Features tool-free changeovers in the metering section and fewer parts for less maintenance and faster changeovers. Slipsheet technology is said to eliminate damage to labels and products that sometimes occurs with traditional pin metering technology. Unit runs round, square, and bundled products, and is used on Douglas product lines including Axiom® Case and Tray Packers and Contour™ Tray Packers, Shrink Packers, and Multiwrappers.
