New Developments Elevating Signature Folder Gluers: Automation, Precision & Smarter Production
Signature Folder Gluers highly values our customer needs — more efficiency, less manual labor, and reliable automation that keeps production moving. The latest innovations in the Signature line deliver exactly that. From smarter packing systems to robotic handling and now intelligent glue valve positioning, Signature equipment continues to push forward with solutions that directly impact speed, accuracy, and profitability.
Below is a look at the newest additions supporting modern folder-gluer operations.
Check out our intro video to see these new innovations in action!
Signature Load Turner
Faster, Smoother Front-End Workflow
Turning stacks of blanks before feeding the gluer may be simple, but it’s time-consuming and physically demanding. The Signature Load Turner automates this crucial step, keeping operators safer and production running consistently.
-
Handles stack heights from 10" to 14"
-
Syncs directly with the gluer’s run speed
-
Provides steady, uniform loading into the prefeeder
This upgrade reduces labor strain and front-end bottlenecks, helping jobs start strong and stay strong.
Sig-Pack with Integrated Case Erector
Complete End-of-Line Efficiency
The Sig-Pack now pairs seamlessly with a case erector, creating a unified, continuous system that handles the packing workflow from start to finish.
-
Automatically erects cases sized up to 550 mm × 650 mm
-
Matches Sig-Pack’s operating speed for uninterrupted flow
-
Eliminates manual case handling and staging – keeping operators focused on higher-value tasks
The result? A smoother, cleaner handoff from finished cartons to case packing.
Robotic Slip Sheet Insertion
Consistency You Can Count On
Slip sheet placement has traditionally required manual intervention, but the latest Signature advancement brings robotics into the process.
-
Robotic arm inserts slip sheets accurately between layers
-
Configurable for single or multi-row patterns
-
Integrates with Sig-Pack’s computerized make-ready system
It’s reliable, repeatable, and eliminates one more tedious step in your workflow.
Automatic Glue Valve Placement System
The Automatic Glue Valve Placement System is engineered to reduce make-ready time and improve accuracy on even the most complex carton jobs.
- Multiple independent mechanical arms for precision placement
- Compatible with most glue systems
- Independent make-ready system to save job settings
This means faster changeovers, fewer adjustments during production, and more predictable results.
Automation That Works the Way You Work
Every one of these developments shares a simple purpose: helping converters get more out of every production run. Signature continues to combine durability, versatility, and operator-focused engineering to deliver equipment that grows with your business.
