Bundle wrapping with the ILW bundle wrapping machine can lower your packaging costs.
Bundle wrappers can be used to replace corrugated or chipboard boxes as well as provide basic protective packaging to larger individual products. The ILW inline overwrapper is the latest addition to the PACKAGE line of easy to use, easy to changeover overwrapping machines. This machine can serve as
- the overwrapper end of the line for primary packaging, what the consumer buys, or
- bundle wrapping for consumers in big box stores, or
- secondary bundle wrapping machine for delivery to retail stores and replace corrugated boxes.
This last application has implications for reducing packaging costs, transportation weight and overall packaging requirements.
Modeled on our high-speed, high performance FA-ST, the ILW is a machine running midline speeds for larger products or bundles. Like the FA-ST, the ILW uses accurate programmable drives and servomotors to propel its major axes.
