Horizontal forming shoulder

Application

We also develop horizontal forming shoulders for paper for your special needs.

form of the seal: centered or shifted lap or distant fin seal
infeed of film: from top

Horizontal forming shoulders are applied to the packaging of piece goods. They are also known as folding boxes or flowpack forming shoulders.

Our forming shoulders are suited especially for use in high-speed flowpack packaging machines.

Benefits

  • wrinkle-free forming
  • minimum installation effort

Limits

Due to the infeed of the film from top the piece goods have to be pushed within the forming shoulder. Thus the design of the forming shoulder depends on the geometry of the conveyor and the pitch point of the driving pin.
