The object of the disclosure is a method and an apparatus for forming a package box. In the first phase of the method, a box blank is placed at the start of the box-forming process and is brought to the conveying motion. In the next phase, the markings of the package boxes are formed. In the third phase, the box blank is folded around an inner support and its ends are fastened together into one tubular blank component. In the fourth phase, a base panel is affixed to the box frames. In a fifth phase, the package boxes are transferred for further processing according to the order. The different phases of the method also comprise at least the following actions to be taken on the basis of online data coming from the picking system: In the first phase, a box blank is selected, which forms a box frame for one or more package boxes, the width of which box frame corresponds most suitably to the online data; or a box blank is cut to the correct width according to online data. In the next phase, the necessary fold lines are formed in the box blank on the basis of online data and the necessary markings are made on each box frame to be formed from a box blank. In the third phase, the box blank is cut by means of the cutting device on the basis of online data into box frames of the height of the package boxes to be formed.

Systems for providing efficient manufacturing of sheet or box structures, corrugate sheets, or other products of varying size and structure often with pre-applied print (“pre-print”) are provided herein. The systems include various features and modules that enable automated control of the corrugator, including the knives, slitters, scorers and cut-to-mark detection system(s), are contemplated. Colored markings may be used to indicate an order change section between two order sections of a roll plan for the manufacturing process. The colored markings are detected as the corrugator runs and, once detected, a controller determines a next set of order instructions—e.g., to match the upcoming order. Thus, an order change may occur, thereby enabling automated control of the corrugator based on the new order instructions. Computer readable markings may enable checking of the actual position in the roll plan to an intended position, enabling stopping or changing of the corrugator operation if needed. 1. A system for making corrugated box structures using a corrugator , the system comprising:a corrugated board web comprising at least a first order section and a second order section, wherein the first order section includes at least one standard cut-to-mark marking that is used to signal an initiation of a cut of the corrugated board web to help form at least one first box structure, wherein the second order section includes at least one standard cut-to-mark marking that is used to signal an initiation of a cut of the corrugated board web to help form at least one second box structure, wherein the first order section is different than the second order section, wherein the corrugated board web further comprises an order change section positioned between the first order section and the second order section, wherein the order change section includes at least one colored cut-to-mark marking that is used to signal an initiation of a cut of the corrugated board web, wherein the at ...
