Food – Tray/Pad Supported

How Tray and Pad Supported Food Packaging Machines Improve Product Stability

Tray and pad supported food packaging machines help manufacturers automatically accumulate, collate, place, and wrap products while improving package stability and product presentation. EDL systems support corrugated trays, pads, U-board packaging, tray shrink wrapping, and high-speed continuous-motion wrapping for food and beverage applications.

EDL tray and pad supported food packaging machines support continuous-motion wrapping, tray wrapping, side-feed wrapping, shrink wrapping, and integrated tray forming applications. Choose the technology that suits your production needs:

• Continuous Motion Inline Automatic Wrap – A continuous-motion wrapping system with servo-controlled seal jaws designed for increased throughput and flexible supported or unsupported product handling.

• Flight Bar Automatic – An automatic shrink wrapping machine ideal for lightweight products and small multi-packs requiring controlled handling.

• Semi-Automatic Wrapper – A semi-automatic packaging solution for trayed, trayless, or padded products in reduced throughput environments.

• Side Feed Automatic – A compact side-feed shrink wrapping system designed for collated products and narrow-edge-leading orientation.

• Shrink Tunnel – A heated shrink tunnel that tightly conforms shrink film around packaged products for secure transportation and storage.

• Inline Automatic Wrapper – A flexible automatic wrapper for shrink or bagged packaging applications with automated centering and sealing.

• Single Roll Wrapper – A high-speed continuous-motion shrink wrapper for trayed and trayless products delivering up to 45 packs per minute.

• Tray Wrappers – Tray wrapping systems that support wrap-around tray forming, continuous motion wrapping, and integrated tray packaging applications.
