Wide range of packaging solutions at Auspack 2009

NEW Tray sealing machines, head load testers and cartoners will be just some of the many products showcased at Auspack 2009, to be held in June.

Proseal Australia will introduce customers to their new subsidiary Proseal Australia which is now is fully operational.

The company will be demonstrating the semi automatic PR30 machine capable of sealing up to 30 trays per minute and a fully automatic in line machine called the GT1 which can seal up to 60 trays per minute.

For the wine industry, SI Instruments will display the new Australian designed and developed instrument, the TehloTest.

The TehloTest is the wireless edition of the long-proven Head Load Tester used in wineries throughout Australia. Measuring the head load of capping machinery is now even easier.

The TehloTest can be wirelessly operated from a distance of up to 30 metres with no wires to be pulled or damaged. It is ideally suited for use in production lines. The solution consists of two parts, 1. the imitation bottle, containing the load cell, and 2. the user interface, containing the control module. The possibilities extend further with EasyPlot graphing software, making it possible to obtain a full graph of the capping force on a computer screen.

PAKSMART will launch the PC120 carton machine at Auspack. The PC120 is a continuous motion horizontal carton machine (Cartoner) that is capable of 120 cycles per minute. This makes it suitable for most moderate production requirements.

The PC120 is available in both automatic load (barrel cam) and hand load models. The hand load version features a loading station that comfortably accommodates 2 operators for high speeds. The automatic version is suitable for higher levels of automation.

Auspack will be held from Tuesday the 16th through to Friday the 19th of June 2009 at the Sydney Showgrounds, Sydney Olympic Park.
