Square trays

How Lantech tray erectors make square trays

From the moment a blank enters the magazine until it exits as a properly formed tray sealed on 4 sides, it is under complete control. A unique pickup frame pulls the blank into a horizontal position, and four snap-lock clips transport it to the forming position while glue is applied. The blank is forced through the forming unit, and the sides of the tray are pressed simultaneously on all sides.
