If you’re a business manager whose business uses packaging machinery, you may wonder if you can increase your packaging efficiency. If so, you may be interested in the package wrapping machinery offered via the Sollas line of packaging machines. Our Sollas machines have shown a difference in packaging quality, consistency, and efficiency. Whether your company needs machinery for overwrapping or banding, you should consider switching to Sollas wrapping machines.
Sollas Machinery for Top Efficiency
According to TSB, the Sollas line of machinery originated from Amsterdam in 1948. However, Sollas’s reputation has allowed it to expand to other European distribution plants and is now recognized worldwide for its efficiency and knowledge. The Sollas line of machinery is offered by RTG (Roberts Technology Group). RTG has a stellar reputation in the food handling industry for its safe and efficient packaging of pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, paper, and confections. We have been providing packaging solutions for companies all over the world since 1995.
The Sollas line of machinery excels at a style of package wrapping called overwrapping. Sollas’ wrapping machinery typically uses overwrapping to securely wrap square and rectangular packages. Overwrapping, sometimes called “tuck and fold” wrapping, is considered ideal for protection from moisture, damage, and theft. Products that use this type of wrapping include foods, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics.
Overwrapping vs. Shrink Wrapping and Flow Wrapping
You may wonder how overwrapping compares to shrink wrapping. The main advantage of overwrapping is its ability to avoid the use of a heat tunnel (as is used for shrink wrapping) since overwrapping requires heat only at the seal mark of its packaging. If you’re using polypropylene packaging, your packages look better when overwrapped since this process produces crisply folded corners. Shrink wrapping can be reserved for packages with unique wrapping shapes.
Your business may currently be using flow wrapping to provide resealable pouches for products such as chips, candy, and energy bars. By switching to a Sollas overwrapping machine, you will decrease the amount of wrapping film used for each package. If you prefer wrapping your products in paper, wax paper, or cellophane, our Sollas machines can also accommodate those materials.
Introducing The Sollas FSX Overwrapper
Our newest and most overwrapper is the Sollas FSX, the world’s only servo-driven overwrapping machine. This machine can wrap up to 160 products per minute and boasts a 10-minute (or less) turnaround for a change of size. According to TSB, this efficient changeover for various sizes is made possible by a Sollas technology called Power Drive.
Your company may also be searching for a more efficient way to create package banding. You’ll be happy to learn that Sollas offers an efficient solution for package banding equipment with its Sollas Bandum 25/50. This machine produces polyethylene bands of various sizes that can safely bundle your products. Our product banding can also provide tamper-proofing for your products. You’ll enjoy a low-maintenance experience while supplying high-end product banding and bundling.
