VR SOP Training for Folding Carton Manufacturing

Cleaner set-ups, sharper cuts, stronger boxes

Carton plants coordinate board, inks and die-cut/glue. Spark designs bespoke VR training that mirrors your sheeters, litho/UV presses, coaters, die-cutters/blankers, gluers, QC and palletising—so operators learn the correct order first.

Typical challenges

• Print set-up: registration, colour, viscosity and coating weights.
• Die-cut/blank: make-ready, nicking, pressure and waste control.
• Gluing: pattern, compression time and tear/bond strength.
• QA & docs: carton dimensions, ECT/BCT, barcodes and traceability.

Our bespoke build pathway

1. Capture SOPs & limits: press settings, die specs and QA gates.
2. Create scenarios: grade change, print defects, die change and glue jams.
3. Coach in VR: prompts aligned to your work instructions and HMIs.
4. Assess: waste %, downtime drivers and rework causes.

Benefits

• Less waste and faster make-readies.
• Consistent fold/glue strength and presentation.
• Traceable training for brand owners and audits.

Why Spark

We build to your presses, dies and QA—no generic modules.
