Hörauf Set Sights on High-Profile Debut at SinoFoldingCarton 2011

【Press release】

Hörauf Set Sights on High-Profile Debut at SinoFoldingCarton 2011

SinoFoldingCarton 2011 will be held at the China International Exhibition Center in Beijing from July 6 to July 8, where Hörauf China Machinery Co. Ltd. will be at Booth 4D51-60. Hörauf, a German binding and packaging equipment manufacturer, will display its automated machine for making high-end case products: the BDM 20 high quality automated case maker.

The BDM 20 high-quality automated case maker is a major model of the case－making equipment series recently rolled out by Hörauf China – a wholly owned subsidiary of Hörauf Germany - to the Asian market. The machine has the same elegant design, perfect structural function and intuitive operation concepts of the German original. Its main accessories and components are all German-made. Its capacity, together with the quality of the finished items it produces, are part of what make it the leader in China’s binding and packaging market.

In the two years since Hörauf established its Shanghai subsidiary, the company has supplied around twenty BDM 20s to high profile foreign companies, public and private, in China. These machines have manufactured numerous fine products that have gone on to be sold locally and internationally. The items produced include bookcases, photo albums, files, calendar stands and packaging gift boxes.

In Germany, Hörauf has seven decades of machine manufacturing experience. The company stands for the highest level of technology in binding and packaging machinery. For over 30 years, Hörauf has designed and produced case makers. Currently, there are more than 1,000 Hörauf-made machines in operation around the world.

The BDM 20 is part of Hörauf’s series of classic case makers. Compared to similar types of equipment, it offers superior design, ease of use, precision of finished products and operational reliability. The machine’s spec and technological components come from Germany. Additionally, technical experts from the German office have relocated to Shanghai to share their know-how with local Chinese Hörauf staff.

Hörauf has designed several optional items to complement the BDM 20, in order to keep pace with developments in the Chinese market. These, too, use original Hörauf technology. The various options, including asymmetrical cases made of up to 7-layer-board; thin board of 0.6mm; cases with less than 1mm hinge width; special PU extensions to finalize the cover corners; round corner devices and padded cases, are made to satisfy the individual demands of customers.

The case maker, with its advanced core case-making technology, has broken through the traditionally closed hard cover book case market to make stationery (files, photo albums, account ledgers, game boards, desk calendars, high-quality diaries, address books and certificates). It is also used to manufacture packaging (CD and cell phone cases; high-end tobacco boxes; wine and tea and moon cake boxes).

As China’s standard of living rises, demand for varied stationery and packaging boxes is also growing. Today, a rising number of stationery and packaging producers need efficient, high-quality case makers that offer enhanced capacity, better quality and can make products that are easy to process. This equipment supports low cost manufacturing and boosts competitiveness in the market. These companies hope to consolidate their market position and expand profits by having better equipment than their competitors. Hörauf’s BDM 20 is the kind of device to help them realize this ambition.

The BDM 20 offers numerous advantages:

• It can manufacture up to 60 cases per minute;
• The front- and backboards are hopper fed into the machine and precisely registered by pushers to perfectly align with the cover material. Cover material is also hopper loaded continuously without stopping the machine, transferred by gripper from the bottom of the pile to the gripper cylinder for adhesive application in perfect register;
• Board and cover are combined in a continuous rotating motion in perfect register. Next, they are processed through the rub-down station for bubble-free gluing;
• The cases are then transported to folding and pressing stations by means of a lifting transport assembly: a balanced reciprocating arm with suction heads, which allows for high production and precision and no scratches on the cover;
• In the downward movement of the transport suckers, the cover material extending over the board is folded 90 degree, and then drawn over the board with brush covered folding bars and the corner tucking fingers to ensure tight and accurate folds.

The varied, intuitive designs of the BDM 20, such as it’s gluing application with rubble blanket underneath; its glue viscosity controller; swinging board feeder; board loading; cover loading and its centrally located finished case unloading and operation panel, have greatly improved the machine’s operational efficiency, while reducing labor and start-up costs. The BDM 20, which also offers stable operation and long service life, has a better cost performance than similar pieces of equipment. With the setup of Hörauf China, customers are guaranteed prompt and professional after-sales service, as well as efficient spare parts supply.

Hörauf China will showcase its BDM 20 high-quality automated case maker at SinoFoldingCarton 2011. The machine represents a major change in case making technology. Hörauf believes this is the right piece of equipment to help businesses set up quickly; boost market share and improve profitability.

Shanghai Horizon’s Groundbreaking Solutions for Electronic Supervision Codes

【Press release】

Shanghai Horizon’s Groundbreaking Solutions for Electronic Supervision Codes

SinoFoldingCarton 2011 will be held at the China International Exhibition Center from July 6 to July 8 in Beijing. Over 300 exhibitors are expected to display their leading folding carton production equipment, consumables and technologies across an exhibition area of 20,000sqm. This year, for the first time ever, the show will feature a new dedicated segment for electronic supervision codes. Here, visitors will be able to assess the best machines and technologies for applying electronic supervision codes to medicines.
One of the leading Chinese suppliers of solutions for applying electronic supervision codes, Maintop Technology Development, recently confirmed its participation in the exhibition. Folding carton industry professionals keen to learn more about the caliber of Maintop’s products can note the company’s glowing testimonial from Shanghai Horizon Printing Corporation, one of Maintop’s clients. “Maintop consistently provides outstanding technologies and services”, says Lu Rongcheng, Marketing Manager at Shanghai Horizon.

Shanghai Horizon Printing Corporation was established in January 1999. In August 2004, it split from its parent company, Shanghai Qiangsheng Group. Following several years of R & D, Horizon changed direction and joined the medicine packaging sector. Today, with two production lines, it already has a daily output of one million small boxes.
China’s State Food & Drug Administration (SFDA) recently issued new directives on the complete electronic supervision of basic medicines. In response, many medicine box printers have also shifted their focus to the electronic supervision codes. Shanghai Horizon is one such company. In March 2011, Horizon began to work with Maintop Technology, one of HP’s OEM partners. Maintop now provides Horizon with its new printing system for medicine supervision codes.

“We started planning for the introduction of new code generators in early February of 2011,” says Mr. Lu. Explaining what influence Shanghai Horizon to opt for Maintop Technology’s generator, he added: “HP’s international reputation, together with its high caliber code-generating technology, were key factors for us.”

“When the equipment was first put into operation, we had a few problems syncing the two platforms,” Mr. Lu said. “Fortunately, we managed to resolved these in just one month by working with Maintop.” According to Mr. Lu, both of Horizon’s production lines are now operational 24 hours a day and the daily output of supervision codes is approximately 40,000 to 50,000. Each code produced is of excellent quality.
Maintop’s after-sales service impressed Mr. Lu and the rest of the Horizon team. He revealed that anytime a problem occurred, the Maintop technicians were quickly on-site to offer support. “It’s not just that the Maintop staff are efficient,” continued Mr. Lu, “We also appreciate the fact that the company’s operation interface is so intuitive and very user-friendly. Our operators basically mastered the process in a single day. This was obviously a big part of improving our overall efficiency.”

In Horizon’s workshops, visitors may notice that the temperature is strictly controlled. This is so no powder granules fall from the paper and block the code generator’s nozzle. When the six nozzles are in simultaneous operation, printing speeds can reach 70 meters per minute, as each nozzle prints 70 to 100 codes a minute.

Shanghai Horizon has also introduced a new identification system to pick out repeat codes received from Maintop in real-time. The system quickly detects, then deletes these duplicated codes.

In delivering his concluding thoughts on Shanghai Horizon’s collaboration with Maintop, Mr. Lu, declared himself more than satisfied with the quality of Maintop’s code generator. “The recognition rate is always at the optimal, or second best, level. The entire system works quickly, efficiently and stably. It also supports low cost production, which is perfect for what Shanghai Horizon needs.”

SFC 21011: Highlighting Developmental Successes in the Manufacturing

【Press release】

SinoFoldingCarton 2011: Highlighting Developmental Successes in the Manufacture of Support Equipment & Consumables

Due to rising labor costs, full automation in carton box manufacturing is a rapidly growing trend. Automating major production equipment, a key goal for manufacturers, is now at a significantly advanced stage. To better improve efficiency in carton box production, more companies are enhancing the automation elements of their support and post-processing equipment. New strappers and sprayers, as well as their related equipment and consumables, have emerged in response to the growing demand for greater automation. Using a greater degree of automation to improve the efficiency with which relatively small production functions are performed can be hugely beneficial for manufacturers, even to the extent of boosting profits.

An auto-strapper is a peripheral piece of equipment that improves efficiency in the post-process flow. This machine is truly a “low investment; high benefit” item. Its advantages include automatic adjustment of strapping size; free adjustment of the length/type of sheet; stable operation and reduced labor costs. These advantages have helped the auto-strapper become the most popular piece of post-press processing support equipment.

Similarly, the emergence of the auto-sprayer represents something of a revolution in gluing. Auto-sprayers, with their flexible and accurate gluing, as well as the guaranteed quality of the products they produce, are gradually replacing traditional gluing solutions. The advancement of other types of board-making and platemaking equipment and technologies, like laser cutting machines and laser plate engraving systems, also adds to the improvement and increased automation of carton box manufacturing equipment.

SinoFoldingCarton 2011 will be held from July 6 to July 8 at the China International Exhibition Center in Beijing. As the leading trade event for folding carton equipment, consumables and technologies in China, the exhibition will attract the world’s top makers of support equipment and consumables to evaluate a comprehensive array of folding carton processing solutions. Visitors will be able to satisfy the full range of their purchasing requirements under one roof.

In addition to bringing together manufacturers of essential production equipment, producers of support equipment and consumables (Senmao, Hexin, Shengyuan, Yongqing, Valco, Nuoxin and HHS) are also set to feature at the show.
