Throughfeed machines

Maximum flexibility despite high dust loads and fast throughput speed

To be profitable, moulding or gluing machines must be able to process a wide variety of formats flexibly and reliably. 3D energy supply systems or fail-safe chainflex cables specially developed for use in motion are the right solution here. Format adjustment is quick and easy with dust-resistant linear guides, plain and ball bearings that function without external lubrication or maintenance
