August 23, 2007 - Portland, CT - Standard-Knapp introduced its advanced continuous motion 596S Continuum Shrink Wrapper. Designed to handle PET, glass, and metal containers, Standard-Knapp’s Shrink Wrapper is ideal for applications in the food, beverage, and household product industries.
Engineered with Single Roll Lap Seal Technology, the 596S Continuum Shrink Wrapper is a low-maintenance alternative to shrink wrappers with traditional mechanical seal bars. Standard-Knapp’s Shrink Wrapper utilizes servo motion to adjust speed easily according to product flow, maintaining a continuous motion with speeds of up to 80 trays per minute.
The 596S Continuum Shrink Wrapper features a PLC control system, with operator interfaces for both the tray and shrink functions, as well as a smaller interface at the shrink cut to assist in set-up. Precise film cutting is done with a simple rotating blade and is controlled by a servo system. The dual film reel holder contains a spare roll that is easily accessible for fast film reloading. The Shrink Wrapper is also available with optional printed film registration. Infeed for the Shrink Wrapper can be easily integrated with a 296 Continuum Tray Packer discharge.
