    Saving tip

    • The higher the stretching rate, the lower is the material consumption

    Models and benefits

    Wide output range for shrink sleeves

    Field of applications

    • Shrink sleeves – also special formats

    Technical features

    • Wide output range thanks to modular design
    • Linear machine
    • Electronic gap detection at the machine infeed
    • Infeed worm with servo drive
    • Sleeve feed via a stand-alone sleeve buffer system
    • Sleeve supply unit for reel change-over without machine stop
    • Height-adjustable cutting unit with sleeve conveyor
    • Integral control cabinet, ready for connection

    Output

    • Sleevematic M1: Up to 27,000 containers per hour
    • Sleevematic MD2: Up to 54,000 containers per hour


    Benefits to you

    Short change-over times

    The Sleevematic M can be changed to other formats within minimum time.

    High-precision sleeve application

    The servo-controlled cutting unit guarantees exact cutting lengths. The belt station can exactly be adjusted in millimetres and thereby ensures infinitely variable adjustment of the sleeve height on the container.

    Hygienic design

    The machine base frame is completely made of stainless steel. The container handling parts are of open design and therefore easily cleaned.

    M = Modular

    The turbo machine for shrink sleeves

    Field of applications

    • High-speed processing of shrink sleeves

    Technical feature – main machine

    • At the push of a button, the contact pressure of the feed rollers is adjusted via pneumatic cylinders.
    • Sleeves are conveyed without slippage via servo-motor-driven rollers.
    • The new sleeve perforator exactly separates the cut off sleeves.
    • No replacement of knives required for type change-overs.
    • An integrated climbing aid for operators enables the ergonomic replacement of handling parts.
    • The infeed worms are stored directly in the machine and therefore ready for use at any time.

    Technical features – sleeve buffer system

    • Stand-alone and can therefore be individually positioned
    • Capacity for two sleeve reels with a total of approx. 4,000 m of film


    Benefits to you

    Thanks to rotary cutters which perforate the film sleeve continuously in stead of in cycles, the Sleevematic TS can process 50,000 containers per hour. The highly precise perforation blades ensure a straight cut even at high speed.

    A set of perforation blades can perform 70 million cuts before it wears out. Conventional cutting units can only master a tenth of this.

    No replacement of knives required for type change-overs.

    Owing to the fact, that the rotating perforation cutters are operating regardless of the format, the Sleevematic TS requires significantly less handling parts than all other sleeving systems.

    TS = Top Speed

    Proven technology for stretch and shrink sleeves

    Field of applications

    • Stretch sleeves with a stretching rate of up to 15 percent
    • Shrink sleeves

    Technical features

    • Rotary machine
    • Depending on the required output, available as single or double carrousel variant
    • Electronic cap inspection and gap detection at the machine infeed
    • Infeed worm with overload clutch
    • Feeding of sleeves from two sleeve reels
    • Sleeve supply unit for reel change-over
    • Height-adjustable cutting unit with sleeve conveyor
    • Electronic container counter
    • Integral control cabinet, ready for connection
    • Central lubrication points


    Benefits to you

    Long-life design

    The rugged mechanical design makes sure that the Sleevematic AF provides a high operational reliability and a long service life.

    Precise operation

    The cam-controlled application fork reliably transmits the sleeve label onto the container. Even humidity and moisture do not affect machine operation: In any case, it ensures perfectly fitting sleeves.

    Uncomplicated and flexible technology

    The machine is suitable for handling different sleeve lengths and diameters. It can be easily cleaned and provides optimum access and is therefore user-friendly in day-to-day operation.

    AF = Applicator Fork
