It is not too soon for us to be thinking about what wrapping machinery we will take to Pack Expo 2010 at the end of October in Chicago…..

We will be showcasing how you can save film and energy by using overwrap rather than shrink wrap or flow wrap. We have demonstrated up to 50% reduction in film use through overwrap.

This year we are favoring our newest machines. They also happen to be lower cost wrapping machines to suit this economy.

For starts we are showing our new TTDF, a semi-automatic table top diefold wrapper for individual candies or small items. This low cost machine will wrap with paper, paper-backedfoil and film. It cycles at 15 per minute, but to date operators are not loading it that quickly. This machine is an economical and productive alternative to hand wrapping for small volume operations.

In an effort to make overwrapping more affordable, we are introducing the Wrapster JR. Just like its sibling the Wrapster and the FA-ST, it provides an economical tuck and fold wrap in paper or film. To make it cost effective, it uses cut sheets to provide the same sustainable, high quality wrap. Consider it a more attractive and less expensive alternative to shrink wrap.

We are also happy to discuss larger machines now in process. Our cost effective 3 axis servo FA-XP uses in-line film to handle larger products or bundles than the FA-ST at a more economical price.

Come see us at Booth S-1251 in the South hall of McCormick Place or email us at sales@packagemachinery.com to discuss more immediate needs.
