Box forming

Hi everyone. This is a bit of a long-shot but I was hoping someone might know the name of a company that manufactures box forming machinery such as this one on Crane’s YouTube channel.

I currently make wedding albums and boxes and using bookbinding techniques but would like to add rigid cardboard boxes to my line up.

The only companies I’ve been able to find so far are Chinese ones. They all seem to have the same photos which makes me wonder if the images are stolen.

Thank you in advance for any help,
Gemima

That is not a single machine, that is a box forming assembly line. On Bidspotter you can find auctions of companies who had such and now they are sold, in china you can find compact machinery for the same purpose, you can address the chinese consulate for help, they can connect you with the right company. I was over there recently and went to Trade show and they have interesting stuff.

Thanks typenut! I hadn’t thought about contacting the Chinese consulate. That’s a great idea. Can I ask which trade show you went to?
