Universa 400
Fully Automatic Side Sealer
Innovative technology makes the UNIVERSA
400 fast and versatile to deliver a smooth and precise
packaging process with speeds up to 70 packs per minute.
The wheel/knife side seal combination enables the UNIVERSA to
produce clean and secure longitudinal seams. The knife removes
excess film by cutting within the sealed strip that has been created
by the sealing wheel. The system is particularly effective when
packaging tall products and when sealing multi-layer, cross-linked
co-polymer films at high speeds.
The machine is controlled by a SIEMENS S7 industrial PLC. The
transport of each product through the machine is continuously
controlled by an electronic supervisor. The supervisor detects the
actual position of each pack and optimizes the machine cycle for
every individual pack. This makes product or speed changes simple,
quick, and extremely precise.
Film guides, side seal and cross seal can be adjusted with a single
hand wheel. An optional Ethernet interface allows the integration of
a UNIVERSA into modern, fully automated production lines and the
linking of the machine to a production control computer.The Universa
400 is operated with a multilingual, colored Touch panel, SIEMENS TP
270. The standard integrated Product Data Memory can save up to 250
different products which can be recalled exactly at any time.
