Semi-Automatic Carton Slotter
The Semi-Automatic Carton Slotter (also known as a manual slotting and creasing machine) is engineered for corrugated box plants requiring flexible, high-precision slotting, scoring, and corner cutting. Designed for low-to-medium volume production and rapid job changeovers, this machine processes single-wall, double-wall, and heavy triple-wall corrugated boards (Flutes A, B, C, E, AB, BC).
Description
The Semi-Automatic Carton Slotter (also known as a manual slotting and creasing machine) is engineered for corrugated box plants requiring flexible, high-precision slotting, scoring, and corner cutting. Designed for low-to-medium volume production and rapid job changeovers, this machine processes single-wall, double-wall, and heavy triple-wall corrugated boards (Flutes A, B, C, E, AB, BC).
Built on in-house CNC machining foundations with strict dimensional control, our manufacturing process ensures frame rigidity and mechanical alignment, delivering stable slotting depth and clean cuts without crushing the corrugated flutes.

Key Features & Visual Guide Reference
Visual Inspection Guide: Review product media for precision-ground knife edges, robust tool holders, and cast iron frame stability during physical evaluations.
High-Carbon Alloy Steel Slotting Knives: Blades are manufactured from 9CrSi / SKH-9 alloy steel, vacuum heat-treated to HRC 58-62, ensuring burr-free edge cuts and extended sharpening intervals.
Integrated Slotting & Scoring Unit: Simultaneous slotting, creasing, and corner trimming in a single pass, reducing handling time and ensuring alignment between creases and slots.
Planetary Gear Phase Mechanism: 360-degree phase adjustment (electrical digital control or manual handwheel) allows exact length and width positioning without stopping the drive motor.
Heavy-Duty Cast Iron Framework: Side walls and cutter bases cast from HT250 gray iron, stress-relieved via annealing to eliminate structural vibration at full operating load.
Precision Lead Screw Positioning: Slotting heads slide on hardened linear guide rails driven by precision lead screws for smooth, backlash-free transverse adjustment.
Applications
Standard Slotted Cartons (RSC): Batch production of transport packaging and shipping boxes.
Die-Cut & Special-Shape Boxes: Custom folding cartons requiring targeted slotting and creasing configurations.
Heavy-Duty Triple-Wall Packaging: Slotting industrial-grade heavy corrugated sheets used for machinery and bulk goods packaging.
Box Plant Backup Production: Serving as a flexible secondary line for short-run orders, minimizing downtime on automated inline flexo folder-gluers.
Configuration & Customization
Working Width Options:
Available in 1200mm, 1600mm, 2000mm, and custom widths up to 2500mm.
Drive Configuration:
Standard inverter-controlled AC motor drive or optional servo-driven positioning for automated multi-knife setup.
Electrical Standards:
Control panels built with Schneider/Siemens low-voltage components, compliant with CE / UL control cabinet wiring standards.
Pneumatic Control:
Air-operated clutch and brake systems integrated with Airtac / SMC pneumatic cylinders for responsive engagement.
Quality Control & Manufacturing Standards
Machining Precision: Main wall plates and cutter shafts processed on floor-type CNC boring and milling machines to maintain parallelism within 0.03 mm.
Dynamic Balancing: All cutter shafts undergo high-speed dynamic balancing tests (G2.5 grade) to minimize operational vibration and bearing wear.
Factory Inspection Protocol: Every machine undergoes a 4-hour continuous dry-run test and a simulated board-feeding test, checking slotting depth consistency, electrical safety insulation resistance (≥ 20 MΩ), and noise levels (< 80 dB).
Installation & Technical Support
Supplied with complete English technical manuals, electrical schematic diagrams, hydraulic/pneumatic layouts, and consumable parts lists.
Detailed pre-installation foundation drawings provided; remote video commissioning support or on-site engineer dispatch available upon agreement.
Critical wear items (slotting knives, springs, drive belts) stocked in standard sizes for dispatch within 48 hours.
