Switchback GF Series Tray Formers

Tray Former

The Switchback GF (Glue Former) Series of tray and carton formers handle a variety of glue-formed trays & cartons. Dual heads are available, and quick-change tooling sets allow for multiple tray sizes to be run on the same machine.

The Switchback GF Series features controlled, auto-advance carton magazines, and easy-to-maintain dauber style glue dispensing. With one main drive motor, this machine is simple to maintain.

Allen Bradley VFD’s provide the ability to control the speed of the forming heads more precisely for rapid return strokes, and gentler plunge-forming of the blanks. What’s more, Allen Bradley PLC control, operator touch screen, and rugged frame design make this a highly durable platform to reduce labour and board usage.
