Typical Specifications

Typical throughput

For an entry-level flow wrapper of this type, speeds can typically range from 30 to 80 packs per minute, depending on product size and film material.

Power supply

Units like the PFM Swift are commonly found with single-phase electrical connections, suitable for many smaller production environments.

Product dimensions

This class of machine is generally suited for wrapping small to medium-sized products with consistent dimensions, often up to 200-300mm in length.

Film materials

Typically compatible with various heat-sealable films, including polypropylene (BOPP) and laminates, commonly used for flow wrapping.

Infeed system

A flighted infeed with guide rails is standard for this type of equipment, ensuring consistent product spacing and presentation to the sealing jaws.

Maintenance requirements

Mechanical chain-driven models are generally robust; regular lubrication and inspection of wear parts are typically required to maintain optimal performance.
