TS37 - Side Seal Horizontal Shrink Wrapper
The TS37 side seal horizontal shrink wrapper is one of the most versatile packaging machines on the market today. Capable of wrapping up to 80 packages per minute, the continuous motion TS37 film folding system eliminates the need for multiple forming heads with its adjustable film former.
Unlike conventional film inverters, the TS37 film path ensures equal transfer of grouped products onto the film without skewing the product configuration. This is ideal for multipacks and irregular shaped products. The machine features an electronically adjustable pouch length, which enables “on-the-fly” bag length changes without changing the flight spacing. All adjustments are made with a user-friendly color touchscreen where product changeovers can be completed quickly and easily – without tools.
The TS37 uses single wound film which is less costly than centerfolded. A unique side sealing mechanism ensures strong attractive trim seals using polyolefin, PVC or polyethylene shrink film. The TS37’s cross-seal system uses a hot knife seal and cut-off, with a precision temperature control that maintains accurate heat settings. An independently driven scrap removal system compacts excess film.
A sliding film rack allows easy roll loading and reduces film changeover time. Located beneath the film forming table, the film rack requires no additional floor space.
Compact in design, the TS37 is easily integrated into any existing production environment.
The TS37’s unique side seal process keeps package graphics distortion-free with neatly formed trim seals created extremely close to the product. The TS37 is perfect for artwork, mailers, compact discs and low-profile stacks of paper products such as napkins and greeting cards. This flexible system is also ideal for tall products such as bottles when utilizing the vertical sealing system, and optional film support former.
