Solaris EVO Benefits
- Increased production speed: a series of technical features including the double reel-holder shaft with easy film splice, the Doy-style sealing unit with complete replacement of the forming assembly and the two-way film transport system have drastically reduced the time needed for format change.
- Aesthetically nicer bag: the continuous control of film tension, film centering and edge alignment, together with even distribution of film pull force guarantee perfect pack aesthetics and seal integrity.
- Increased production speed: the machine reaches speeds up to 150 pillow-bags per minute, 100 Doy-style and 100 Steelo-bags per minute.
