Abstract: An apparatus for folding box blanks into completed boxes includes a feeding station having a swing guide assembly designed to provide an abutting surface which makes contact with flaps/panels of the box blank as the box blank is feed from the feeding station into a folding station. The swing guide assembly can be synchronized with a feed assembly which moves box blanks from a hopper assembly to a first feed position. Actuating drives operating at different speeds can be used to move the box blanks from the feeding station to a first and second folding station. Critical actuating motions used in the process of folding and advancing the box blanks can be performed at a different speed than other non-critical actuating motions.
