First of Its Kind: Folder-Gluer Prefeeder Robot Installed
Accurate Box Company invested in the research and development of a prefeeder robot to feed boxes through one of its nine folder-gluers. The robot started as an innovation project by Accurate Box and would be the first of its kind. The robot allows the folder-gluer to run at more consistent speeds, helps reduce the burden of heavy lifting by the team, and frees up feeder operators to work in other areas of the department.

Increase In Green Energy through Expansion of Solar Panels
Accurate Box Company is thrilled to announce an increase in its green energy. The majority of Accurate’s 400,000 sq. ft. roof is now covered in solar panels.
Back in 2019, Accurate Box completed its first phase of a solar panel installation with a 1-megawatt system. After three years, Accurate got the green light from PSE&G to increase its system by almost double, now totaling a 1.9-megawatt system. Accurate Box is proud to say up to 25% of its facility’s electrical usage comes from renewable energy, and it allows Accurate Box to save 20% on electrical costs per year.

Installation of a Third Koenig & Bauer 7-Color Printing Press
Accurate Box Company installed a new Koenig & Bauer 7-color printing press to increase its production and throughput. This adds the most advanced printing technology in the industry to Accurate Box’s 400,000 square foot facility that now houses three Koenig & Bauer presses.
The new press runs an impressive 17,000 sheets an hour which is 13% faster than Accurate Box’s previous new press that was installed in 2018. Matching the capability of the previously installed press, cameras capture images of sheets while printing and automatically adjust the ink flow so all sheets are the same. This is a significant feature that shortens makeready times, minimizes paper waste and guarantees consistent high-quality printing. This addition reinforces Accurate Box’s facility as a model for quality output and productivity and continues its path as a one-of-a-kind state-of-the-art facility.

Entering the World of Digital Printing
Accurate Box Company took a big leap in its printing capabilities by purchasing a new high-speed digital printer. The printer allows Accurate Box to offer more options to its customers when manufacturing boxes.
Manufactured by Digital Printing Inc., the machine can print on uncoated sheets using 4-color process and is capable of printing an area of 44” wide at a speed of 150 feet per minute. Before purchasing the digital printer, Accurate Box had to rely on outside partners to print double-sided boxes. Now, Accurate Box is able to produce double-sided print boxes in-house at lower costs and lower minimums than ever before! The purchase of this machine was essential for Accurate Box’s mission to not rely on any outside partners for any part of its process.
