Overfeed Horizontal Flow Wrappers
A horizontal flow wrapper is a packaging machine that wraps a product in film while it is carried along a horizontal conveyor belt. The film is sealed on three sides: a central seal runs along the bottom of the package, and two end seals are made at both ends of the product. This process ensures a secure and professional-looking package. The system typically uses pusher chain lugs or a conveyor belt to guide the product through the packaging process.
Overfeed Horizontal Flow Wrappers Best For:
Horizontal flow wrappers are perfect for solid, individual items like candy bars, health bars, snack foods, bath bombs, and medical items. They are especially effective for products that are stable on their bases and can be easily moved along a conveyor without damage.
Inverted Horizontal Flow Wrappers
Inverted flow wrappers work similarly to an overfeed horizontal flow wrappers but with an inverted film feed. In this setup, the product transitions from the infeed conveyor directly on top of the film before it is wrapped. This is ideal for handling delicate or fragile items. These machines usually use a conveyor belt system but can also employ a pusher chain system depending on the product’s requirements.
Inverted Flow Wrappers Best For:
Inverted flow wrappers are particularly suited for soft, sticky, or irregular-shaped items that could be damaged or dislodged by standard pusher lugs. Commonly packaged products include tortillas, fresh produce, and other delicate items.
How Does a Flow Wrapper Work?
Product Loading
Products are placed on a conveyor and fed into the flow wrapper.
Film Feeding
A roll of packaging film is unwound and fed into the machine, where it wraps around the product.
Sealing
The machine seals the film along the length of the product to create a tube, then seals and cuts the film at both ends, forming individual packages.
Finished Packaging
The wrapped products are moved out of the machine, ready for further handling or shipping.
