Glue gun type gluing apparatus

摘要

A glue gun type gluing apparatus has glue guns (8a) and (8b) for applying glue to a gluing area in a joint flap (2) of a corrugated board sheet (1) for manufacturing a box, which runs on a box manufacturing line, a sheet end detection sensor (3) for detecting the front and rear ends of the corrugated board sheet (1), an encoder (7) for measuring the travel distance of the corrugated board sheet (1), and a control unit (9) for controlling the operation of the glue guns (8a) and (8b). The control unit (9) learns and stores the position of gluing areas on the basis of the information from the sheet end detection sensor (3) and the encoder (7) while the corrugated board sheet (1) is run at a low speed, and restricts the acquisition of detection signals by the sensor (3) during the time from the passing of the end point of the joint flap (2) to the arrival of the start point of the next joint flap (2).
