Pleating & Folding: PTF-240-A
The PTF-240-A is a fully automated machine and can pleat and fold balloons with a maximum length of 230 mm. The balloon products are clamped on a stable product table with automatic positioning using stepper motors.
Product Details
Key Features
- 10 in color touch panel interface with parameter setting and recipe control.
- Servo-controlled zero gap fold head with stainless tool steel blades and high-wear resistant low friction coating.
- Innovative design for quickly exchanging the pleater setup from 3-, 4-, 5-, or 6-pleats.
- The PTF-240-A is built with a very high-quality benchmark resulting in a stable and robust design with minimal cost of ownership.
- Easy-to-use user interface software with recipe control. Barcode scanners support as standard.
- Fold head heating is standard. Optionally, the pleater modules can be fitted with a heating system.
- The design is optimized for use in cleanrooms and can be very easily wiped and cleaned due to the smooth and closed surfaces.
