PACK EXPO 2000: Side Seal Horizontal Wrapper

The TS37 is a full-featured side seal wrapper capable of speeds up to 80 packages per minute. It is ideally suited for food products, cosmetics, DVDs, paper products and a multiplicity of other products. The unique trim seal unit keeps package graphics distortion free by forming strong, neat seals extremely close to the sides of the product. It is ideal for retail products or other applications where attention to aesthetics is essential.

New enhancements include a user-friendly LCD touchscreen with programmable capabilities and the industry standard Allen Bradley SLC 5/03 PLC. On-the-fly adjustments allow the trim seal unit to be adjusted without shutting down the machine. Other improvements include an optimized pneumatic system to raise machine cycle rates and a more rugged frame to increase stability and durability.

The continuous motion unit is adaptable to a wide variety of packaging needs. It wraps products of infinite length and now features a quick-change height adjustment for products up to 8 in. tall. The unit offers interchangeable horizontal and vertical sealing, along with an adjustable film inverter, which eliminates the need for multiple forming heads or expensive centerfold film.
