Record - Record Panda E Flow Wrapper

Applications & Use Cases

• Wrapping individual food items such as confectionery, baked goods, and snack bars.
• Packaging non-food items like small components, medical devices, and consumer goods.
• Creating hermetically sealed packages for extended product shelf life.
• High-speed primary packaging in automated production lines.

Typical Specifications

Typical throughput

Flow wrappers in this class commonly achieve speeds of up to 150 units per minute, depending on product size and film type.

Maximum film width

Units of this type typically accommodate film widths up to 720mm.

Product dimensions (L x W x H)

For this class of equipment, typical product parameters are 100-300mm long, 20-300mm wide, and 10-120mm high.

Machine orientation

Many flow wrappers are configured for left-to-right product flow, which is a common setup in production lines.

Power supply

Typically requires a 3-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with appropriate amperage for motor and heating elements.

Footprint

A compact to medium footprint for a high-speed packaging machine, often requiring several metres in length for the main unit and infeed/outfeed conveyors.

Film material compatibility

Units are typically compatible with various heat-sealable films, including OPP, BOPP, and laminated films.
