need

The line has been developed to meet the request to automatically insert a napkin folded in 2 or 3 parts, inside an cutlery envelope.

The products are generally carried out in a production cycle that involves the construction of the envelope with paper converting equipment (fold & gluing machines) and a manual cycle that involves folding and inserting the napkin inside the envelope.
