Systematic arrangement of machines for Staying and Wrapping
Extension Bottom Boxes and Lids; Affixing Two Laces to Box, and Closing.

From the wrapping machine the lids are discharged to a receiving table ready for closing. The boxes are discharged to a hopper conveniently located near the lacing machine operator, who applies the two laces to each box and then passes it on to the receiving table. The boxes are then conveyed to the table on which the lids have been discharged, where the boxes and lids are closed ready for packing.

This is one of the efficiency plans which is being used in many large box factories with successful results.

PLAIN CANDY BOXES

Plain Telescope Candy Box.

Plain candy boxes are made of chip-board, news-board, or straw-board, the board lined on the inner side with white news or book paper before being cut up into blanks of various sizes. The board is cut and scored to the required sizes on a cutting and scoring machine. The corners are then cut out of the blanks on either a single or double cornering machine. The top of the lid is covered on a topping machine. The corners of the box and lid are stayed on a staying machine. The sides of the box and lid are covered with white or colored glazed paper on a covering machine.
