The models available provide performances up to 450 packs/min (in triple lane), depending on the model chosen and on the type of product to pack. SMI shrink wrappers and case packers can be integrated with a SMI palletiser to form a “Packbloc” compact end-of-line system. Yes, up to 150 cycles/min (cans) in 3 lanes Yes No Yes Yes Yes Yes, up to 150 cycles/min (cans) in 3 lanes Yes, up to 140 ppm Yes, up to 140 ppm Thanks to the precise analysis of thermodynamic phenomena generated by the shrink process, SMI tunnel distributes hot air fl ows in an effi cient and homogeneous way on the pack, thus ensuring its good quality at the end of the process.
