Australian Wrapping Company (AWC) is exhibiting a range of shrink, stretch and flow wrapping systems from its partners on stand D230 at AUSPACK.

The company, which specialises in shrink wrapping, pallet wrapping, flow wrapping, shrink sleeve applicators, and heat sealer packaging equipment, is showing machinery from Smipack, TLM and PKG.

From Smipack comes the HS 500 high-speed shrink wrapping system, which offers side seal operation for optimum production rates and superior shrink appeal finish, says AWC. In addition, the BP 600 AR shrink bundle wrapper system displays its ability to collate and wrap various products for the pharmaceutical and food industries, the company says.

Also on the stand are TLM’s flow wrappers, which range from the Wiki’s compact design to the high-speed box-motion Discovery for various applications. According to AWC, the TLM range is popular with food processors, and accommodates clear and printed films with optional features to complement all products.

Finally, PKG’s pallet wrappers with PR04 wi-fi software are on display, and can be controlled and monitored from desktop and mobile applications, claims AWC. The software can give operators data showing number of pallets wrapped, plus weight and film used for each pallet.
