The new high-speed vertical form-fill-seal machine is the perfect solution for bagging candy and snacks. Visit us at ProSweets in Hall 10.1, Booth G-061 and inspect our newest addition!  

The compact and easy to service GEA SmartPacker CX250-S  is appearing at the Cologne event. The new machine offers:

• packing up to 250 bags/minute
• high seal force for gas-tight pillow bags, using a wide range of film materials
• low drop for fast, compact filling
• high output per square meter of floor space

Specially created with the needs of wholesalers and retailers in mind, the option OverlapSeal has been developed for this wrapping machine. The GEA Aquarius TwistWrapper is a hermetically sealed twist wrap style that considerably extends the shelf life of the lollipop, particularly in areas with high atmospheric humidity, while the machine achieves its high speed through smooth film handling, precise cutting and automatic feeding. With the tear slit, the OverlapSeal double-twist is extremely easy to open. 

Over and above that machine is using less wrapping film during production in comparison to other wrapping techniques. The standard TwistWrapper 600 with OverlapSeal handles lollipop diameters from 18 to 30 mm and accommodates film reels up to 420 mm in diameter. The minimum wrapping speed is determined to 600 lollipops per minute.

Peace of mind with unique design, high tech composite materials, simpler maintenance, lower operation costs and increased reliability – that’s GEA Shoulders. 

The new standard forming set is delivered as a  fiberglass-reinforced version with an insert, ensuring lower wear rates and leading to a 10 times longer life time as compared to stainless steel shoulders. 

The insert allows for producing both overlaps and tucked seams with one and the same shoulder. In addition each forming set is equipped with a rigidized surface to ensure smooth running in a moist/wet environment.
