The horizontal power unit can be a cylinder, hydraulic cylinder, or linear motor, etc. By adjusting the distance between the two width-limiting plates 2131, the needs of cartons of different widths can be met. The output of the end-limiting switches ensures that the cartons remain stable during transport, avoiding deviation or tilting due to varying widths, thereby improving the overall forming effect and sealing quality of the cartons, and ensuring efficient and precise production.

[0056] Furthermore, the folding plate 223 is provided with a moving unit 225 that moves itself to adjust the distance between itself and the cardboard box. The moving unit 225 can be a cylinder, hydraulic cylinder or linear motor, etc., and is adjusted synchronously with the width limiting plate 2131 to fold the cardboard box.

[0057] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the frame 10 is equipped with a position sensor 103 electrically connected to the glue spraying unit 23. The position sensor 103 can be of various types, such as an infrared sensor or a photoelectric sensor. The infrared sensor is model IR-2025, and the photoelectric sensor is model PS-3000, both capable of accurately detecting the position of the cardboard box and ensuring accurate glue spraying timing. That is, when the cardboard box is transported to the designated position, the position sensor 103 immediately triggers the glue spraying unit 23 to precisely spray glue, followed by folding by the folding plate 223 to ensure the cardboard box is firmly bonded. This completes the overall automated processing of the cardboard box, reducing manual intervention, ensuring consistent cardboard box forming quality, improving production efficiency, reducing costs, and meeting the high-efficiency and precise needs of the modern packaging industry.

[0058] like Figure 1As shown, this embodiment also includes a controller 30.
