Horizontal Flow Wrapping
For compatible individual products and shaped items that can be continuously transported through a horizontal film wrapping and sealing process.
Horizontal packaging solutions for continuous film wrapping and sealing of compatible solid and shaped products. Choose equipment according to product dimensions, film specifications, package format, target output and feeding method.
Select the packaging method according to the product format and required packaging process.
For compatible individual products and shaped items that can be continuously transported through a horizontal film wrapping and sealing process.
For applications where flexible film is formed around the product and sealed during a continuous horizontal packaging process.
For production applications requiring conveyors, product positioning or connection with upstream and downstream packaging equipment.
The practical details that determine a suitable horizontal packing configuration.
Actual suitability depends on product dimensions, film properties and the required package format.
Compatible biscuits, bread, confectionery and other shaped food products.
Compatible solid consumer products that require film wrapping and sealing.
Compatible parts, components and other shaped products requiring protective or retail packaging.
Key questions before selecting horizontal film packaging equipment.
A horizontal packing machine transports products horizontally and wraps or seals them with flexible film. Horizontal flow wrapping and HFFS are common configurations.
Horizontal systems generally move shaped products along a conveyor through a film wrapping and sealing process, while vertical form-fill-seal systems form bags vertically and are commonly used for products that can be dosed downward.
Start with product dimensions and shape, film material and width, package format, target output and feeding method. Product samples or application photos are useful for confirming suitability.
Suitable configurations can be connected with feeding conveyors and other upstream or downstream equipment when product transfer, machine speed and layout are compatible.
Provide product length, width and height, product weight, film specification, desired package format, target output and feeding method.
Share your product dimensions, film specification, package format, target output and feeding requirements. Our engineers can recommend a suitable horizontal packaging configuration.
