Downgauge your packaging film
for compression multipacking
All of Qubiqa’s multipack and bundler machines now come standard with the proprietary FlexWeld welding mechanism, which was created mainly for MDO film.
With more than 70 FlexWeld welding systems currently in use globally in the insulation business, the FlexWeld has a strong track record. Many of our customers are looking for ways to reduce material use and optimize their packaging processes.
There are several machine types and applications where the FlexWeld welding technology may be employed. The examples beside demonstrate a vertical application with two Servo-drives, allowing the welding position to be adjusted in accordance with the package height.
How it works
The plastic film sealing (weld) is always the weakest point in a multipack. To obtain strong welds in MDO film when producing multipacks under compression, it is necessary to control the tensioning in the film during the sealing process.
Qubiqa developed a welding bar that gives strong welds in MDO film when compression multipacks. Qubiqa’s welding technology developed for strong welds in MDO film used for compression multipacking. – we call it the FlexWeld
Q&A
Non-Qubiqa Multipack machines
Qubiqa and non-Qubiqa Multipack machines with conventional welding systems can be upgraded to FlexWeld systems.
Investment pay-back time for the FlexWeld
The FlexWeld upgrade can reduce film consumption and associated packaging costs, depending on the application and film configuration.
Film types
The FlewWeld system can work with various film kinds and thicknesses, making it incredibly flexible.
Efficient use of packaging film
Because MDO film is pre-stretched, it can help maintain the dimensions of bundles and multipacks over time compared with conventional PE film.
MDO films are also available on the market with recycled content. For example:
