Refurbished Flow Pack Ilapak Carrera 2000. Three-motor packaging machine with top reel for packaging medium-sized, medium and high-speed products.
Top reel packaging machines are ideal for packing single products with regular shape or easy to place on the infeed belt. They are also very suitable for packaging products in trays or trays.

Welding on the bottom of the product

This type of flow pack packaging machine carries out a sealing at the top and at the end of the package thanks to the transversal sealer and a longitudinal seal under the product along the entire length. The result obtained is the typical flow pack that we are used to seeing in brioches.

Former tunnel

The forming tunnel is an element that shapes the film to allow the product to be wrapped without slowing down the packaging flow.
The fixed tunnel is particularly suitable for products with irregular shapes, such as products placed on cardboard or napkins.
The quality of the packaging is higher than the variable tunnel but it is limiting in the variety of products that can be packaged: this because for each product a tailor-made tunnel will have to be built with a relative increase in the costs of the packaging machine.

Rotary sealer

The rotary sealer is the most common type of sealer in flow pack packaging machines. It is a sealer composed of two spatulas fixed on two pins that rotate synchronously and which meet only once for each rotation. This type of welding allows for high packaging speeds with minimal cost technical equipment.
It is also possible to increase the packaging capacity by inserting an additional (or more) pair of spatulas to double or quadruple the speed. This option can almost never be implemented on existing machines but is very often used in the design phase of the flow pack packaging machine.
