APR Solutions’ Maxi Box series provides versatile solutions for a wide range of applications in the corrugated market, from manual machines to semi-automatic models to fully automatic ‘pallet in pallet out’ models. All can be upgraded with a selection of add-ons such as a variety of taping applicators for double sides tapes, magnetic tapes, tear tapes, silicone tapes as well as offering in-line folding, gluing and taping, delivering solutions that can grow with your business.
“The advantage of the machines being modular is that you can start off with the semi-automatic hand-fed machine. Then as your business grows you can add the Plus 1 auto feeder, then further automate to add the Plus 2 which includes the automatic feeder and automatic stacker,” says Tom Ralph, Founder of Graph-Pak.
“These machines are targeted to people who receive orders on demand for short-run box making, gluing, folding and taping. In the world of E-commerce, many industries will find this machine massively labour-saving. We have sold them to white goods and TV manufacturers, pharmaceutical companies, fashion houses, providers of recreational goods, fruit packers and many other industries that use boxes,” he adds.

After last year’s surge of 11 APR Solutions installations, Graph-Pak is continuing its winning run into 2024 with lots of machines on the way and more being built.
Three machines are headed to Melbourne to be installed this month and next, including the region’s first Maxi Box Plus 2 E-commerce machine and the ninth Box Plus 1 compact folder gluer to be sold by Graph-Pak as well as the first Compact series envelope machine.
This compact folding and gluing machine has been designed for the production of envelopes with a weight up to 300gsm. It features a fully automatic high pile feeder, folding buckle plate with one pocket and manual collector. The folder flap group is ready to add the hot melt gluing system featuring two applicator guns including a RAP double-sided tape applicator. The addition of a RAP strip, tear tape applicator and tipper plate are available as optional extras.
