This is only a brief introduction to the operating process of flute rollers forming corrugated paper. These rollers are usually enclosed in sound-prove panels and are in a hot steamy environment when they are running. So it is not easy to actually see the flute tips doing their work in the production line.

Single Facer Machines are at the Heart of Corrugators.

Larger-size companies will sit down and decide on their overall requirements to cover their short-term, & long-term goals as a company. On the other hand, smaller companies may only plan to upgrade one or two machines at a time, as this meets their production requirements. In all cases, we will advise that customers should keep an eye on the future progress of the company’s expansion and allow for placing new machines in an optimum position. This way it will help them to avoid having to reposition existing or new machines unnecessarily in the future.

Great Quality Range of Single Facer

We can supply a variety of Single Facer machines, which will meet many of our customer’s requirements. Following is a list of the distinct types and sizes of Single Facer machines available. In this range, there are several machines for different speed ranges and cassette models that cater to many flute sizes. With these machines, cassette flute changes are carried out over a 7 to 15-minute time window.

These Single Facer machines run at higher speeds to help meet the high speed & high-volume production-oriented customers.
