Film shrink wrapper with in-line infeed
In packaging facilities handling various types of containers, effective secondary packaging solutions are necessary to bundle and protect products efficiently. Shrink wrapping offers advantages such as reduced material usage and lower storage space requirements, but it also demands precision to ensure consistent quality and minimize downtime.
Handles up to 40 packs per minute
The LSK ERGON Series from SMI Group offers automated film shrink wrapping for plastic, metal, cardboard, or glass containers. Depending on the model, the system can package products in film only, cardboard pad + film, cardboard tray, or cardboard tray + film. Capable of producing up to 40 packs per minute in a single lane, these wrappers incorporate a mechanical product grouping system and in-line or 90° infeed conveyors. This flexibility ensures efficient handling of various container shapes, capacities, and sizes. The system utilizes a pneumatic device for precise product grouping and a progressive brake mechanism for constant film tension. Additional features include low-friction conveyors, oscillating unscramblers, and vacuum-based cardboard pickers to enhance reliability and reduce maintenance.
