Ulma shows FFS kit at PPMA

The Everest continuous motion vertical form, fill and seal (VFFS) flow-wrapper with integrated multi-head weigher is making its first UK appearance, along with the Sienna fully automatic, inverted horizontal form, fill and seal (HFFS) machine.

The Everest is designed to handle liquids, pastes, powders, granulated foods, snacks and frozen vegetables, while the Sienna is for fresh produce, cheese and meat.

Worksop-based Ulma said the Sienna wraps up to 70 packs a minute and features a new electronic platform powered by independent servo motors controlling the 400mm wide box motion cross sealing jaw, film feed and 2m in-feed conveyor.

The machine is built on a stainless steel frame with a cantilever construction providing easy access to mechanical and electrical components. It also has a touch screen control panel.

Other machines on display include the entry level Florida HFFS flow wrapper, Taurus 300 tray sealer and TP Supra thermoformer for foodservice packs of meat products.

Ulma Packaging was established in Onati, Spain more than 50 years ago, and now has subsidiaries in 14 countries worldwide.

Ulma Packaging is on stand C20 at the NEC. The PPMA show runs from 30 September to 2 October.
