SHRINK-WRAPPERS. The new, simpler, smaller
and cheaper CLEAR_PRINT 24-32 shrink-wrapper series no longer cuts the
film in advance. The CLEAR-PRINT perforates (patent-pending) the film
precisely on the print registration mark, or to the needed length on
random-print and clear-film. The web is continuous throughout and is
being perforated in the immediate vicinity of the conveyor and on the
product. As a consequence, lock of rigidity (with film under 2 mil.) and
static electricity are no longer a concern, the co. says. The new system
eliminates the need for a knife to cut the film and a vacuum belt to
pull forward the individual pieces of film. Available indeed modules
include flood feed for round products, a divider for square products.
Single-lane machines can perform up to 60 wraps/min. while dual lane
machines can operate at double that speed. Polypack, Inc. 727-578-5000 • Www.polypack.com |
