On the eve of China’s National Day, Fengchi’s sales manager and after-sales engineer traveled to Australia to help a customer install the GW-1700BP high-speed flute laminator for color box production. That visit highlights the machine’s real-world strengths: fast, stable output and reliable, repeatable quality — exactly what packaging manufacturers need.

Why Australian customer choose the GW-1700BP
Stable high-speed operation
The GW-1700BP is a belt-driven flute laminator engineered for continuous high throughput: typical operation at 16,000 sheets/hour (165 m/min) with a maximum capability of 22,000 sheets/hour (175 m/min). Those rates let corrugated box manufacturers meet tight deadlines while keeping downstream finishing lines full.
Fast job changeover for better uptime
Switch jobs in roughly 3 minutes, minimizing downtime and making short-run production far more economical. Faster changeovers translate directly into higher overall equipment effectiveness (OEE).
Consistent, repeatable quality
Precision registration and a full servo-controlled bus system achieve stable lamination with ±1.0 mm accuracy. That level of control reduces waste, rejects, and manual touchups — crucial for high-quality color boxes where graphics and die-cut alignment matter.
Robust build for long service life
Heavy-duty frames and premium components mean less maintenance and fewer unplanned stoppages. For printing and packaging shops, that durability lowers total cost of ownership and keeps production predictable.
The Fengchi team’s professionalism and service have earned high recognition and appreciation from Australian clients.
