Continuous motion shrink wrapper

To complement their S Series medium speed and N Series high speed VEGA Shrink wrappers (360 packs per minute), OCME of Parma Italy have released their "baby", the VEGA X Series, which is capable of operating at up to 30 cycles per minute, in one, two or three lane versions.

The X series is available as a film only (multiple lane), pad + film or tray + film (single lane only) wrapper, suitable for PET, glass or cans.

The X series is a truly modular design, compact, simple, extremely flexible, with encoder controlled movements and in-phase stopping, controlled by a Siemens or Allen-Bradley PLC. There are no servo motors. All proprietary components are from major international suppliers and readily available in the local market.

Size changes are quick, with few parts required and a product format selection system consisting of double pneumatically operated gates, which are self adjusting when product infeed channels are adjusted. All changeparts are colour and numerically coded to prevent error and require no tools. Product changepart charts are fitted at critical points on the machine.

The patented double reel film feed and no contact film cutting module are identical to that used on the high speed machines. P.E. registration is available for printed films.

The Shrink Tunnel, employing OCME's latest air circulation technology for producing wrinkle-free packs, is as supplied with the high speed machines.
