EF600-825
Forming, filling and sealing
EF600 and EF825 are FFS machines with an exceedingly high output, a benchmark in terms of durability. An ample variety of packaging shapes and materials is possible, and - thanks to a wider bottom web - scrap rate is significantly less.

The reliable, heavy duty FFS machine
These are machines to opt for when high outputs are required along with worry-free operation and impressive reliability. EF600 and EF825 handle a wide range of dairy products and can process innovative thermoformed shapes and designs.
Product changeover is quick and easy, and labelling techniques include straight or conical IML as well as in-mould sticker labels.
Cups can be designed cost-effectively with many labelling solutions and freedom of cup geometry. Not only a marketing tool, the label also strengthens the cup’s sidewall stability, enabling a thinner bottom web resulting in higher sustainability.
EF600-825 Highlights
1.
Handles multi-layer PS or PP, PET materials.
2.
Highest output on EF825 version: 4 rows of 12 cups up to 92,000 cups/h.
3.
FDA, 3A and EHEDG-compliant equipment delivered on demand.
