delivering a performance advantage over
the previous flow wrapper thanks to its
ability to self-adjust to pre-programmed
products.
The Smart is capable of producing pillow packs and gusset packs from hot and cold
seal films of up to 50 micron in thickness, making it an ideal choice for craft bakeries
and fresh produce lines
“With the old machine, every time we
changed product, we had to re-enter all
the measurements and parameters. The
machine didn’t store them within its
memory. The Smart has reduced set-up
and changeover time considerably, as it
stores product settings in its memory.
Changing to a different product simply
involves selecting that product via the
touchscreen, and the flow wrapper will
automatically adjust its settings to the
required temperature, product length etc.
All the operator has to do is to adapt the
folding box to the required width. This is
far quicker and saves us lots of valuable
time,” says David.
The Smart is different to other
horizontal machines in its class in that it
incorporates design features that would
usually only be found on a £60,000 flow
wrapper, on a machine that costs half
that. Cantilevered hygienic design, ABB
electronics, colour touchscreen, and no-
product no-bag and misplaced product
functions are all part of the package.
The Smart is capable of producing
pillow packs and gusset packs from hot
and cold seal films of up to 50 micron
in thickness, making it an ideal choice
for craft bakeries and fresh produce
lines requiring a stand-alone machine.
ILAPAK always keeps a small number of
Smart flow wrappers in stock to enable
it to respond quickly to situations like
Scotbake’s.
“I can’t compliment ILAPAK highly
enough. They got us out of a hole and
pulled all the stops out to get the new
flow wrapper to us as quickly as possible.
Even though it was a ‘distress’ purchase,
we’re delighted with the versatility and
programming capabilities of the new
flow wrapper. The Smart does everything
the previous machine did – and more,”
says David.

temperature
