What causes more production losses than most people realize?

Not machine speed.
Not folding quality
Feeding inconsistencies.
A folder gluer can only perform as well as the blanks entering the machine. Misfeeds, interruptions, and unstable feeding don’t just reduce output, they create unnecessary downtime and put pressure on the entire production process.

That’s where the JD Engineers Down Force Feedgates make the difference.
The servo-driven system is designed to maintain smooth and controlled blank feeding, ensuring a consistent production flow even at higher machine speeds.

By applying controlled pressure and maintaining superior grip on the blanks, the Down Force Feedgates improve feeding accuracy and reduce the risk of misfeeds before they can impact production.
The result:
✔ Smooth and continuous production flow
✔ Reduced misfeeds and downtime
✔ Reliable blank handling at high speeds
✔ Improved process stability and product quality
✔ Perfect integration with robot feeding systems

As more packaging plants move toward automation, feeding reliability becomes increasingly important.

The JD Down Force Feedgates are designed with exactly that future in mind.
Available for most folder gluer brands.

Because efficient production doesn’t start in the folding section.
It starts with feeding every blank correctly.
