Smipack FW550S-LR Flow Wrapper

The new FW series of automatic packaging machines with flow pack system, designed according to Industry 4.0 and IoT (Internet of Things) technological platforms, is the family of machines that completes the SMIPACK range. This low speed version is equipped with a cross sealing bar controlled by an intermittent motion servomotor. It is available in 4 models (two with upper reel and two with lower reel) and packs different types of items (even large-sized) in packages made up of simple or coupled flexible material (including polyethylene/polyolefin film) with a maximum output of 40 products/minute.

The simplified format changeover, the three pairs of wheels with pneumatic opening which carry out the dragging, longitudinal sealing and film folding operations, and a dynamic or adjustable conformer complete with accessories make these packaging machines the ideal solution for packing a wide range of long-life products (through injection of gas or nebulization of preservative flavorings) with different dimensions and heights, coming from several sectors.

• Low reel flow pack wrapper
• Intermittent cross sealing system
• Sliding surfaces of the products in AISI304
• 2000 mm - 78.74" infeed conveyor with adjustable guides
• Product loading infeed conveyor with belt (vanes system as optional)
• Removable infeed conveyor to facilitate cleaning
• Longitudinal sealing consisting of 3 pairs of drive wheels, the first pair pulls the film, the second does the sealing and the third folds the film
• Pneumatic opening of the longitudinal sealing wheels
• Motorized low reel holder
• Pneumatic expansion reel holder shaft
• Motorized product outfeed conveyor
• Cross sealing with bar 250 mm – 9.84”width
• Standard adjustable film conformer complete with accessories
• Variation of the sealing bar height position by means of a motor, storable by program (center seal)
• Variation of the longitudinal sealer height position by means of a motor, storable by program (center seal)
• Drawers to collect product waste, under the entire length of the infeed conveyor
• Motors configuration controlled by inverters: reel holder with asynchronous motor
• Motors configuration controlled by drivers: infeed conveyor/cross sealer/ longitudinal sealer/outfeed conveyor with indipendent brushless
• Machine stop in phase
• FLXMOD® control system equipped with:
  • operator Interface with Panel PC and 7” full-colour touch screen display with PLC user-friendly
  • IN/OUT control modules for digital, analog inputs/outputs and thermocouple-reading control.
• This system is able to check all operations, simply and precisely, such as:
  • electronic checking of the film tension
  • adjustment of product height storable by program
  • three sealing temperature adjustments, one on the longitudinal sealer, one on the upper cross sealer and one on the lower
    cross sealere
  • electronically controlled conveyor belt speed
  • process statistics:
    • pack counter
    • instantaneous production
    • machine efficiency
• Possibility of scheduling up to 50 different work cycles
• Emergency button
• Reduced power consumption
