Quik-Former™

Quik-Former™ semi-automatic loadformer

Fast operation, heavy-duty construction, versatile and safe — all in an economical package

The Quik-Former™ semi-automatic loadformer completes the Geo. M. Martin Company’s nicked bundle separator system, and with its high speed cycle rates, will keep pace with any Die-cutter or Flexo Folder-Gluer line. The advantages of Martin’s Quik-Former go beyond the increased productivity, and include reduced operator fatigue and the resulting risk of job related injury. With all work being presented at the operator’s level, Quik-Former allows for quick, safe, and easy building of solid, well formed stacks without the need for repetitive bending or lifting of heavy bundles.

The Quik-Former design provides a versatile and economic solution for today’s loadforming needs. The standard features provide the versatility and smooth operation necessary to form neat square loads and maintain maximum productivity.
