PARA SRL's new vertical cardboard storage system

Italian PARA recently developed a vertical cardboard storage system. This is undoubtedly a great news for corrugated cartons and cardboard manufacturers. This system is designed for the manufacture of corrugated boxes and cardboards with a small space in the factory. The first equipment was installed at a factory in Italy in March this year.

Compared with the traditional single-layer cardboard stacking system, the vertical storage system can make the most efficient use of the cardboard storage space and expand the storage space. For those carton and board manufacturers that plan to convert the two-shift production model into a three-shift production model, the system can help you solve many problems. For example, tile lines can be made more flexible. The cardboard boxes produced can be moved back and forth in a standing storage system by transport trucks.

The use of a plastic chain conveyor system on a transport crane means eliminating the cardboard “foot of an elephant” and ensuring that the cardboard is always in a straight state during stacking and storage. The system can arrange the position of the cardboard in order according to the workload of the processing machinery. The stacked cardboard boxes are transported to different processing machines in sequence.

For carton and board manufacturers that have adopted the factory planning system, the storage system can be connected with the factory's computer system. The system is also equipped with an industrial PC and a production data system that can control the transport position and delivery time of the cardboard box. The pictorial order system of the storage system can be updated at any time. For paperboard and carton manufacturers that do not have tracking devices installed in the planning system, they can apply barcodes or RFID systems to paperboards for automatic tracking and inspection.

The head of the company, Mr. Giovanni Para said: "This type of system has been used in other industries for some time. The benefits of using this storage system are very obvious, especially for small businesses, when the increase in production is very necessary for the requirements There is a great deal of help for companies that automate cardboard loading and unloading. The advantage of this system is that the company does not need any preparation. We can connect the system to the factory planning system in the normal state of the factory."

Antonello Alunno Fegatelli, the company's sales manager, stated: “The other key feature of the system is that more memory modules can be installed in the future. These additional modules are not limited by the initial equipment and can be adjusted according to the size of the space.

As Para explained: “The future of the system is very broad. Our initial design is aimed at relatively large and integrated companies. The market response is very good. However, in the past few months, we have found that many small businesses also The system has shown a strong interest, and for small businesses, the system can help companies increase storage space and reduce the burden on the paper feeding department.
