Stretch sleeve packaging technology that gives you a new experience

Stretch casing packaging equipment has been widely used in the international market. This high tensile strength packaging has the advantages of beautiful packaging effect, saving film cost and increasing packaging speed. It is widely used in food and beverages. , household appliances and other industries, can effectively replace the heat shrink packaging, turnover packaging, effectively reduce packaging costs for enterprises.

With the rapid development of the Chinese packaging market, more and more foreign suppliers are eager for the Chinese market, and stretch casing packaging is no exception. Currently in the internationally renowned Rahmmeier Packaging Machinery Company and Maschinenfabrik Mllers GmbH has clearly stated that it hopes to enter the Chinese market and MSK Verpackungs-Systeme, which has entered the Chinese market, hopes to have more success.

After a large number of interviews and surveys, this publication has received positive feedback from many companies and hopes to understand this packaging technology. This issue will bring you the “Tension Packaging Technology for Your New Experience” presented by Rachmer Packaging Machinery and Equipment. In the next issue, we will introduce MSK Verpackungs-Systeme, Maschinenfabrik M llers GmbH, and ExxonMobil (China) Investment Co., Ltd. to introduce the packaging technology. stay tuned!

The principle of stretch-sleeve packaging technology is continuously gaining recognition in the world, and it should be attributed to many basic advantages of this technology over other packaging systems. Stretch casing packaging equipment is not only suitable for packaging bags of goods, with the development of new films, this technology can now also be used in food, beverage, brick, household appliances, and paper products and other industries packaging.

Development and advantages of stretch sleeve packaging technology

From the aspect of packaging technology, compared with shrink packaging and wrapping packaging, stretched casing packaging has the advantages of lower film consumption, smooth surface, and optimal visual effect for the post-stack tamper packaging, thereby ensuring the Excellent product display, waterproof and dustproof packaging effect, suitable for outdoor storage. In addition, its low energy consumption minimizes its environmental impact. Another advantage of this device is that it reduces the number of film roll replacements. The conventional wrap-around package has more than 20 times the number of film replacements over the stretched sleeve packaging, resulting in more labor and downtime, leading to increased costs. . In summary, the advantages of stretch-sleeve packaging compared to shrink-wrapped packaging are the following: savings in film cost and reduction in return rates; the advantages compared to wrapping are: saving on the amount of film used, increasing the speed of packaging, and reducing the return rate.

Stretch sleeve packaging is one of the most economical and flexible packaging methods to ensure that the load is safe and reliable. Compared with shrink packaging, stretch sleeve packaging can save nearly 30% of the cost. In addition, it is cheaper than traditional winding packaging because winding packaging requires multiple films to achieve the same strength and protection. This kind of equipment can usually recover costs in about 1 to 2 years. Of course, this depends on the production capacity of the selected equipment, equipment model, film type, size and thickness, as well as the packaging method used in the previous period.

Because the stretch sleeve film packaging provides the best lateral and longitudinal gripping force for the palletizing, it provides the most suitable palletizing stability for the cargo. The load and the tray are closely connected in a fixed unit, effectively ensuring the safety of transportation. Stretch casing packaging is also a 100% moisture-proof and dust-proof packaging that can achieve outdoor inventory. And when the stretching sleeve film is added with anti-ultraviolet material, it can be stored outdoors even under sunlight.
Although stretch-sleeve packaging machines require a special stretch film. However, throughout the world, high-quality stretch film can be purchased in Asia, including China.

Rahmer's Stretch Tubular Packaging Equipment The stretch casing packaging equipment produced by Rachmer Packaging Machinery & Equipment Inc. includes the Multi Flex and Power Flex machines. The flexibility of Multi Flex's equipment can handle a variety of pallet loading models from 1/4, 1/2 to 1/1, etc. It is possible to use one machine to automatically switch between different pallet models to complete casing packaging. . Power Flex is a space-saving machine whose unique design enables the packaging of one or more model trays with minimal changes.

The working cycle of casing packaging is as follows:

1. The optical power supply measures the height of the loaded tray and feeds it into the machine. At the same time, the film is fed into the film opening system.
2. Separate the membranes by suction and grasp the membrane with a robot arm during separation.
3. Four specially designed film grippers move into the open film and a portion of the desired film is wrapped around the gripper. The film is then sealed to form a hood and cut with a knife.
4. The film cover is stretched hydraulically to a circumference that fits the size of the tray.
5. The film cover is placed on the pallet to achieve the best horizontal and vertical stretching effect.
6. The film gripper pulls the film cover to the bottom of the pallet so that very important bottom stretches are achieved and the best item safety during transport is ensured.

China will be the future market

The potential for demand for packaging machinery in many different areas of China has great potential, but overall, as China's user companies are not yet familiar with this packaging technology, on the surface there has not been any demand for this in the market. Therefore, Rachmer Packaging Machinery Company believes that their current task is to promote and introduce stretch casing packaging technology and its many benefits to customers in the Chinese market.
