What is a Gift Box Machine?
A gift box machine refers to automated equipment used in the production of rigid boxes, collapsible boxes with side wings, and double-sided wraparound cases. These machines handle multiple processes such as slotting, gluing, positioning, edge folding, and case forming. Widely used in luxury packaging for cosmetics, electronics, jewelry, and crafts, gift box machines offer speed, consistency, and automation compared to traditional manual production.
What Kind of Boxes Can You Produce?
Different box styles require different machine configurations. Common applications include:
– Rigid boxes (lid & base)
– Book-style collapsible boxes with side wings
– Double-sided wraparound cases (irregular shapes)
– High-end boxes with visual positioning
These are popular in the fields of high-end cosmetics, wine packaging, gift presentation, electronics, and publishing.
