Flowpack X-D can operate with a large variety of films and uniquely develop a header for the label application in order to provide optimal on-shelf standout.

“Our flowpack X-D machine is able to be personalised to each customer’s specific needs to deliver the perfect results.”

The machine features a box motion transversal sealing unit that facilitates a continuous high-output seal while concurrently producing the header, using two transverse sealing profiles to ensure the finished product has a perfect appearance.

The packs can be assembled using accumulation synchronisation or can be kept contact-free using cascade belts.

A colour printed card with product information and a best-before date can also be applied on one side of the pack.
