Horizontal bagging machine FR 305

HFFSrotarypillow bag

Summary
Horizontal Flow Wrapper (HFFS) producing a three-seal pillow pack. Suited for bakery, biscuits, chocolates and confectionery industries.

Description
The new FR 305 is the result of ULMA’s commitment to innovation and technological development. Developed within the range of rotary jaw packaging machines, the FR 305 replaces previous bottom-film rotary jaw models, combining proven experience and reliability with the latest technological advances. The machine features a cantilever ergonomic design for easier cleaning and sanitizing, and high flexibility for format changeovers thanks to an industrial PC electronic platform. These characteristics make the FR 305 suitable for packing irregular or difficult-to-transfer products.
