Corrugated cardboard is a stiff, strong, and light-weight material made up of three layers of brown kraft paper[paper?:paper sample maker cutting machine]. In 1884, Swedish chemist, Carl F. Dahl, developed a process for pulping wood chips into a strong paper that resists tearing, splitting, and bursting. He named it the kraft process because it produces a strong paper that resists tearing, splitting, and bursting.
From the paper mill, rolls of kraft paper[kraft paper?:kraft paper cutting machine] are transported to a corrugating, or converting, plant. At the plant, layers of kraft paper are crimped and glued to form corrugated cardboard,and then using CUTCNC cutting machine to cut, printed, folded, and glued to make boxes.Some rolls of kraft paper are used as the corrugating medium, and others are used as liners, the layers of kraft paper glued on each side of the medium. After the corrugator has heated, glued, and pressed the kraft paper to form corrugated cardboard, the continuous sheet of cardboard is cut into wide box blanks that then go to other machines for printing[printing?:printing cutting finishing solution], cutting, and gluing. Finally,batches of finished boxes are banded together for shipping to the food processor, toy maker, automobile parts distributor, or any of the thousands of businesses that depend on corrugated cardboard packaging[packaging?:DCP-H series packaging sample cutter plotter].
