Frequently asked questions

Why use a scanning station?

When every order contains different products, measuring and typing sizes by hand is slow and error-prone. The station measures each product and the CNC machine cuts the right box automatically.

Which machines does it work with?

Edda CNC box-on-demand machines such as Neobox and Optibox, using the EDDAWORKS® software.

Who installs the equipment?

Edda and its local distributors install line equipment together with the machines it serves.

Is the equipment matched to Edda machines?

Yes. Working height, width and connection points are designed for the Edda machine or line it connects to.

Where it is used

The Scanning Station measures each product in 3D as it passes on the conveyor and sends the width, height and length directly to the CNC box machine. The box is cut to the exact size with no manual measuring or typing.

Mixed product sizes

When every order contains different products, measuring by hand is slow and error-prone; the station measures each product automatically.

Themis box-on-demand line

The Scanning Station is the first step of the Themis line, followed by the CNC box machine and the Sealmaster.

Furniture parts and long components

Products from 100 × 20 × 300 mm up to 1000 × 250 × 3000 mm are measured on the fly.

How it fits into a packaging line

The station sits on the infeed conveyor before the box machine, at a feeding height of 920 mm, and passes dimensions to Neobox or Optibox through the EDDAWORKS® software.

It measures 1405 × 2525 × 5985 mm (W × H × L), weighs 650 kg and runs on 380 V three-phase or 220 V single-phase power, with a total servo power of 1.1 kW.

Line examples

Edda line equipment is used in complete systems such as the Speedwrap Profiline, Heavy Duty Lines, Spinner 1800 Sofa Line and Spinner 2200 S Pallet. Each line is engineered around the customer’s products, output and layout, and the equipment is built to match.

What to tell us

• Product size range.
• Products per hour.
• Box machine: Neobox or Optibox.
• Space on the infeed side for the station.

Service and support

Line equipment is installed together with the machines it serves, by Edda and its local distributors, with remote support from our engineers in Bursa, Türkiye.

Why the equipment around a machine matters

The output of a packaging line is set by its slowest step, and that step is often not the wrapping machine itself but the handling around it: loading, aligning, transferring, waiting and unloading. Well-chosen line equipment removes these small delays and the manual lifting that comes with them.

• Steadier flow: products arrive at each machine in the right position and at the right time.
• Less manual handling: operators guide and supervise instead of lifting and pushing.
• Fewer stops: short pauses at one station no longer stop the whole line.
• Better packing quality: products enter wrapping and closing machines straight and centred.
