Product overviewHigh-speed wrapping machine for chocolate tablets and bars handling a sealed inner film and an outer paper or cardboard blank. Capacity: up to 250 ppm.
Designed to be the fastestHTB delivers one of the highest throughputs on the market, reaching up to 250 ppm with and without inclusions. The design removes speed-limiting elements: the long-seam flap is folded on the run during product transfer, and the folding box is oriented downward to exploit gravity and maximize throughput.
Eco-materials friendlyThe flexible sealing system and modular design allow HTB to process a wide range of wrapping materials, including paper-based or cardboard outer wraps and sealed inner films compatible with eco/mono-material solutions.
High quality through high precisionFull-electronic drive and control architecture ensure precise management of machine functions, gentle product handling and repeatable top performance for consistent wrapping quality.
Predictive maintenanceBuilt-in predictive maintenance features enable real-time diagnostics and parameter tuning to optimize maintenance planning and extend machine lifecycle.
Key mechanical solutionsNotable kinematic and mechanical choices sustain speed and reliability: long-seam flap folded on-the-run, downward folding box, and a folding box implemented with three independently driven elements (two pushers + one counter-pusher supporting the product from below) to feed very thin products at high speed.
Easy changeover and maintenanceFast size changeover via whole transfer-wheel replacement. Folding group and blank magazine are mounted on rails for easy access. Feeding and outfeed belts are removable thanks to the HTB middle-gap structure, reducing downtime and simplifying maintenance.
