Flow wrapper for preformed pieces

Optimize your high-speed packaging line with a reliable flow wrapper that seamlessly wraps up to 2,000 pieces per minute, ensuring precise and efficient wrapping of sweets and soft candies without the mess of grease contamination.

Cuts, Wraps, and Labels Confectionery Products

The CWFB Flow Wrapper from Carugil is a continuous-motion horizontal form, fill, and seal machine designed for the efficient packaging of preformed confectionery pieces. This system stands out with its ability to handle up to 2,000 pieces per minute, making it ideal for high-speed operations in the candy and snack manufacturing industries. With brushless servomotors driving all movements and advanced electronic controls ensuring precise synchronization, the CWFB guarantees smooth operation and optimal wrapping quality.

Primarily serving confectionery manufacturers and food packaging companies, this equipment is adept at processing a range of products including lollipops, chewy caramels, and fruit gummies. Integration into existing production lines is streamlined through its automated longitudinal correction and tension control systems, which ensure perfect film alignment and prevent operational downtime. Additionally, the CWFB is equipped with an automatic splicing feature to change wrapping material rolls without halting production.

Operator convenience and product integrity are enhanced with optional modules such as an inkjet printer for date coding and a label applicator for adding stickers or tattoos directly onto the wrapping film. The absence of traditional chain feeding systems minimizes maintenance needs and reduces the risk of product contamination, while the robust design supports continuous, uninterrupted production, making it a reliable partner in the packaging department.
