The
Universal semi
automatic
overwrapping machine
is ideally suited to
environments that
require frequent
product size changes
or in applications
where batch sizes
and volumes are
small such as
DVD CD Blu-ray,
Video games, Cosmetics, Media,
Confectionary, Soap,
Tissue and Paper
contract packaging.
The system can be
adjusted within
minutes to overwrap
a variety of product
geometries and
sizes. Products are
neatly heat seal
overwrapped using
standard
overwrapping OPP or
BOPP films.
Economical
non-coated
or premium quality
coated films ranging
in thickness from 80
gauge (20 micron) to
320 gauge (80
micron) are well
suited for the
Universal
overwrapping
machine. Products
wrapped using the
system exhibit a
premium quality
overwrapped appearance
at minimal capital
expense. Preprinted
film can be used to
orient artwork or
printed text towards
a specific surface
of each product.
Operating Procedure
The
Universal Semi
Automatic
Overwrapping machine
uses precut sheets
of overwrapping
film.
-
Sheets are placed on
the staging surface
(white) aligned with
the centerline of
the tuck-and-fold
stage.
-
The product to be
wrapped is placed on
the aforementioned
sheet of film's
center line.
-
The edge of the
sheet of film is
folded over the top
of the product and
down the far side of
the product while at
the same time
pulling the product
closer to the
operator.
-
Once the product has
transitioned over
the heat-sealer, the
sealer will extend
sealing the film
against the product
for 500
milliseconds.
-
The product is then
inserted into the
tuck-and-fold stage.
As new
products are inserted
into the tuck-and-fold
stage previously
inserted products are
thereby pushed through
the tuck-and-fold stage
towards the side
sealers. During the long
(initial) seal the side
sealers are also
activated to form the
side seals.
