Packaging solution for biscuits in Doypack and cardboard display box

This automatic biscuit packaging line consists of:

• IMA Ilapak LUX DC High speed HFFS Doypack machine with a unique dual motion system composed of an intermittent module for pouch forming and a continuous module for product filling.
• IMA Ciemme WA series case packers, capable of packing a variety of products into one-piece wrap-around or two-piece display box (tray + lid) cartons.

LUX DC Stand-up Doypack machine:

The LUX DC 235 -150/8 has been designed to form flat film roll stock into high quality stand-up Doypack with fully integrated filling solutions for small biscuits, filled biscuits, sandwich biscuits and snack biscuits. Given its versatility, the LUX machine is suitable for a wide number of bag dimensions and filling volumes, as well as the possibility to equip the Doy pouches with re-closable zipper, shaped round corners, easy open tear notch and hole punch.

WA series case packer:

The case packer machine is fitted out with a double infeed system to receive both Doypack and bags arriving from two different upstream equipment. Pre-packed products are fed separately (Doypack) or grouped (bags) to a vertical track collation system which receives the products flat and transports them standing thanks to the infeed and pockets design. Once extracted from the collation unit, the grouping is positioned on the tray blank (or wrap-around); the carton is folded around the entire grouping and secured with hot melt glue. A dedicated modular unit provides to fold the lid over the grouping and close it with hot melt glue (display-box).
