common bottlenecks and improve overall performance. Designed to meet the demanding needs of high-volume boxmakers, the MPF ensures that the production process starts smoothly and stays that way. With the ability to feed sheets at speeds of up to 400 boxes per minute, it mini- mizes front-end slowdowns by delivering a steady flow of material to the EVOL. Its versatile design handles a range of sheet sizes, and features such as batch stacking, con- tinuous shingle feeding, and a robust lifting device en- sure both single- and double-wall sheets are fed reliably. When paired with the EVOL series, the results speak for themselves. Known for precision, speed, and reliability, the EVOL is a trusted solution for high-speed boxmaking. With 225 successful installations and counting, the EVOL continues to set the standard for reliable boxmaking, with features like advanced folding systems, precise lead edge feeding, and the ability to produce up to 24,000 boxes per hour in single-slotter configurations. “At MHIA, we go beyond simply providing machines— we offer integrated solutions designed to help customers maintain peak performance over the long term. A great example of this is the Production Improvement Program (PIP), a four-month consultancy designed to help boxmak- ers get the most out of their equipment. By working di- rectly with customers, MHIA’s expert technicians provide hands-on training, analyze performance, and offer proac- tive maintenance strategies. “PIP isn’t just about fixing problems—it’s about prevent- ing them. Using CNC diagnostic tools, the program helps identify wear and tear early, minimizing unplanned down- time and helping manufacturers sustain high efficiency well beyond the program’s conclusion. “What truly drives long-term success in corrugated manufacturing is a partnership approach—one that prior- itizes understanding each customer’s unique production challenges and works toward tailored solutions. It’s not just about delivering advanced machinery; it’s about pro- viding the right tools, insights, and support to help manu- facturers grow and thrive over time. “A great example of this approach is the pairing of the MPF Prefeeder with the EVOL boxmaker series, supported by programs like MHIA’s Production Improvement Program (PIP). Together, they illustrate how the right combination of technology and expert guidance can unlock greater effi- ciency and sustained performance. By focusing on close collaboration and proactive problem-solving, these part- nerships help manufacturers adapt to changing demands while keeping operations running smoothly. “As MHIA sets its sights on 2025, it reflects on a year of progress defined by innovation, collaboration, and a stead- fast commitment to its customers. From the integration of advanced technologies to tailored support initiatives, MHIA is poised to help manufacturers stay competitive and achieve sustainable growth in an evolving industry.” For more information, visit mhi.com/group/mhiacorr.
