Magellan Boxmaker
Machine Grades
To further enhance the versatility of the Magellan Boxmaking system, the
machine is now offered in three control grades to better match the production
requirements of the customer.
Base Model: This is a new offering which is the most
economically priced boxmaker. While maintaining all of the features that make
the Magellan so innovative, this model relies most on the operator for set-up
control. The feed table, feed roll pressure, slot and score placement are all
provided by the operator. The board movement is controlled via an hydraulic
motor. This model does not retain set-up data for retrieval.
Standard Model: The most popular of the models
available, this model distributes the set-up process between the operator and
machine control. While still relying on the operator to set the feed table and
feed roll pressure, this model controls the placement of the score, slots and
score pressure automatically. In addition, this model also features an
industrial PC (personal computer) with touch screen control. Board movement on
this model is controlled via and electric servo. Due to the addition of the
PC, this model saves set-up data for later retrieval via part number.
Auto-Set Model: This is the most sophisticated of
the Magellan models available. In this configuration, all axis required for
set-up are controlled by the processor. This includes feed table guides, feed
roll pressure, score placement, slot placement, and score pressure. This model
also incorporates an electric servo to control board movement through the
machine. Again, this model incorporates industrial PC control and stores
set-up data for later retrieval.
