Cartoning Machine Jamming? 5 Quick Operator Checks

Cartoning Machine jamming is one of the costliest production delays—every minute of downtime eats into output and profit. The good news? 90% of jams can be resolved by your operator in minutes, no support call needed.

5 Quick Fixes for Cartoning Machine Jams

Skip the wait—have your operator run these checks first:

• Carton dimensions: Confirm cartons match the machine’s spec. Misaligned sizes force jams; adjust to the manual’s recommended length/width.
• Infeed conveyor: Clear debris (stray cardboard, tape bits) blocking the belt—wipe the surface to restore smooth flow.
• Hot melt nozzle: Unclog hardened glue with the machine’s included cleaning pin; clogs disrupt application and jam cartons.
• Safety door sensor: Reset the sensor by closing the door firmly—even a slightly ajar door triggers shutdowns.
• PLC error code: Note the code on the display (it pinpoints issues like “sensor misalignment”) and use the manual to fix it fast.
