| High speed forming, cutting and wrapping machine
for hard and soft caramels, toffees, chewy sweets,
chewing gum and bubble-gum products in fold wrap (single point
underfold) or double-point
end fold. The U1-D-CW is a special version of the
THEEGARTEN-PACTEC U1 where the cutting, folding and sealing
units are provided in a twin execution. Thus, two pieces are cut
simultaneously by means of a double guillotine knife -
water-cooled and
with intermittent rope feed - wrapped in a twin-mould-wheel
and sealed in twin-lane discharge. by this method an output of
1600 pieces is achieved with a mechanical speed of 800 rpm. The
machine is equipped with a prefeeder and an automatic splicer to
change wrapping material reels without stopping the machine (for one wrapping
material). The wrapping material is fed continuously from a
reel of double width, the web is split at the centre-line by
means of a rotating knife. The wrapper will be automatically
engaged by a rope scanning device. |

the U1-I can be synchronized
either with a batch roller and rope sizing machine
(hard boiled candies
and soft caramels respectively toffees) or an appropriate
extruder and cooling
tunnel (chewing gum and bubble-gum products, chewy
candy).
