PFM Compact for Frozen Asparagus

PFM has supplied the COMPACT – a horizontal wrapping machine that operates like an intermittent vertical form fill seal machine – to a renowned Italian agricultural cooperative which sells frozen vegetables, tomato purees and sauces, fruit juices and syrups wholesale and to end users.

The requirements was to wrap the asparagus in a tight pack format with all the tips facing the same direction whilst maintain control of the product and prevent slippage during the wrapping process as can happen with traditional horizontal wrapping machines.

With this PFM Compact line PFM achieved all the customer’s requirements: tight pack, product quality maintained, high line performance without stoppages, quick format change over, hygienic system construction to speed up the cleaning process and high speed wrapping.
