KY-1200A Automatic V-Grooving Machine
Precision CNC Slotting Solution for High-End Rigid Boxes & Luxury Packaging
The Challenge
Manual scoring or semi-automatic grooving is slow, inconsistent, and produces high waste. Single-blade machines require multiple passes, bottlenecking your rigid box production line.
The KY-1200A Advantage
Our fully automatic CNC V-groover cuts up to 8 slots in a single pass at 85 pcs/min. Achieve industrial-scale throughput with ±0.1mm accuracy and minimal labor costs.
Advanced Technology Features
CNC Precision Control
Advanced CNC system ensures consistent ±0.1mm groove accuracy across every sheet, eliminating errors in box folding.
85 pcs/min High Speed
Optimized mechanical design allows for rapid-fire slotting, delivering industry-leading throughput for mass production orders.
Max 8 Simultaneous Slots
Cut all required V-grooves for a complex box layout in a single pass. Drastically reduces cycle time per piece.
Adjustable V-Angle
Flexibility to adjust cutting angles from 80° to 140°, supporting everything from standard gift boxes to specialized display designs.
Wide Material Range
Handles greyboard from 0.8mm to 5.0mm thick and widths up to 1000mm. One machine for all your rigid packaging needs.
Auto Feeding System
Non-stop top-feeding friction system ensures smooth material flow without marking the surface of delicate cardboards.

The Importance of Precision V-Grooving in Modern Rigid Box Manufacturing
In the competitive world of luxury packaging, the difference between a premium product and a mediocre one often lies in the details. One of the most critical details is the “sharpness” of the box corners. Traditional die-cutting and scoring methods often leave rounded edges or frayed fibers, which detract from the high-end feel of jewelry, perfume, or electronics packaging. This is where the KY-1200A Automatic V-Grooving Machine becomes an essential asset for your factory.
V-grooving technology involves cutting a precise triangular channel into greyboard or MDF without penetrating the final layer of paper or the board itself. This allows the board to fold with zero radius, resulting in perfectly sharp 90-degree corners. The KY-1200A takes this technology to the next level by integrating CNC (Computer Numerical Control). Unlike older mechanical models that require tedious manual adjustments for every new box size, the KY-1200A allows operators to input dimensions digitally, ensuring the first piece is just as accurate as the ten-thousandth.
Furthermore, the efficiency of the KY-1200A is unmatched. With a working speed of 85 pieces per minute and the ability to cut up to 8 slots simultaneously, it eliminates the common bottleneck found in many packaging facilities. Whether you are processing thin 0.8mm board for small gift items or heavy 5.0mm MDF for industrial-strength displays, the machine’s 1.5KW motor provides consistent power while remaining energy-efficient. The adjustable V-angle (80° to 140°) also means you aren’t limited to simple squares; you can create complex, multi-angled packaging designs that stand out on the shelf.
At Kylin Machines, we understand that reliability is just as important as speed. That’s why the KY-1200A is built with a reinforced frame weighing 1,400kg, minimizing vibration during high-speed operation. Our 36-month warranty is a testament to our confidence in the machine’s longevity. By investing in the KY-1200A, you aren’t just buying a machine; you are upgrading your factory’s capability to deliver world-class packaging solutions to the most demanding brands globally.
