During Interpack, May 4-10, 2017, in Hall 14 at Stand E31, the Pro Mach Flexible Packaging Group will introduce its up to 180-bag-per-minute Matrix Morpheus vf/f/s machine and a 150-bag-per-minute vf/f/s Matrix Apollo. The company will also showcase the operating and versatility advantages of FLtècnics horizontal form/fill/seal (hf/f/s) pouch machines.
Both the Morpheus and Apollo feature a small footprint to conserve floor space, high speed for greater throughput, Beckhoff PC-based architecture for high-speed motion control, and PackML compatibility for fast start up and ease of operation. Using the latest technology, which slashes the cost of servo motion, Matrix incorporates its proprietary AutoPro servo-controlled axis adjustment technology as a standard feature on the Morpheus and as an option on the Apollo. AutoPro helps to reduce changeover time compared to similar machines by at least 50 percent.
