GEA PowerPak NT
The GEA PowerPak NT is equipped to run all commercially
available web combinations forthermoforming operations, incl.
speciality materials such as Auminum foil. The maximum indexof 800
mm can be utilized with all webs, heating and forming system
combinations! With achoice of heating and forming systems, various
cross cutting and longitudinal cutting devicesand an optional
machine extension for a top and bottom web labeler, the GEA
PowerPak NTlends itself to the production of widely used vacuum and
MAP pack styles. The modular frameadapts to changing requirements
in future: Functional modules can be added or taken off on
site.Advanced options do include top web forming stations for
reclosable packs, various styles ofcomplete cut devices for unique
pack shapes, and different set-ups for quick pack size changesincl.
twin die set concepts. The unique photocell with film brake design
for printed top webs isextremely easy to set, minimizing film waste
when changing top webs. The optional swivelfunction for top die
parts enures a quick and easy access to the die interior for
adjustments,checks and configuration changes.

Working principleA powerful transport chain is securely gripping
the bottom web at the infeed drum. A precision servo motor indexes
the web throughthe machine process. The index length is
programmable on the HMI and stored as recipe parameter. The loading
area is accessiblefrom both sides for multiple operators. Powerful
GEA Membrane seal system for reliable seals and constant peel
forces. Knee leverpunches for semi rigid bottom web, with central
adjustment of cutting forces. Optional Strip punches for smoothly
rounded packcorners, or radiused pack sides (All cross punches
alternatively with servo drive). Guillotine cross cut knives for
flexible bottomweb,optional tear notch cutting. Choice of
longitudinal cutting systems withoptional strip cutting for
superior pack quality. Forincreased running time with long indexes,
jumbo unwinds for top and bottom web can be utilized.

PerformanceThe robust machine frame, latest control and drive
technology are the basis for secure production. The GEA membrane
seal headensures tight and even seals, with only a minimum of
maintenance required. A choice of vacuum pumps is available, with
externalplacement of larger pumps. Built to perform in 24/7
production environments, with minimum maintenance demands.

Output qualityChoice of Heating and Forming systems to run a
variety of bottom web types. Optional OptiForm plugs for even web
distribution indeeper trays. GEA Membrane seal system guarantees
high seal forces with even distribution over the whole sealing
surface, forconsistent results with peelable webs and reliably
tight seals. Optional lifting die tops to prevent heat impact on
sensitive films orproducts during machine stops.

FlexibilityThe GEA PowerPak NT utilizes a modular machine frame
concept. The machine can be adapted to changing requirements in
future. -Loading area extension for integration into packaging
lines with automated loading; - Labeling extension for installation
of top andbottom web labeler; - Choice of Cutting systems to handle
a huge variety of film types; - TopForm option. A wide range of
differentquick die change options allow for an individual setup to
minimize tool change down times in different production setups.

Unique function for fast adaptation to changing printmark
distances
Choice of air, vacuum or MAP packs or uniquecardboard/plastic
combinations
ReliabilityThe GEA PowerPak NT is built to endure 24/7
production environments with minimized scheduled maintenance
demands.Deliberately oversized structural components in the machine
frame and lifting systems ensure years of operational life under
hugemechanical load conditions. Main components from leading
specialized suppliers are used throughout the machine, ensuring
theusage state-of-the-art technolgy in performance-critical
areas.

Hinged sidesheets remain on the machine during cleaning and
sanitation, while still allowing easy access to all interior
structures for thoroughcleaning. Special maintenance- free bearings
in the lifting system run without needing grease on the shafts.
