More on Overwrappers
Overwrapping machinery applies a layer of paper or plastic wrapping over a primary package or another form of packaging, often for flat, rectangular, cylindrical or cubical products, such as an overwrap for a sealed carton of perfume. They can improve efficiency, reduce labor costs, and ensure consistent and high-quality packaging.
In general, automatic overwrapping machines are designed to wrap products with a layer of film or other materials, providing an extra layer of protection, while improving the aesthetics of the product. They are capable of working at high speeds, handling a range of product sizes and shapes. Using various technologies, such as heat sealing, glue sealing and mechanical folding, they wrap products very efficiently.
Their primary purpose is to offer an extra safeguarding layer to the primary packaging. For instance, a clear plastic film can be wrapped around a small carton containing a perfume bottle or personal care item. The overwrapping procedure commences by propelling the product through heat-sealable film, which is obtained from a larger roll. The machine then tucks and folds film around the product, using heated plates to seal it tightly, resulting in a package that bears a resemblance to gift wrapped items.
Case shrink wrappers are a specific type used to wrap cases of products with shrink film, providing a tight and secure wrap. These machines use heat to shrink the film around the case, creating a seal. Similarly, flexible package wrappers are used for wrapping products such as snacks, candies, and other small products. They use a range of materials such as plastic films, paper, and aluminum foil to wrap the products efficiently.
Heat-seal film overwrappers are used to wrap products with a heat-sealable film, creating a tight seal around the product. They have many use cases, but are especially valuable when shipping items that are sensitive to moisture. There are also peel-away wrapper machines, often used for products such as candy bars, snacks, and similar items. These wrappers are easy to open, providing convenience for consumers.
Polywrappers are another commonly used example applied to newspapers, magazines, and other printed materials. These machines use polyethylene film to wrap the products, providing protection from dust and liquids during transportation. Tray bundling/wrapping machines are designed to wrap products such as meat, poultry, and other products that require a tray for packaging. These machines use a range of materials such as plastic films, paper, and aluminum foil to wrap the products efficiently.
Overall, overwrapping machinery has a variety of uses for packagers and manufacturers. Its ability to protect the product, while providing another means by which companies can utilize their brand assets, makes them an essential piece of the process line for many products.
