FEATURES & BENEFITS

MODEL SW-75 BREAD WRAPPER

Solid Frame

A solid frame was chosen over a stainless steel tubular weldment for long term durability. We back this with

a 25-year warranty.

Simplicity

Only 4 of the original 9 cams remain. Most of the linkages and adjustment points related to these cams have been removed as well, resulting in greatly improved access for maintenance or changeovers. The Bottom Bed is now very similar to our Side Sealer System, as there are no driven parts

Automatic Set-up and Monitoring

Servos, AC drives, Electric Solenoids and Pneumatics now control most machine functions through a PLC.

These features dramatically simplify set-up and greatly reduce operator input and adjustment. Critical set-up systems are automatically measured and will not allow the machine to run if they are out of specification. Machine set-up can be accomplished 2 ways; by selection of a product on the standard touch screen, or by selection of a “Size to Pusher” option (Patent Pending). Either way automatically measures the pusher plate, top end and cross-feed and sets the correct positions.

Remote Access

The control system is Ethernet / Modem ready for remote troubleshooting and monitoring. Most machine functions can be diagnosed remotely without the time delay of dispatching a technician. Costs associated with equipment service, and more importantly down time, can be greatly reduced with this feature.

Load Sharing and POD

Packaging on Demand (POD) is a feature to save machine wear. If product is not present, it will sequentially shut down or idle subsystems of the machine and “wake up” when product is again present. In multiple unit installations, product load to each machine can be sensed. If one machine is idled, the remaining units can increase speed to help absorb the load.

Film Feed

The standard paper feed system requires only the operator to load the film and set the width. The rest of the system is automatic and requires no operator adjustments. The film spool sits on a pair of rollers that are driven with an AC drive and controlled by a dancer sensor. This is less complicated and less expensive than a servo controlled unit that pulls the film through a series of rollers.

An automatic film splicer is available as an option. Production is never interrupted or slowed down during film changes and the splice is hardly noticeable.

Sealing

The patented Side Sealer System is undisputedly recognized as the best in the industry. So much so, that our customers have installed them on competitive machines. With no driven parts, flexibility of arrangement and very accurate temperature control, it continues to lead the industry.
