Flow Wrapping

Flow Wrapping
Our flow wrapping solutions have proven to be the best solution for demanding packaging needs. We continuously develop and innovate our designs to ensure unrivalled reliability in operation, as well as, high production rates. We offer several flow wrapper models that range in suitability for mid to very high-speed wrapping requirements, as well as, edge flow wrapping solutions.
We supply ‘stand-alone’ machines for a low speed hand fed application up to a fully automatic system to meet the demands of the most sophisticated processing and packaging lines. Systems commonly include automatic feeding, product storage, multiple primary flow wrappers and secondary multipack flow wrappers. The HIWRAP Flow Wrapping machines operate at the highest levels of efficiency even in the most demanding of environments.

HIWRAP199 FLOW WRAPPER (HW199)
The HW199 flow wrapper is a fully servo, cantilevered construction, 24/7 machine suitable for low mid speed requirements with a film unwinding capability of up to 40 m/min or up to 400 ppm @ 100mm package cut off length. The HW199 is available in two web width configurations, 400mm or 600mm (wide body). It can be supplied as a ‘stand alone’ machine for low speed, hand fed applications up to a fully automatic system to meet the demands of the most sophisticated hi-tech processing and packaging lines. Systems can include automatic feeding, product storage and multiple flow wrapping for primary wrapping and multi-packing.
The HW199 operates at the highest level of efficiency incorporating a Sercos III based motion control processor with three axis servo drive and motor package. The machine design allows comfortable room for any add-ons like overhead chains, coding device fitting, etc. User friendly intuitive menus MMI as well as reduced change over time, easy to perform interface tasks with any equipment upstream, high degree of sanitation accessibility and uncompromising quality of the components and craftsmanship are just few of the additional features of this dependable flow wrapper.

HIWRAP299 Flow Wrapper (HW299)
The HW299 flow wrapper is a fully servo, cantilevered construction. 24/7 machine suitable for mid speed requirements with a film unwinding capability of up to 60 m/min or up to 600 ppm @ 100mm package cut off length. It has been designed for full integration with fully automatic systems to meet the demands of the most sophisticated hi-tech processing and packaging lines. Systems can include automatic feeding, product storage, and multiple flow wrapping for primary wrapping and multi-packing.

Flow Wrapping Add-Ons

Gravity Feeders (HGF Series)
The HGF series gravity feeders are connected directly to the lug’s chain of the flow wrapper when stack of products configuration is required on relatively simple applications. It consists of a set of multiple chutes delivering the products directly between the chain lugs.
The chutes set is fitted on back linear motion bearing rails to adjust the correct elevation of the set. The elevation is manually adjustable by wheel.
Side positioning fine regulation of the chute’s set, to secure the perfect pacing with the wrapper lug’s chain.
The HGF is fed with products on edge position from upstream conveyors, generally equipped with HVF series vibrating feeders or by simple tabletop conveyors.
The chutes guides are widely adjustable to suit the different product’s shapes with an array of micro regulations features to accommodate the products sizing.
Heavy duty 24/7 construction with parts in contact with the products executed in AISI 304 stainless steel.

CM Cross Tear Tape Applicator (TTA Series)
The purpose of this device is to provide an easy opening, non-re-closable, feature to regular shaped flow wrapped products.
This is based on the continuous motion concept that delivers this add on tape across without having to stop the main wrapping materials, avoiding therefore any stress on the side notches and the subsequent risk of tearing of the wrapping film. On certain applications, the TTA can apply up to 600 tear tapes per minute.
The main operational advantage is the consistent achievement of the maximum available wrapping speed throughput as there is no need to slow down the wrapping machine to prevent the tearing caused by the intermittency of standard similar application devices. The TTA is available as a “stand alone” add-on or integrated and controlled by the MMI of any HW series flow wrappers.

Ends Seal Foldover Machine (EFO)
The EFO is a heat-operating machine suitable to fold over flow wrapped packages end fins bonding them to the end sides of the package.
This system is recommended for regular shaped packages and it is particularly suitable to obtain a traditional ends fold style package look alike whistle benefiting of the hermetic features typical of a flow wrapping sealing.
The best appearance is obtained with carton boxed products or naked wrapped square and rectangular products on edge.
The device includes an interface-feeding conveyor to the flow wrapper exit belt, two heated vertical belts and it is controlled by the MMI panel of any our flow wrapper.

Multi-pack Side Labelling (MSL)
The MSL is an automatic multipack system for flow wrapped regular shaped products by means of an automatic collation and the application of bottom and top side adhesive labels.
Particularly suitable to handle delicate products in budget multipack configuration offers a wide flexibility in terms of collation of singles, labels dimensions and performance.
