Integrated Line vs Standalone Folder Gluer
Enter your operating numbers. We project the 5-year operating cost for a standalone setup (separate die-cutter + folder gluer + packer) versus a Cenwan integrated line. Calculations run client-side; nothing is sent anywhere.

5-Year Operating Cost Projection
Standalone Setup (4 operators)
4 operators per shift across separate die-cutter, folder gluer, packer plus reconciliation overhead
Cenwan Integrated Line (2 operators)
2 operators per shift covering one continuous-flow line
5-year labor savings: . Note that throughput recovery on integrated lines (avoiding the 30-40% loss from manual transfers and jams) is a separate gain on top of this labor delta.

Estimator uses 4 vs 2 operator headcount baseline (industry-typical for stand-alone vs integrated configurations) and an additional 15% reconciliation/jam-mitigation labor overhead applied to the standalone side. Equipment CAPEX, energy, consumables, and tariffs are excluded; this is a labor-only comparison. Final numbers vary with shift pattern, peak-season multipliers, and local wage levels.
