KEEP THINGS MOVING WITH THE JUMBO TOP FEEDER
The FEEDMASTER® Jumbo Top Feeder is designed to handle very large sized blank sheets of corrugated material. It receives a stack of material, lifts it up, divides it into measured blocks, inverts each block, and then feeds sheets off the bottom of the block onto the extendo in a continuous shingled stream for delivery into the finishing machine hopper.

• Accepts incoming stack heights up to 72” tall
• Patented floating block pusher cleanly separates blocks from the stack
• Patented block inverter with automatic block squaring
