IPak, powered by Pro Mach, is featuring its expanded S Series of servo-based tray forming solutions at Pack Expo International, October 28-31, in Chicago’s McCormick Place. New S Series models include the TF-200, the industry’s first servo-based solution for triangulated retail ready trays, and the multi-functional TF-350 tray former.
The TF-200, TF-350 and other servo-driven S Series models deliver superior speed, tray flexibility, and forming consistency in a simpler, easy to maintain design than traditional mechanical solutions. Additional benefits include modular construction for easy integration and maintenance, fewer wear parts, and precise control. The S-Series comes standard with IPak smart servo technology, color touch-screen HMI, and rugged, durable construction for continuous, dependable operation in the most demanding environments.
The IPak TF-200 forms strong support, triangulated corners and other specialized corner post style trays suitable for most any “retail ready” display. Common applications including agricultural products, food processing, and consumer goods such as home cleaning and personal care. The new servo-based forming process continuously operates at speeds up to 35 trays per minute and delivers more consistent, square, and securely glued trays than other methods. The TF-200 also can create rollover display windows simultaneously with tray forming.
