Design and Simulation of Automatic Cartoning Machine

Abstract

In this paper, the various mechanisms of the automatic cartoning machine are designed, including the box taking mechanism, the silo, the pushing mechanism, the raw material conveying device, the carton conveying device and the sealing mechanism. After comparing a variety of pushing methods, this paper adopts the slide rail as the design scheme of the pushing mechanism, and calculates the pushing stroke of the pushing mechanism. The crank slider mechanism was used for the sealing mechanism, and the parameters were calculated. And designed with adjustable size silo, which can be adapted to the cartoning requirements of different sizes of cartons. Subsequently, based on the finite element analysis software, the finite element static analysis was carried out on the frame of the automatic cartoning machine, the maximum stress of the frame was 36.929MPa, and the maximum deformation of the frame was 0.027mm, and the strength of the frame was checked, which proved that the designed frame met the design requirements.
