SMI SK 450 T Shrink Packer (2009)

Overview

This SMI SK 450 T is a shrink packer for PET bottles, built in 2009 by SMI (Italy). It collates bottles into pack formations, wraps them in shrink film and shrinks the film in the integrated heating tunnel, at an output of up to 45 packs per minute. It handles 0.5 l bottles in 3x3, 0.75 l bottles in 2x3 and 1.5 l bottles in 2x3 formats.

The wrapping section is fully enclosed by safety guarding with viewing windows, and the machine is operated from a machine-mounted touchscreen control panel. It has been running as the shrink packer of a PET bottling line for mineral water and soft drinks, and is still installed and under power, so it can be inspected in production.
