Overwrapping solution for medium size display boxes
Streamline your packaging line with high-speed, continuous overwrapping for medium-sized display boxes, ensuring seamless packing and sealing operations for a variety of confectionery and snack products.

The FTO518 from IMA Group is a high-speed overwrapping machine designed specifically for the food and confectionery industries. It efficiently wraps medium-sized boxes and multipacks in configurations such as side-by-side or multilayer, greatly improving packaging speed and uniformity. Utilizing a continuous discharge system, the FTO518 minimizes product collision during sealing. This machine processes all heat-sealable films including PP, PVC, and Cellophane, accommodating reel widths up to 300 mm. With an output exceeding 80 products per minute and a shared bus for optimized energy consumption, it reduces power waste while maintaining high efficiency. Additionally, the FTO518 offers ease of integration with existing production lines, thanks to its automation features like a tear-tape unit, double reel holder, and automatic film splicing. This combination makes it an ideal choice for enhancing the packaging of chocolate bars, candy, and other confectionery products.
