Stretch sleeves 2920

The BrandPak Multipack system uses a stretch-sleeve applicator and a moisture-resistant PE film as an environmentally-friendly alternative to paperboard containers for multipacking applications. The stretch sleeve applicators have a built-in, zero-downtime material accumulator that facilitates continuous machine operation; there are no stoppages for roll changes. The patented technology positively controls the flow of sleeving material, producing consistency over long production runs. There is no adhesive or heat applied, and the system will accommodate thin gauge material. The stretch sleeving process is engineered to allow operators to switch quickly from one job to the next with a tool-less changeover. Other user-friendly features include a motorized height adjustment and production and I/O monitoring on an HMI touchscreen.
