The newly installed Bobst Expertfold 110 A2 folder-gluer at Sain Packaging

Sonipat-based pharma packaging company, Sain Packaging recently installed a brand new Bobst Expertfold 110 A2 folder-gluer equipped with an HHS gluing gun, and online carton inspection and ejection system. This is the second Bobst folder-gluer installed by the company in the last six years. “As we have been using a Bobst Visionfold folder-gluer for last six years and are extremely happy with its performance. This was one of the reasons why we invested in a Bobst folder-gluer again,” said Sachin Gupta, director of Sain Packaging.

According to Gupta, before installing the new FFG folder-gluer, Sain Packaging used to produce 15 lacs cartons every day on a 10-hour shift. The productivity has gone up to 25 lacs ever since the new folder-gluer was installed. The company supplies its cartons and inserts to pharma companies in Amritsar, Baddi, Paonta and Roorkee. It also has a small corrugation set up for in-house consumption. The company aims to achieve a turnover of Rs 100 crore in FY2020-21.

Sain Packaging started its operation in 2004 from a small plant in Burari in North Delhi with a single-color press, and within six months, purchased its next press, a used 2-color Heidelberg. Later the company shifted to a new 65,000 square foot plant in Sonipat where it has three 5-color sheetfed offset presses with coater, one 4-color offset press, and four 2-color presses. On the post-press side, Sain Packaging has two Bobst die-cutters, two Maxima die-cutters, three folder-gluers – including one from Bobst, and nearly seven manual die-cutters. Last year, the company had installed a brand new Heidelberg Speedmaster CS 92 5+L press with coater at its Sonipat plant. “There was a strong need for boosting our postpress segment after installing the new Heidelberg press,” said Gupta.

Speaking about the new FFG folder-gluer, Gupta said, “We are impressed with the automatic flipper ejector system which can eject faulty boxes that do not meet quality control specifications with great accuracy at any speed. The automatic flipper ejector system was one of the prime reasons why we chose to invest in the Bobst Expertfold 110 A2. The folder-gluer is also equipped with a Collecting Table and is future-ready with inline braille module – Accubraille and inline quality inspection system – Accucheck, making it ideally suited for the pharma packaging. The quality inspection system with barcode reader from HHS can separate different batches and color variated cartons online.”

The Bobst Expertfold 110 A2 has a top speed of 450 meters/min and can produce cartons ranging between 76 mm and 1100 mm. The folder-gluer is also equipped with all the features required to run 3-ply corrugated cartons equipped with a Baumer HHS gluing gun.
