This MBO T 500-4-F is a flexo-folder gluer — a machine used in the packaging and corrugated board industry to print, fold, and glue flat blanks into finished boxes in a single continuous pass. Sometimes referred to as a folder gluer or box gluer, this type of machine is a core production unit in carton and corrugated packaging manufacturing. MBO is a German manufacturer with a long-standing reputation in folding and finishing equipment, supplying machines to commercial printers, packaging converters, and the broader graphic arts industry.
This particular machine was built in 2009 and is offered in used condition from a seller located in Germany. It is equipped with a flat pile feeder featuring MC Control, providing automated sheet feeding and control of the infeed process. The folding unit is designated FW 1 and configured with four combination folding pockets, giving the machine flexibility to handle a range of folding patterns within a single pass.
The infeed width is 52 cm, defining the maximum sheet width the machine can accept. A downstream slitter shaft is fitted, allowing the web or sheet to be slit as part of the inline process before or after folding. A noise damping device is also installed, reducing operational sound levels — a practical consideration in production environments. Sheet delivery is handled by an MBO SA 52 delivery unit, which collects and stacks the finished, folded output.
