Flow-pack wrapping machine
The Theegarten-Pactec FPC5 horizontal packaging machine separates and wraps short items in flow-packs, including compressed stock cubes and tablets, at a speed of 1,500 units/min. It features 2-track synchronization, with each track isolating 750 units/min. An upper band with lugs is mounted along the width of both tracks to converge them into a single lane where the products are grouped.
