Hinge Lid Packing Machine

HLP Machine is a specialized industrial machine primarily used in the tobacco industry to automate the high-speed packaging of cigarettes into "hard" flip-top boxes. +1 While some generic "hard packing" machines (like the HLP-250) are used for snacks or biscuits, the term "HLP" is most iconic for the production lines that create the standard 20-cigarette pack you see in retail.
