Pasaban Upgrades One of OKAB Group’s Cardboard Sheeters

Press release from the issuing company

Pasaban upgrades the electrical cabinets of a cardboard sheeter for Okab in order to improve the machine’s performance.

The Okab Group has been providing cardboard and paper converting services to European market since 1969. It originally started converting envelopes, cutting paper sheets and currently provides tailormade converting services such as, sheeting, rewinding and ream wrapping across the entire continent from its plants in France, Germany and Sweden.

Pasaban has been working with the Okab group designing and manufacturing their paper and cardboard sheeting machines for more than two decades. During this time, we have manufactured more than 10 machines, just two of which are now more than 15 years old. That is the case of the KDD 1700, designed to work with high quality coated cardboard.

After analysing the possibilities for upgrading the sheeter, it was decided to update the electronic components. The PLCs, the hardware of the machine’s computer, and the electrical cabinets were replaced.

With this update, all the Okab’s sheeters now use the same technology.
