Entry-level tray former

THE TF-100 tray former from IPak Machinery, powered by Pro Mach, is designed for four-corner trays where no rollover or one-piece lidding is required. The model has a 7-inch widescreen, touchscreen to monitor functions including glue pattern adjustments, machine speeds and timing, and troubleshooting. It has an independently controlled, self-cleaning vacuum pick system and programmable electric drive with innovative Variable Feed Drive blank feed.

Proprietary passive compression technology assures precise flap bonding. A Nordson ProBlue 7 two-hose two-head glue system delivers hours of continuous operation before refilling. Changeovers can be completed without tools in less than 10 minutes with a standard, color-coded two-crank system. A vertical hopper maximizes tray capacity between filling.

Applications include craft beer, food processing, pharmaceuticals, snacks, hygiene products, as well as most products in plastic containers, cans, or bottles that fit into standard trays.
