Flow pack wrapping is a popular option for the individual wrapping of soft caramel, chewing gum, and other chewy candy products. Traditional cut and pack machines are inflexible, and upgrades or changes require all-new machinery. By adopting a modular design using sub-assemblies, a modern cut and wrap machine offers complete flexibility and easy upgrade path for future product changes, all while offering the highest speeds available.

Modular cut and flow pack machine for chewing gums and soft candy

The FPW5 from Theegarten Pactec is a high-speed forming, cutting and wrapping machine for products in flow packs. It has been designed specifically to handle chewing gum, hard and soft caramels, chewy candy, and toffees by mating with either rope sizing machine or extruder and cooling tunnel.

Designed for mass-production, the FPW5 is able to produce up to 1,500 pieces per minute, wrapped in either heat or cold sealed foil.

Cut product enters the wrapping assembly via sliding transport on lug chain. This makes product size changeover easy via simple lug chain and transport belt adjustments.

Wrapping foil is continuously fed thanks to an automatic splicer. This is available with or without print registration to suit your exact requirements. Other options include a date coding device, tear tape device, and label dispenser.

Foil sealing is available via a range of options to suit your requirements: a two- or three-stage longitudinal sealer suitable for cold or hot sealing; long-seam sealer; segmented cross sealing with up to 4 jaws; cross-seam sealing in longitudinal or transverse directions.

For the handling of multipack products, the optional cardboard dispenser and grouping device can be included. Other discharge options include gravity discharge chute or discharge conveyor with a separate drive.

A range of sealing options and styles for heat or cold seal foils is available. These include a two- or three-stage longitudinal sealer suitable for cold or hot sealing; long-seam sealer; segmented cross sealing with up to 4 jaws; cross-seam sealing in longitudinal or transverse directions.

Thanks to its fully automatic operation and simple touchscreen HMI, several FPC5 machines can easily be overseen by a single operator.

Bottom fold wrapping is an attractive solution for hard candies, toffees, and eclairs. However, traditional wrapping solutions are often too rough to wrap at higher speeds. They also require additional downstream units to add secondary packaging. A purpose-designed, high-speed bottom wrapper with combined flow wrapper with gentle handling offers increased throughput and reduced costs even for high-quality and delicate products.

The HCW4+FPC5 from Theegarten Pactec is a custom-designed high-speed wrapping machine for bottom fold wrapping of hard candies and similar products. The direct connection of a high-speed flow pack unit enables the individual products to be grouped and secondary-packaged, increasing efficiency and reducing cost.

Designed to operate at up to 1,500 pieces per minute, the HCW4+FPC5 can bottom fold products in wax paper, cellophane, polypropylene, or aluminium / coated paper. It can then flow pack grouped items using hot or cold sealed foil.

Designed for gentle handling, the machine uses the continuous motion principle to enable high-speed packing of even delicate items. Highest quality results are also ensured by the feeding system with integrated sorting station to remove sugar dust, chips, and broken pieces before wrapping.

The flow pack unit features a durable servo motor driven foil pre-draw off system. This allows accurate splicing at the print mark position at full machine speed, minimizing the amount of spliced products rejected.

The combined unit is controlled via a single touchscreen HMI and requires only one operator. The HCW4+FPC5 has been designed with excellent accessibility in all areas, facilitating operation, maintenance, and cleaning.
