Langston Type “B” Cutter and Scorer.

The operation of the rotary cutting and scoring machine is comparatively simple, and the cutting wheels and scoring wheels are easily adjusted to any position wanted.

THE LANGSTON CHOPPER

This machine, built by the Samuel M. Langston Co., of Camden, N. J., is a combined slitter, scorer, chopper and rewinder, and is designed to handle single-faced corrugated paper from the roll.

THE LANGSTON CARTON MACHINE

This device produces round, square, or octagon shaped shells from single-faced corrugated paper, such as are used as slip-ons over bottles. Round shells, with the corrugation running lengthwise, are made by feeding into the machine strips of corrugated single-faced paper, which are folded and taped only, being cut to length afterwards. Another style of Langston carton machine is used for the production of square, rectangular or octagon shells, which are folded, taped and cut to length automatically.

THE SLITTER AND RE-WINDING MACHINE

Many of the larger plants devoted to the manufacture of corrugated paper boxes are equipped with a slitter and rewinding machine which is used for transforming the large rolls of corrugated paper into smaller rolls of required sizes. The Langston surface or drum rewinder and slitter is one of the best machines of this class on the market.
