Film shrink wrapper with in-line infeed

Streamline your packaging line with advanced shrink wrapping technology designed to efficiently handle diverse container types, optimizing product protection and presentation while seamlessly integrating into existing production workflows.

Packs and Wraps Containers Efficiently

The LSK ERGON Series from SMI Group features automatic shrink wrapping machines purpose-built for high-speed packing and film wrapping of plastic, metal, cardboard, and glass containers. This series excels in addressing the diverse needs of the food and beverage, packaging, and consumer goods industries. Each model, such as the LSK 30 and LSK 40, integrates seamlessly into production lines, utilizing a mechanical product grouping system with both in-line and 90° infeed conveyors for flexible operations.

Capable of achieving outputs up to 40 packs per minute, the LSK ERGON machines cater to a variety of pack configurations, making them ideal for producers dealing with plastic bottles, metal cans, cardboard boxes, and glass jars. The incorporation of ICOS brushless motors with digital servo-drivers reduces energy consumption while ensuring precise film wrapping with a constant tensioning system and efficient heat-shrinking tunnel.

Constructed with a powder-painted steel frame and featuring for-life lubricated bearings, these machines offer durability and minimal maintenance downtime. The user-friendly POSYC® control panel provides intuitive operation, while modular mechanical and electronic components enhance operational flexibility and maintenance efficiency. Optional devices and configurations allow for tailored solutions, meeting the current and future packaging needs of your production environment.
