The Cermex VersaBloc is a packaging system designed to assist the dry part of a packaging line to react quickly to changes in packing rhythms, formats and patterns, with multiple changeovers each day.
The system combines the machine technology of the EvoFlex infeed palletiser and the VersaFilm multichannel shrink tunnel to form a block encompassing all end-of-line operations. The system requires one operator to control the whole rational working area and a changeover time of 4 min via a centralised user-friendly interface. The compact layout cuts floor space by as much as 25% and, the company says, it reduces the total cost of ownership by as much as 8% and the installation time by over 20%.
The infeed palletiser has a speed of 12 layers/min with a ground-level layout, providing good accessibility and visibility, with no pack elevator, stairs, gantries or elevated platforms required. It requires fewer conveyors than a high-level infeed system, and easy access to machine parts for maintenance.
The shrink tunnel provides separate control of airflow per section to aid shrinkage, a 1 to 3-lane tunnel with optimised air circulation and insulation to achieve energy savings, air circulation which is adjustable to the product’s height and collation and a gas-fired tunnel option contributing to lower energy costs and a smaller carbon footprint.
