a beginning, an end, and connection tongues are bent by up to 90 C. Then, the beginning of the strip is applied and fixed to the lateral surface of a cylindrical female mold having a cross-section corresponding to the cross-section of the box, by means of a male mold. Then, the female mold is turned. The strip is sucked onto the lateral surface and held in place by means of a vacuum. After an adhesive has been applied to the beginning or end of the strip, the beginning and end of the strip are stuck together. Then, a cut-out shape in the form of the bottom or the lid, which has previously had adhesive applied to the periphery thereof, is pressed onto the connection tongues. Once the adhesive has hardened and the vacuum has been stopped, the finished box can be removed from the female mold.

Disclosed is a production machine which is used in producing the cornet cone packages used in the packaging of cornet-type ice-creams and which provides for the cornet cone packages to be horizontally fed and brought into a cone shape by being crimped.
