16.2 Fixed forming box
This type of forming box so called fixed former (Fig. 16.1.1) is suitable only for one product

same machine will require an additional fixed forming box. Products with the same width
and height but different length can be tolerated by the same fixed forming box.
The fixed forming plates which comes in two pieces are fixed to the machine body by four
knobs (Fig. 16.1.1 pos. 1). To change the fixed forming remove these four knobs and
substitute with another size fixed forming box.
