Patrick Szany and Phil Herring are excited to announce Tim Connell has joined with American Corrugated Machine Corporation as their newest team member. Tim brings a wealth of experience with over 25 years in the corrugated industry in sales and equipment, making him significantly a valuable addition to the American Corrugated Machine organization. Tim is recognized for his knowledge in the corrugated industry and workforce development by offering resources to help boxmakers be more efficient, productive, and maximize their profit.
Pat Szany reports that late 2024 and 2025 was a period of global uncertainty, both politically and economically. As the dust begins to settle with the global issues, i.e., conflicts and tariffs, the demand for corrugated packaging remains strong and is growing globally. E-commerce is still largely responsible for this growth while a repatriation of the industrial manufacturing base is expected to boost domestic demand. Analysts predict that corrugated box demand will increase by about 4% over the next decade.
An industry leader since 1985, American Corrugated Machine specializes in new and used equipment, expert ASA appraisals, plant layouts, and startups. At ACM, we understand that market conditions constantly change, as do the opportunities. We can provide up to date information, a large selection of new and used machinery, and professional advice to help handle all of your machinery needs.
ACM Continues to market the Korean SECO Flexo Folder Gluers and Rotary Die Cutters. The machines are running with high productivity. SECO uses name brand components for all electrical and mechanical parts. The customer selects their preferred OEM from a “Machine Check List,” everything from Anilox Rolls to Glue Systems. In 2023, ACM/SECO installed a 93 X 216 3/C Flexo Folder Gluer with Die Cutter. This machine is designed to run triple-wall in addition to standard board thickness. Please contact us for more information on the quality and cost effectiveness of these machines.
ACM had great success in selling the Torosian Tech Post Gluers in 2025. These machines are capable of running Straight Line, Lock Bottom, and Tray Configurations. Machines can be ordered in various conditions from “good running” to “totally rebuilt” with a one-year warranty.
ACM is pleased to represent the RJE Magellan line of Box Makers in 2025. There are two models: the LD (non-tri-wall), and the tri-wall capable HD. These machines are ideal for short run, large boxes. The machine sets up in 2 minutes and can be operated by a single employee. Die cutting and 2-color printings are available features for this machine. The Magellan has filled a niche for companies looking to capitalize on short run, quick turnaround opportunities. Please call us for specifications, video, and a quote.
