PW-150

 

MACHINE DESCRIPTION

The Model PW-150 Bar Soap Pleat Wrapper is designed to wrap with tissue paper, plastic or cellophane up to 150 round banded soaps.

INFEED

The stamped soaps are fed onto two parallel 1225 mm long and 80 mm wide and intermittent motion, flat belt conveyors. Each conveyor feeds a fully independent pleating head with separate wrapping material feeding system.

PLEATING

The roll fed pleat wrapping material is cut into octagonal shape and placed under the soaps. Excess wrapping materials are discharged into a container with a vacuum system.
The soaps and the wrapping material are lowered together into a pleating head assembly, which forms 24 pleats around the soap.
The basic machine is supplied with a pleating head designed for paper wrapping materials.
For plastic type materials a special pleating head is required.

LABELING AND DISCHARGE

The folded pleats are kept in position by a mechanical controlled iris.
The pleating head, with the pleat wrapped soap inside, moves to the labelling station, where an automatic labelling group applies roll fed self-adhesive labels.
The pleat wrapped and labelled soap is discharged onto two independently driven conveyors.
To vary the height of products, having the equal diameter, it requires a different width of the wrapping material
