KEY FEATURES
EXTERNAL BLANK MAGAZINE:
Designed and built to easy operation, the operator can load the blanks quickly and easily. Depending on production speed, you can choose among different capacity configurations (single and double versions).
BLANKS PICK-UP
Blank extraction is carried out through a pick-up arm guided by a mechanical cam for precise placement. The cam establishes the required rotation for the pick-up arm for better blank extraction. Unit movement is controlled by a brushless motor, the blanks are positioned on the upstroke unit in line with the machine.
CONTINUOUS PRODUCT SEPARATION
Continuous separation system features electronic controls for medium and high speed. Product separation is carried out through a dual set of teeth, with infeed between the products from the bottom. It is very easy to make change over between product size and packaging formats.
PRODUCT WRAPPING UNIT
Particularly suitable for high speeds or for products with an irregular shape with low stability, this device is controlled with a brushless motor and a linear guide with the function of guaranteeing correct and precise coupling of the product with the blank.
AUTOMATIC SIZE CHANGEOVER
Switching to the new packaging format or product size is simplified through brushless motors, in most cases there is no need for tools or for the machine to be manned by the operator. Format change operations are carried out simply from the operator panel.
RETRACTABLE COLLATING PLATE
This feature offers an excellent flexibility when switching from packaging with wrapped trays to shrink wrapped bundles without trays or pads, and vice versa. The pneumatically-actuated surface easily accommodates trays with high walls and is ideal when forming full height trays.
PRODUCT WRAPPING UNIT
The design of the shrink film wrapping unit is flexible to accommodate many wrapping configurations, packaging types, and product sizes.
EASY FILM RELOAD
The external film module provides easy access, better ergonomics, and faster replacement. The Automatic Reel Change is an optional system which allows they system to automatically reload film without any interruption to production or operator intervention.
REMOVABLE FILM CUTTING UNIT
This unique design provide easy access to the film unit, for quick and efficient maintenance. This application is particularly well suited for dairy, beverage, or any other liquid product, where the primary packaging may break, possibly soiling the film
MACHINE FRAME
Designed to offer multiple modular solutions based on machine configuration. The new frame offers better access to all of the units to operate the machine, change formats and perform maintenance.
