Snap lock Steel-rule Cutting. Effective in the mass production Bottom holes The KIEFEL SPEEDFORMER stands for a new dimension in the mass production of packaging components. The effective machine concept and the future oriented control system guarantee high performance and efficient production. So what’s the secret of this success? The high degree of automation and the ingeniously designed tool-change mechanism are worth mentioning in this context, as are the steel-rule cutter and the integrated stacking unit. A/B Stacking When thin materials due to cost reduction and high automation for...

KMD Speedformer Fast, quiet and reliable Convenient The intelligent operational concept of the KMD series does not just make your production processes easier to control and track; it also helps to ensure that they meet your objectives. This saves on waiting and tooling time, while increasing efficiency. Maintenance-friendly The KMD series is designed to ensure that the tool change and all maintenance work can be done very quickly. So the maximum time of production is available. Flexible The KIEFEL modular system allows the machine configuration to be matched precisely to individual...

Cupforming Pressure forming with separate stacking unit The THERMORUNNER automatic cup forming machines of the KTR SPEED series offer you more for less: More quality, more possibilities and more convenience for less outlay. Optimized forming areas permit more cavities per tool and thus greater production output. Sealing rim Material distribution Decoration The key for every decoration is the constancy and repeatability of material distribution and constancy of wall thickness. Transparency Barrier film production Controlled film temperature for repeatable product quality and high cutting...

Two-step film transport Provides perfect film feeding to the forming station Film spreading in index and cross direction Heating system Even temperature distribution over the entire forming area Black ceramic or metal heating elements Cross heaters ensure even temperature mixing at the feed steps before the forming station Forming and in-mould cutting station Large forming area with highest accuracy New sequence of motions/ kinematics Up to 60 metric-tons cutting power Water cooling system Fast, efficient cooling and extended tool life Perfect water temperature of 16-18°C 5 Individual...

Technology for the Packaging Industry We integrate thermoforming tools into our scope of supply. Comprehensive trials are the proof of our declared performance factors. A complete set of parameters is supplied along with the machine delivered, so you can start production at once. Testing of film criterias Parameters of the converted film are the main factors for features and quality of the customer’s product. KIEFEL CAT system The identification and optimizing of adjustment parameters (times, movements, stroke-length, heater settings, etc.) is carried out automatically by the system...

MODULAR SYSTEM The Modular KIEFEL System The KIEFEL automatic pressure forming machines can be expanded to meet requirements as they arise. Here are just a few examples: - Film pre-heating stations - Inline Extrusion ■ High-speed stacking unit ■ Rim Rolling for drinking cup ■ Packaging unit ■ Boxing for touch-free cup-production ■ Granulators ■ Sleeving for most hygianic packaging

Highly-innovative with maximum Productivity Material savings due to optimized chain-index drive Vertically-aligned chain for the index drive system, with greatly-reduced chain profile. Essential savings of material due to optimized combination of a new clampingframe/chain profile: Permits the use of simpler tools, as the profile requires less space. Ideal film temperature even at the edges, thanks to optimized profile geometry. The vertically-aligned chain means a longer service life. The pull on the film material is taken up the by the chainrollers, which greatly reduces friction wear....
