A sequentially operated vertical packaging machine equipped with an electronic management system. This machine is ideal for shaping, filling products such as ice cream, liquid or powdered milk, and sealing flow-pack bags from a single wrapping coil.
Main features of the machine:
Possible bag sizes:
- Width: from 60 mm to 360 mm
- Length: from 60 mm to 500 mm
Coil dimensions:
- Width: from 140 mm to 750 mm
- Outer diameter: 400 mm
- Inner diameter: 50 mm
- Maximum theoretical speed: 40 CPM (Cycles per Minute)
The base machine is equipped with a wide range of high-precision features and controls, optimized to ensure maximum efficiency in product packaging.
The basic machine is equipped with:
- Heat-sealed jaws for cellophane, laminates, and other materials, ensuring precise and sturdy sealing.
- Separate drive for film traction belts and alternating motion sealing jaws, allowing precise and optimized control of machine functions based on the product and wrapping material, reducing waste.
- Alternating motion jaws, operated by a pneumatic piston.
- Pneumatically operated longitudinal sealing pad.
- Pneumatically operated cutting blades for a clean and precise cut of the wrapping material.
- System of rotating brushes for cleaning the film traction belts with a quick-release device, to maintain the machine in optimal operating conditions.
- Electronic device for control and adjustment of the package length to adapt to different product sizes.
- Independent control of each sealing bar through 3 high-precision temperature controllers, ensuring reliable sealing.
- A series of sealing jaws suitable for a variety of materials, including polypropylene films, polyester-based laminates, polyamide, paper, and foil, with a digital control system for maximum flexibility.
- Capacity to store up to 35 different programs for quick package setup.
- Machine diagnostic system to facilitate maintenance and issue resolution.
- Use of a Siemens PLC and a touchscreen for intuitive and reliable control.
- Synchronization with a printer, labeler, weigher, and other units, all controlled by the same machine PLC for increased efficiency.
- Safety protections ensured by Interlock safety switches for maximum operator safety.
- AISI 316 stainless steel pneumatic dosing system for optimal durability and hygiene.
- Brushless film traction system for silent and efficient operation.
- Long 450/500 mm sealing bar for packaging products of various sizes.
- Photocell for print centering to ensure accurate packaging.
- Film coil with automatic centering system to reduce material waste.
- Product format with AISI 304 stainless steel forming tube.
- AISI 304 stainless steel discharge belt for the finished product, with a horizontal section for extracting large-sized products and an inclined section with adjustable slope.
- Washable and hygienic belt with a modular polypropylene chain for maximum cleanliness.
- Motorized unwinding unit for constant film advancement.
- Pneumatically operated dosing nozzle for ice cream/liquids in AISI 316 stainless steel.
- Semi-automatic system for changing the wrapping coil to reduce downtime.
- "New design" cutting blades to reduce the risk of dirt accumulation.
