- Typical throughput
- For this class of equipment, units commonly achieve speeds of 50-150 packs per minute, depending on product size and film type.
- Film compatibility
- Units of this type typically handle heat-sealable films such as OPP, laminated films, and some barrier films.
- Power supply
- Commonly, these machines require a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, with varying power consumption based on heaters and motors.
- Product dimensions
- Suitable for products with typical dimensions up to 300mm in length, 150mm in width, and 80mm in height, though exact ranges vary by model.
- Footprint
- A flow wrapper with an infeed system typically requires a floor space of approximately 3-5 metres in length and 1.5-2 metres in width.
- Sealing type
- Most flow wrappers produce a fin seal on the bottom and end seals at both ends of the package.
