Film Making

Film-making machines, also known as film extruders, produce thin continuous sheets or films, typically made from plastic. These films serve diverse applications in packaging, electronics, agriculture, and more.

PET FILM

PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) film-making machines are specialized equipment used to produce high-quality PET films, which are used in various applications such as packaging, electronics, and labeling. The process typically involves extrusion, cooling, and winding.

Brands- Bruckner, Donear

BOPP FILM

BOPP (Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene) film-making machines produce BOPP films, which are widely used in packaging, labeling, and various other applications due to their excellent clarity, strength, and barrier properties. The process involves several stages, including extrusion, biaxial orientation, and winding.

LAMINATION

Lamination in packaging is a process where multiple layers of materials are bonded together to create a single composite structure. This enhances the properties of the packaging material, such as its strength, barrier properties, or appearance. Lamination is commonly used to improve durability, protect against moisture, enhance visual appeal, and extend shelf life.

SITTERS

It seems like you might be referring to "slitters" in the context of packaging machinery. Slitters are used to cut large rolls of material, such as paper, film, or foil, into narrower rolls or sheets. This process is crucial for producing packaging materials in the specific widths and dimensions required for various applications.

POUCHING

The pouching process in packaging machinery involves converting flexible packaging materials into pouches or bags used for a variety of products, from food and beverages to pharmaceuticals and consumer goods. Pouching machines are designed to efficiently form, fill, and seal pouches in a streamlined, automated manner.

VACUM METALIZER

Vacuum metallization is a process used in packaging to apply a thin layer of metal, typically aluminum, onto various substrates. This process enhances the appearance, barrier properties, and functionality of packaging materials. It's widely used in creating reflective and protective surfaces on films for food packaging, decorative items, and more.
