Innopack Kisters Wrap-aroundShrinkPaperPacker Advanced

The Innopack Kisters Wrap-aroundShrinkPaperPacker Advanced (WSPP A) is capable of processing with three different types of secondary packaging: wrap-around cartons, where the pack is enclosed in cardboard; trays with or without a paper or shrink film wrapping; and cardboard pads wrapped in paper or shrink film.

The machine can package cylindrical containers — including beverage cans — that have a compact shape and even surface to make them suitable for wrapping in paper.

The modular design of all Innopack Kisters Advanced packaging machines enables an existing Innopack Kisters Wrap-aroundShrinkPacker (WSP) or Innopack Kisters Wrap-aroundPaperPacker (WPP) to be retrofitted as a WSPP A.

In the new folding module, folding tools tightly fold and erect the paper around the sides of the packs with precision. The separate KHS InnoHotMelt applicator with its needle valves ensures the glue application.

An optional automatic glue pellet feed system is also available for uninterrupted production. In the setting unit of this module the glued side flaps are pressed onto the pack and fixed by foam-coated application belts.

If paper is used in place of film, the machine conveys the finished packs through the shrink tunnel that has been switched off. If paper wrapping is to replace film packaging entirely, the shrink tunnel can be completely removed.
