Ulma - 2000 Ulma Atlanta Flow Wrapper

• Wrapping individual food items such as bakery products, confectionery, and fresh produce.
• Packaging non-food items like cosmetics, stationery, and small hardware components.
• Creating hermetically sealed packs for extended shelf life and product protection.
• High-speed primary packaging in automated production lines.

Typical capacity

Typically, flow wrappers of this class can achieve speeds ranging from 50 to 200 packs per minute, depending on product size and film type.

Power supply

Commonly, units of this type operate on a 3-phase industrial power supply, typically 400V, 50Hz.

Film materials

Suitable for a wide range of heat-sealable films, including BOPP, laminates, and some barrier films.

Product dimensions

For this class of equipment, the maximum product dimensions are typically constrained by the jaw width and infeed conveyor design, requiring verification with the seller.

Footprint

A flow wrapper of this nature typically requires a footprint of approximately 3 to 5 metres in length, including infeed and outfeed conveyors.

Control system

Units commonly feature PLC control with a human-machine interface (HMI) for setting parameters and monitoring operation.

• What is a flow wrapper used for?

  A flow wrapper, or horizontal form-fill-seal (HFFS) machine, continuously forms a tube of film around a product, seals it longitudinally, and then seals and cuts the ends to create individual packages.

• What types of products can be packaged with an Ulma Atlanta?

• What maintenance is typically required for a used flow wrapper?

• Can this machine integrate into an existing production line?

• What film types are compatible with this machine?

Form-fill-seal machines hold strong reputations in food packaging for reliability and consistent output. Buyers typically prioritise machines with clear maintenance histories and verified production specifications. Key strengths include versatility across film types and product formats, alongside relatively straightforward operation. When purchasing used units, inspectors should examine seal quality consistency, film tracking accuracy, and the condition of heating elements. Machines from established manufacturers generally command buyer confidence. Downtime for repairs is a common concern, so availability of spare parts and technical support merits careful consideration before acquisition.
