“Highlights this past year saw machine development growth, with double digits for the Fosber Smart SF5-Belt SingleFacer installed and producing corrugated prod- ucts. The Smart SF5-Belt SingleFacer has proven to be a class above, cost-effective machine. Along with the Smart 400 Pressure ‘Kiss’ Roll SingleFacer technology, the opti- mal machine can be supplied for your application needs, whether for overall aesthetics, cost of ownership, web width considerations, or speed performance. “Development and installation growth was also real- ized on the Quantum Corrugator. The Quantum, ‘No Sin- gleface Festoon Corrugator,’ can produce a spectrum of basis weights with a focus on manufacturing microflutes, lightweighting, plus combined corrugated board with Oyster liner(s) flat. It also offers a flat well bonded sheet produced much simpler than from a traditional corrugator layout. The unique performance and configuration of the Quantum Corrugator allows for the best quality produced corrugated sheet in the market utilizing flexo preprint liner or digitally pre-printed multi-lane/multi-order rolls. In part- nership with Hewlett-Packard (HP) and Erhardt & Leimer (E&L), Fosber and our partners can lead the way to opti- mize digitally printed rolls into a flat corrugated sheet on a Quantum Corrugator. “Whether its triplewall, a triple level DryEnd, Micro- flutes, Lightweighting, difficult papers, graphic papers, narrow web widths, or aesthetics of the sheet is import- ant inside and out, Fosber America has the solution suit- ed for your market needs.
