Perforating machine

The PM-Series is the AFS solution for hot or cold needle perforation of plastomers etc. The production of air-permeable food and vegetable packaging can be integrated into any continuous flat film process. Easy operation due to intuitive touch screen display. Emergency release springs during machine standstill reduce the risk of fi re. Precise interruption of the perforating process in transverse direction, thanks to intermittent operation (with PM6). Effective multi-zone needle roller heating. The PM series essentially consists of two parts: the needle roller part (heating part) and the foil guide part with brush and deflection rollers. To insert the film, the film guide part is moved away from the needle roller. The film can be easily inserted. The interlocking of needle and brush roller, i.e. the penetration depth of the needles into the film, can be infinitely adjusted. The plunge depth defines the hole diameter. The horizontal roll displacement does not change the wrapping length of the film when the machine opens Although the perforation process takes place at temperatures of up to 350°C, the energy consumption of the system is pleasingly low. Separate heating and extraction chambers ensure that only the air surrounding the melting area is extracted and the energy loss due to waste heat is thus reduced to a minimum.
