Structure Design of Front-Edge Paper Feeder in the Production Line of Corrugated Carton

The corrugated carton as a common packaging tool is usually produced in production line. It is crucial to design the structure of paper feeding unit in the line which has a large influence on the accuracy of subsequent printing and cutting position. Front-edge paper feeder is the standard way to transport corrugated boards in the current market. Firstly, working principle of front-edge paper feeder is introduced. And then the intermittent driving and lifting mechanism are analyzed in detail. The intermittent driving mechanism is a combined mechanism by the cam indexing and gear mechanism. The lifting mechanism can flexibly adjust the time and lifting height to rise the corrugated board. The structure of front-edge paper feeder is designed with high accuracy and speed in this paper.
