n Beverages n Food n Pet food Our packaging system allows for the production of cardboard containers with a sealed inside edge. To this purpose, our patented skiver first peels off a thin layer of the edge that is to be sealed. The edge is then reshaped at the creaser unit. A patented water-cooled burner activates the polymer coating of the sealed area to the millimetre. An innovative folder and presser unit then seals the inside edge of the carton, thereby preventing liquids and other food substances from entering into the packaging. With a production speed of up to 1000 m/min and a...

The resulting downtimes can be reduced to a minimum through additional use of a quick change system. All necessary processes for flawless sharpening are programmable and fully automated. Additionally, all processes...
