Hugo Beck Servo X

These machines cover the broadest possible range of horizontal film packaging applications.

servo X Form Fill and Seal machines are available in five performance ranges and numerous variants. They cover the broadest possible range of horizontal film packaging applications for various industries – and all this with maximum modularity.

The machines can be configured individually and thus meet all requirements for the desired performance or type of packaging. Depending on the machine variant, several packaging styles can be flexibly produced with one machine.

Whether chain infeed or infeed conveyor, servo X machines win over with their continuous packaging process and no stop-and-go, meaning dead time is not an issue when sealing. Besides high performance, this enables extremely tight-fitting and precise packaging with a saving in film of up to 15 %. This ensures that the film packaging‘s excellent appearance is unrivalled.

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).

Bottom Cut Seal

This packaging style uses a cut seal underneath the product and, if required, high-quality shrink packaging is also possible. This is particularly suitable for packing round products with film. As an example, shrink packs of aerosol cans for the cosmetics industry can easily be produced.

A fixed or adjustable forming shoulder is available to form the film sleeve.

This packaging style can be produced at performance speeds of up to 50 m/min.]

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.

Bottom Overlap Thermo Seal/Static Seal

This overlap seal is applied in the middle of the product below. Hugo Beck uses the technology of seal welding or ionisation (with shrinking). This allows the overlap to be set centrally or laterally.

With fixed or adjustable forming shoulders, the film sleeve is optimally produced.

Speeds of up to 80 m/min are achievable with a bottom overlap and there is no film waste.
