The Technology
Slitting of the tamper evident bands on closures is a lower cost alternative to forming the bridges in the molding tool. Besides the advantages of cost, speed, repeatability and reduced maintenance costs, it allows the design of more sophisticated tamper evident bands since the material does not need to be pressed through the narrow bridges to form the rest of the band. Close control of torque required to open closures results in higher quality product delivery. Our slitting machines combine these advantages with Swiss quality and innovation.
Furthermore, the MSM slitting machines provide the option to process output of multiple injection molds on one folding/slitting machine (same design/different color). This produces higher efficiency on less floor space and lower investment costs. Integration of a sophisticated color control camera system avoids cross contamination of colored closures produced.
