Shemesh Automation Wet Wipes (SAW), a global leader in nonwovens downstream packaging, will once again change the landscape of round wipes packaging when it showcases, amongst other new innovations, the world’s fastest wipes loading machine – SAS250 – at Anex18 (Stand 110).
Already sold to a major wet wipes manufacturer, the SAS250 is the world’s fastest vertical round wipes
canisters stuffer, reinventing operations and efficiency.
The SAS250 operates at twice the speed of its revolutionary sister machine, the SAS120. Concisely, its main advantages are:
- Methodology. Vertical chute and a main servo-driven rotary turret
Tolerance. Rolls diameter may be bigger by up to 3mm then the canister opening, a BIG plus!
Synergy. Compatible with all our downstream portfolio and offered converting machines
Setups, operation & maintenance. Sub 30 minutes changeover downtime. Easy to operate & maintain
Speed. Up to 250ppm throughput. Proven operation with connection to multiple converting machines
Video demonstrations of the SAS250 in action will be available at Anex 18 (Stand 110).
