Abstract

A box making machine comprises a feed station, a positioning station, a printing station including four printing units, a cutting station with a creasing unit, a slotting unit and a cutting unit, a folding-gluing station and a stacking and delivery station, all driven by D.C. motors. The D.C. motors control is achieved by the electrical shaft coupling driven by a driving device which comprises a command control unit having a code generator, a synchronization circuit for each motor and a curved generator for one of the motors, a calculating unit including a microprocessor, input/output circuits and an input circuit with switches, a signal conditioning unit with an element for sense discrimination and multiplication, and a signal conditioner, and a command logic unit including a logic drive selection circuit, a logic starting circuit and a logic manual command circuit.
