Horizontal bagging machine FM 300

HFFSPLC-controlledfully-automatic

Description
FM 300 is a horizontal Flow Wrapper (HFFS) designed to produce hermetically sealed three-seal pillow packs for fresh food, including Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) applications. The machine is built on a cantilevered stainless-steel frame and features easily disassembled components for hygiene and fast sanitation.

Key features

• Electronic machine driven by multiple independent motors synchronized and controlled by an Industrial PC motion control system for flexibility and reduced changeover time.
• Construction on a cantilevered stainless-steel frame to minimize dirt traps and ensure easy access for maintenance.
• Removable in-feed conveyor designed for quick disassembly and cleaning.
• Front-loading reel holder with pneumatic film roll fastening for simplified reel changeover.
• Fully flexible forming box; the machine stores product height and recalls it at changeover to set sealing roller height and cross-seal centre automatically.
• Box Motion sealing head powered by two independent motors, enabling hermetic seals suitable for MAP without compromising throughput.
• Independent temperature control for different roller sets and for top/bottom sealing jaws; temperature management integrated into the touch screen.
• Control panel mounted on a swivel arm with touch screen and intuitive menus for easy access from any position.
• Standard functions include 'No product - no bag' and misplaced product detection.

Main optional elements

• Versions for different films (BOPP, shrink film, barrier laminates OPA/PE or similar).
• Print registration photocell.
• On-line gas analysis systems for MAP verification.
• Various in-feed conveyor designs and lengths to fit plant layouts.
• Wide range of printing equipment options.
• Interface to production control software.
