Fiber thermoforming system for sustainable packaging
In the pursuit of creating sustainable packaging, high precision and efficiency are crucial. Traditional methods often result in inconsistent quality and higher waste, posing significant challenges in the manufacturing process.
Thermoform fiber materials efficiently into packaging
The NATUREFORMER KFT90 by KIEFEL GmbH is a fiber thermoforming system designed for producing various packaging solutions from natural fibers. It features Kiefel Steam Flow Technology that reduces cycle time by 30%, enhancing productivity. An advanced temperature controller ensures reliable processing. Additionally, the optimized HMI interface simplifies operation, allowing users to start production swiftly. The water extraction and cold pre-pressing process reduces moisture up to 60%, with the final press further reducing residual moisture to approximately 7%. The system supports up to 160 mm product height, making it adaptable for different packaging types, including lids, coffee capsules, and bowls. With a pressing force of 450 kN and a forming area of 900 x 600 mm, this system is equipped for high-capacity production.
