Votomos, a leading Greek company in the natural and sparkling water sector, has chosen the Zambelli Packaging LFT50s shrink wrapper for its new production line.
Key features of Zambelli LFT50s Shrink Wrapper
This model of packaging machine is a film-only shrink wrapper, designed to reach speeds of up to 50 packs per minute, and to pack PET bottles of natural and sparkling water in 7 different formats.
Bottles range from small, 330ml with a diameter of 62mm, to large, 1.5L with a diameter of 88mm. The pack configurations vary widely, from 3x2 to 6x4, up to 4x3 for the 1L bottles.
This shrink wrapper is designed to be integrated into a production line where frequent format changes are expected. The key characteristics of a machine intended for this use are primarily three:
1. Speed of format change
2. Repeatability of adjustments
3. Quality of shrink wrapping across the entire range of packages
Quickly changing formats translates to increased productive time. Therefore, in Zambelli Packaging machines, the parts to be replaced are minimal and the procedure is very simple and clearly described in the documentation provided to the operator.
For parts that do not need replacement but just an adjustment, there are handwheels with digital position readers or millimeter sliders, capable of eliminating manual approximations that could lead to errors on the line. This, combined with the sturdiness of the structure, ensures the repeatability of adjustments without requiring any adjustments each time.
Finally, since it has to package both small and large packs, it’s important that the shrink tunnel has optimized airflow for the geometry of all packs, regardless of their size, always ensuring the minimum necessary energy consumption.
