TWO SIDES GLUED AT FRONT & REAR, TOP OVERLAP GLUED

This paper packaging format, which is produced on the paper X Form Fill and Seal machine, is a high-speed application. A sleeve is formed by folding and gluing the paper at the top to enclose the product. The paper sleeve is then glued at the front and rear to form the finished pack. For this purpose, a glue line is applied in the infeed area of the paper, at right angles to the running direction. The product lies between the glue lines which are then pressed and sealed with a travelling cross sealing unit.

Production speeds of up to 12,000 cycles/hour are available with this packaging style.

As an option, Hugo Beck’s machines automatically adjust the bag to the length of the product being packed.

SIDE SEAL

Side sealing machines with film waste rewinders pack products with a lateral cut seal. As an option, machines can include a non-stop film waste disposal in production. Many different products can be bagged with Hugo Beck’s form fill and seal machines. Bags can be completely shrunk or simply sealed at the sides. No exchange parts are required to cope with different product sizes.

The lateral cut seal guarantees a high-quality pack finish without any film remaining on the product. Thanks to our patented tight packaging only as much film is used as is truly needed! This not only guarantees an unrivalled and outstanding finish to the film packaging, depending on the machine type, a film saving of up to 15% is also delivered.

The “side seal” packaging style can be produced at performance speeds of up to 80m/min.

Hugo Beck packaging machines process all types of machine-compatible films at maximum speeds including those that are considered problematic, for example due to their sealing ability, such as extremely thin packaging films available from just 7μm (e. g. polyolefin), 100%  recyclable films made from monomaterials (e. g. polypropylene) and those made from recycled materials and bioplastics (e. g. PLA films).

OVERLAP ON TOP

With this flexible overlap sealing, products can be closed at the top, centre or side. This shrink-wrapping technology is the perfect choice for the packaging of mailing products such as magazines or catalogues.

Instead of sealing, the products can also be wrapped in film with hot glue.

Film packaging with an overlap on top is available at production speeds up to 80 m/min.
