Horizontal
Packaging Machinery
The range of horizontal PFM flowrappers is specifically designed to meet any need of flexible packaging for food and non-food applications.
Horizontal flow wrap transverse sealing systems: technical differences and selection criteria
PFM horizontal flow wrappers use three distinct transverse (end seal) sealing systems, each engineered for specific production requirements: line speed, film type, and product characteristics.
Rotary end seal
High-speed continuous motion
Rotary jaws operate in continuous motion without stopping the film web. Suited for high-speed lines using standard heat-sealable films. Delivers consistent sealing performance on regular, uniform products while maximizing throughput.
Long Dwell and Box Motion end seal
Extended dwell time for hermetic seals
Long Dwell increases jaw-to-film contact time during transverse sealing while maintaining line speed. The preferred system for high-barrier films, multilayer laminates, or materials requiring longer heat transfer to achieve hermetic seals. Box Motion replicates the product’s forward motion during sealing, eliminating mechanical stress on the package: ideal for fragile, irregular, or height-variable products.
Special applications
Functional packaging and distinctive pack formats
Systems engineered beyond standard pillow-pack flow wrapping: structural formats, reclosable packs, MAP (Modified Atmosphere Packaging) configurations, or sector-specific solutions for dairy, bakery, and fresh food. Packaging becomes integral to product functionality and shelf differentiation.
