The Packline is a fresh and newly designed hot melt packing line launched in 2024 for gluing flat collated corrugated packs (FEFCO 402). This finishing process is traditionally carried out by many out-workers using hand-held vinyl packing tape guns but now it will be glued with huge labour savings and takes away plastic from this process. Paper tapes are also used however the glued packs are much stronger and gives greater protection. Packs can be fed of different sizes and thicknesses randomly without the need to change any settings so long as they are within specification. Options include an inkjet print head for pack identification and Lamina 4.0 management information system.
A second smaller format 07.10 Packline has already been ordered and is expected to be installed in early 2025. This is the first 07.10 Packline to be built and will make Delta the first company to own two Lamina Packline’s.
The sale of the 14.20 Packline was handled by Lamina’s UK & Irish Sales Agent Neil Thayer of Finishline Machinery.
