Corrugated board boxes are the most familiar packaging material and are a key part of the
world's logistics and commodity distribution systems. They are also considered to be up-to-date,
earth-friendly products that cope with difficult global environmental problems in modern society
because they can be recycled after use as one of the recyclable packaging materials.
Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Printing & Packaging Machinery, Ltd. has been manufacturing
corrugating machinery since 1955, and has produced corrugators that make corrugated boards and
box making machines that make corrugated board boxes for customers all over the world.
We have developed and brought to the market the EVOL series of box making machines
sequentially in order to respond the higher production capability needs from the market: The
EVOL84 (capable of making 400 blanks per minute with a maximum width of approximately 84
inches (2140 mm)) in 2012 and the EVOL100 (capable of making 400 blanks per minute with a
maximum width of approximately 100 inches (2555 mm)) in 2015. The production of 100-inch
width boxes at the speed of 400 blanks per minute is the world's fastest. This paper presents the
