What are the main strengths of the CM R ERGON range? The new packer stands out for its innovative fast format changeover system, called revolving, which enables to automatically switch from packaging in film only to tray+film or to wrap-around case without any manual intervention for the replacement of components or adjustment of machine devices. Everything, in fact, is carried out by means of the selection of parameters from the operator panel.
What lies behind the development of the new CM R ERGON? The idea to develop the new revolving system was related to the need to ensure very easy, fast, precise and repeatable format changeover operations and to offer an extremely innovative solution to all those companies that have to make frequent switches and pack several products or realize different types of packing.
		What is the revolving format changeover? It is composed of two rotary modules: the first positioned in the cardboard/loose product advance area (Rotary module 1) and the second positioned in the area of box/tray formation and loose product flow (Rotary module 2). The two rotary modules are fitted with double equipment, and the rotation by 180 degrees of a single or both modules allows to obtain different pack combinations by means of the CM R combined packer.

MAIN ADVANTAGES no mechanical adjustments are required for the machine reconfiguration tooling operations are easy and fast format changeover, totally automated, is fast, repeatable and precise format changeover times are drastically reduced higher precision, as rotary modules have already been fitted with the equipment for the various processes greater efficiency in the production plants that require frequent switches reduction in the number of rejects and in machine downtime low maintenance and installation costs mistakes by the operator can be eliminated, as the adjustments to be performed are set within the machine control system
