Project Brief

Horizontal Pillow Flow Wrapping Machines (HFFS) for Confectionery

Compare 3-servo rotary-jaw (100–800 PPM) and box-motion (20–200 PPM) horizontal pillow flow wrappers for individual candies, chocolate bars, and wafers.

Hermetic Three-Servo Pillow Packs From Individual Drops to Bars

Horizontal flow wrappers (HFFS) form a continuous film tube around horizontally spaced confections, seal the bottom fin seam, and crimp both ends for an air-tight pillow pack. Within candy wrapping machines, dive into rotary high-speed pillow candy wrappers and box-motion vs rotary-jaw flow wrappers.

Three independent servo axes (infeed lug/belt, fin-seal rollers, and end-crimper jaws) store bag length (80–300 mm+), cut position, and speed on the touchscreen for 15-minute SKU changeovers.

Five-stage single-piece candy disc sorting, smart phasing, eye-mark registration, and wrapping sequence
At 200–800 pieces per minute, gentle feed-disc pocket capture and no-product-no-film servo standby determine net shift yield.

3-Servo Confectionery Flow Wrapper Series

Match film web width and jaw configuration to piece size and speed:

Flow Wrapper Model Class Max Film Web Product Height Max Published Speed Typical Confectionery Pack
Mini Candy Pillow HFFS (250) 250 mm 25–35 mm 200–800 packs/min Individual hard drops, mints, mini chocolates
Standard 350 Servo (Heat/Cold) 350 mm 60–80 mm 60–250 packs/min Countline chocolate bars, nougat, flat lollipops
Wide 450 Gusset / Tray HFFS 450 mm 80–100 mm 50–150 packs/min Multi-piece candy trays, wafer multipacks
Box-Motion Hermetic 450/590 450–590 mm 90–110 mm 20–200 packs/min MAP gas-flushed soft bakery/confectionery bars

Compare twisted non-hermetic wraps on twist and fold candy wrappers.

Cold-seal cohesive pressure bonding versus thermal heat-seal jaws on chocolate confectionery lines
Switching chocolate bars to pattern-applied cold-seal film eliminates chill plates, thermal scorch on stops, and heat-transfer dwell limits.

High-Speed Wrapping Engineering Notes

  • Bottom-Reel Inverted Option: Soft sticky chews, marshmallow bars, and multi-piece clusters without trays use inverted bottom-film-unwind frames that carry product directly on the film web instead of pushing with chain lugs.
  • Zig-Zag Easy-Tear Knives: Notched crimper anvils cut crisp V-notches into pillow end seals so consumers tear packs open effortlessly.
  • Water-Chilled Bed Plates: When heat-sealing coated bars, chilled stainless deck plates insulate the chocolate bottom from fin-wheel radiant heat.

Confirm Product L × W × H & Sticky Base Behavior

Measure exact piece length, width, height, and bottom tackiness to choose between lug-chain and inverted belt-on-film feeding.

Throughput comparison across composite fold, box-motion flow-wrap, double-twist, and rotary-jaw pillow wrappers
Rotary continuous-motion mechanisms outpace intermittent reciprocating jaws whenever piece geometry and film twist memory allow.
