Overview

This SMI TF350 is a tray packing machine for PET bottles, built in 2009 by SMI (Italy). It forms cardboard trays from flat blanks and packs PET bottles at an output of 45 to 50 packs per minute. Tray forming is carried out with an integrated Nordson ProBlue 4 hot-melt adhesive unit.

The machine is fully enclosed by a safety guard with large viewing panels and hinged access doors, and is operated from a control cabinet mounted on the machine frame. It has been running as the tray 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.
