https://korean-machinery.com///inquiry

Vacuum Skin Packaging Machines

Established in 1999, PACKSIS Co., Ltd. is a manufacturer of disposable food container packaging machines. From the MA1, the most sold manual-packaging machine model in Korea, to the vacuum skin packaging machine model 400K, it has been steadily researching and developing new products.
Vacuum skin packaging machines manufactured by PACKSIS have reasonable prices and convenient specifications. In particular, the two representative models – 400K and 500K – do not require installation of a compressor, thereby maximizing space efficiency and user convenience.

Compact automatic model (400K)
The 400K is a compact automatic model with a size of a standard water purifier and is good for use in stores such as butcher shops. As the power is single-phase, it can be used immediately by plugging the cord into the outlet, and in particular, it does not require installation of a compressor, so consumers can use it conveniently.

Mass-production possible model (500K)
The 500K has a similar size to normal refrigerators, so it does not take up much space. Compared to the 400, which can only be used with one container tray, it can be used with two container trays, thus enabling mass-production. It adopts a rotary method that works manually, and like the 400K, there is no need to install a compressor, which enhances consumer convenience.

Image sensor weighing packaging machine (400W)
The 400W is an image sensor weighing packaging machine that automatically weighs and enables the automatic printing of label stickers by automatically recognizing the contents of the package. Thereafter, the packaging worker attaches the sticker to the container to complete the process.
There are also two competitive models – the 600K, and the 650K. Suitable for food factories, the 600K is a mid-sized model, ensuring cheaper prices than products of other companies. The 650K is a rotary-type larger model that enables mass-production, thus ensuring lower prices than products of other companies.
The president of the company remarked, “We will continue to develop technology and become a company that satisfies our customers.”

[INQ. NO. 2404M05] As one of the leading manufacturers and exporters in the paper cup machine field in Korea, since 1985, Future Pack Co., Ltd. has been manufacturing various kinds of packaging-related machinery such as paper cup machines, handle cup machines, paper cup sleeve (two-layer coffee, cotton & plastic cup) machines, blank punching machines, printing & punching machines, blank offset printing machines, paper plate (tray) machines, and food packaging box machines.
Future Pack has so far exported more than 900 types of forming machines to customers around the world, and thus emerged as a leader in this industry in Korea.

Two types of double wall forming machines
The double wall forming machine (double cup machine) is a machine that produces double cups by adding one layer of paper to the outer surface of ordinary paper cups.
Future Pack’s double wall forming machines come in two types, according to the cup size: FPP-275A, which produces small cups from 8oz to 16oz; and FPP-275C, which produces large cups from 18oz to 32oz. The two machines have almost the same specifications, but there is a difference in the speed of paper cup production. The FPP-275A produces up to 55 per minute, while the FPP-275C produces up to 50 per minute.
Above all, the biggest advantage of double wall forming machines is that they can produce double cups using not only 1PE (polyethylene coated on one side), and 2PE (polyethylene coated on both sides) paper, but also PLA or water-based, plastic-free coating. Moreover, it is an environmentally friendly product that helps solve recycling-related issues.

Each air column of the product is designed as an independent structure. So even if one column pops, the other columns are not affected. The curved bottom of the product provides a great cushioning effect for wine bottles, safeguarding even if the wine box falls during shipping or if a wine bottle falls vertically. There is enough space between each wine bottle so that there is no risk of the wine bottles collapsing and getting broken.
A user at a customer company remarked, “It’s been five years since I’ve been using G-Polpack. Compared to the times when we were using bubble wraps or foam covers, the risk rate of damage has now dropped from 30% to 5%. Also, since I had to pay thorough and closer attention to packaging, it took quite a lot of time. Now with G-Polpack, the process has become much simpler and time-efficiency greatly improved.”
G-Polpack received ‘Green Certification’ for reducing waste in 2014. G-Polpack is an eco-friendly packaging material used as a packaging material for agricultural / marine / livestock foods which is free from hazardous materials regulations.

“With the largest facility in Korea and the best quality in the industry, we aim to lead the air pack packaging industry and become a global leader. We will continue to innovate and improve our products to meet the needs of customers,” noted the company’s CEO.
