New technology from ATS Branding Solutions has guaranteed gentle, safe and efficient bundling of printed and unprinted products.
By using wide strapping bands and ultrasonic sealing technology, ATS now offers technology that has promised an advantage over conventional methods.
The 100 milimeters wide bands, which can be printed in advance if required, provide a robust shield, protecting the surface and edges of materials such as corrugated cardboard, folding cartons, displays, flyers and banknotes.
This is done using the minimum amount of packaging material and, whenever practical, with paper bands.
Strapping stacks of corrugated cardboard, cardboard or paper with wide bands and ultrasonic sealing technology from ATS offers proven advantages over strapping with conventional PP and PET bands.
These products have minimised waste while simplifying handling.
For applicants requiring very tight and tear-resistant strapping, a 30-millimetre-wide thick craft paper with a TruePaper coating and a 30-millimetre-wide kraft paper with a PP coating are highly suitable for the task at hand.
The combination of tear-proof and ultrasonic sealing technology achieves a high tensile strength. Either paper can withhold 15 kilograms of weight without any issues.
For banding printed products, machines from ATS print bands with dynamic information in advance, such as customer-specific information, for identification, sorting, logistics, quality control, or automation.
Depending on the requirements, ATS banding machines can create environmentally and customer-friendly alternatives for smaller products such as greeting cards or envelopes.
Various machines feature ultrasonic branding technology, including the SPEEDPACK automatic, SPEEDPACK from BOBST, the POWERPACKER from BAHMÜLLER, and the UCB corrugated cardboard strapping machine from MOSCA.
ATS's mobile, space-saving banding machines are designed to be easy to move and can be positioned anywhere, making them ideal for changing workplaces.
Fully automatic banding machines also perform additional functions such as conveying, counting, aligning, pressing and stacking.
