BOGRAMA adds an important component to its machine portfolio with the NEW Automated Card Production System for inline die-cutting, collating and stacking of playing cards. A wide range of cards including playing cards, parlour game cards, trading cards and sports cards can be die-cut, stacked and delivered in one step.
The system consists of the market leading BSR 550 Servo rotary die-cutter, feeding into the newly developed ACC 550 HS Automatic Card Collator.
The cards are die-cut nick-free, stripped out inline, shingled and fed to the ACC 550 HS Card Collator via a conveyor belt. The ACC 550 HS stacks each row into a complete deck and feeds it to a downstream packaging system that may include overwrappers, banding machines, packaging machines or packing table conveyors.
The system is modular and versatile. For example, by changing the delivery unit to a shingle stream delivery like the SAB 550, the system can produce folding cartons or box covers. Furthermore, the die technology is very advanced and allows through cutting, kiss-cutting, creasing or perforating on the same magnetic die plate.
With production rates of up to 2,000 decks per hour, the highest quality cutting, makeready times in under 1 hour and an automated delivery that reduces labor to a single person, the BOGRAMA Automated Card Production System has the ROI needed to be the market leader.
