Their range of Compact Modular Thermoformers have been designed to have only 10mm lateral scrap and only on the bottom film.

Sep 12 2011 --- Colimatic, of Chiari Italy, a leading manufacturer of thermoforming, sealing and vacuum packaging equipment have designed their thermoforming machinery to create minimal lateral film trim wastage, saving manufactures up to 75% on lateral film trim wastage.

Their range of Compact Modular Thermoformers have been designed to have only 10mm lateral scrap and only on the bottom film. Other thermoforming machines available in the market typically have a lateral scrap of 20mm on the top and the bottom.

These compact modular units can handle a wide range of pack sizes and shapes with output speeds of up to 28 cycles per minute. The machines have patented technologies such as :-

* A gas jet (MAP system) that prolongs the product’s shelf-life.
* The variable size machine, which allows mould changes simply by pressing a button.
* An Integral cutting system, which is able to cut any kind of previously thermoformed shape.
