VR7 box

FLOWPACK

VR7 Box is a flow-pack machine with a transfer-type sealing system, bottom reel, and photo-eye system for product position detection and control. It is an efficient, flexible, and easy-to-manage solution.

Due to its characteristics, it is suitable for packaging products that are difficult to handle due to their shape, size, weight, or indeterminate length, as well as those with an uneven base. It can adapt to different applications and a vast range of product sizes.

The simple touch screen adjustments and the product detection photocell system make it an easy-to-manage solution.

The VR7 Box works well with a variety of packaging materials, including recyclables, biodegradable, compostable, and paper films that the market demands for environmental

sustainability.

features

  • No product No bag: avoids making empty bags, putting the machine on standby for the conveyor to deliver the product with immediate restart when available.
  • Transmission through 6 axes driven by independent inverters: for better management of each movement, achieving greater recipe optimisation and versatility.
  • Automatic product spacing: it adequately separates the products whether they are too close or too far apart.
  • High resolution barrier type photocells allow precise detection of each product and its correct separation.
  • Stop in phase, avoids overheating of the film in case of prolonged stop, preserving the seals.
  • Jaw filter for misaligned product, prevents the product from being caught by the sealing jaws.
  • Universal forming tunnel, to adapt to any format, allowing the width of the bag to be adjusted on demand.
  • Unwinding film system , facilitates dragging, achieving greater welding performance.
  • Expandable reel support, simplifies and speeds up the positioning of the film reels.
  • Control panel with colour touch screen, for a quick and intuitive selection and change of formats (40 configurable recipes).
  • Real-time check screens, automaton diagnostics and malfunctions. For a quick diagnosis of the machine status.
  • Storable temperatures for each recipe, facilitates and speeds up the change of formats.
  • Preventive maintenance notice, to warn of the appropriate time for a check-up.
  • Speed can be memorised for each recipe, to facilitate format changeover.
  • Immediate jaw retraction in case of jamming, facilitates product evacuation and preserves the head mechanics.
  • Jaw release with push button, for precise and efficient resetting in the event of jamming.
  • Automatic sealing wheels opening, to make it easier to insert the film into the machine.

options

The VR7 Box can be customised with multiple accessories to increase efficiency based on customer needs and/or product requirements.

Some of the accessories are:

  • Photo-eye system for registered film, allowing the use of films printed with marks to centre the design on the product.
  • Air ejector, which partially extracts air from inside the package just before it is sealed.
  • Gas flushing device, a system for modifying the atmosphere inside the pack to extend the shelf life of the product.
  • Stop no Film, stops the machine automatically if the film reel runs out.
  • English Fold, a system that allows the edges of the pack to be brought closer to the product for a more compact pack appearance.
  • Special height of head-cutter, For products that exceed the limits of the standard machine height range.
  • Printers/Markers, to print directly on the film in real time, information such as batch number, production/expiration date or barcodes and images.
  • Labellers: to apply or print labels on the finished pack or directly on the film before forming.
  • Rotary table: positioned at the exit of the flow-wrapper, it receives the products already packaged to facilitate successive packaging operations.
  • Retractable conveyor belts:  for automatically approaching product conveyor belts to prevent jamming with unevenly based products.
  • Automatic loaders, customised for each specific circumstances and needs.
  • Other peripherals: weight controls
