Large-scale production: Choose a fully automatic box making machine, which is efficient and suitable for large-volume orders.
Small and medium-scale production: Choose a semi-automatic box making machine, which is low-cost and highly flexible.
Production speed:
Choose the running speed of the equipment according to the order requirements (such as how many cartons are produced per minute).
Customized requirements:
If you need to produce cartons of multiple specifications or shapes, choose a multifunctional or highly adjustable device.
- Determine the type of carton
Carton specifications:
Choose the appropriate equipment according to the size of the carton (length, width, height).
Carton shape:
Standard carton: Choose a regular carton making machine.
Complex shape carton: Choose a carton making machine with die-cutting function.
Carton material:
Make sure the machine can handle the thickness and material of the cardboard you use (such as cardboard, corrugated paper, etc.).

Accuracy:
Make sure the equipment can complete the processes such as creasing, folding, gluing, etc. with high precision to ensure the quality of the carton.
Degree of automation:
Fully automatic equipment is suitable for high-efficiency production, and semi-automatic equipment is suitable for flexibility and cost control.
Stability:
Choose equipment with stable operation and low failure rate to reduce downtime.
Easy to operate:
The equipment operation interface should be simple and intuitive, so that workers can quickly get started.
