MULTIVAC expands its range with a new entry-level thermoforming packaging machine
MULTIVAC is presenting for the first time at interpack 2014 in Düsseldorf its new R 085 entry-level model for thermoforming packaging. The machine can be used for running both flexible films and rigid films. It is therefore suitable for packing non-food products as well as food.
The new R 085 entry-level model is aimed at those companies in the widest range of sectors, which want to embark on automatic thermoforming packaging. The machine can be ordered with four standard format layouts. It is suitable for packing both sliced products and individual items, and it is able to run rigid as well as flexible films. The R 085 can be used to produce packs with inert gas as well as vacuum packs, so that users can also meet the requirement for extended shelf life for their packaged products. With its thermoforming depth of up to 80 millimetres, the R 085 provides a whole range of possibilities for pack design. Electric drives are used for both the lifting units and the transport chain; this means that the R 085 also fulfils the requirements for improved energy efficiency.
