Packaging Tip
Converting to Pressure
Sensitive Tape:
Are your case sealers still running
with glue, staples or water-activated tape? Stop! If the hot liquid
reservoirs, clogged applicators and belts, leaky catch pans and
staple damage don’t kill you, the downtime will. Fortunately, 3M
Packaging Systems makes a great taping head conversion system called AccuGlide™
that can easily convert most existing equipment to pressure-sensitive
tape. You can keep your existing equipment and still save on cleanup,
maintenance and material cost (not to mention hazmat disposal).

Standard Features on Wexxar Machines
-
- Pin & Dome: As flat case blank is injected into the two facing plates, the pins goes into the flutes and the dome pinches the corrugated tightly. The two plates then open to 90 degrees to perfectly square the case. Since no compressed air is used in this process, it greatly decreases contamination and is more durable than vacuum cups which can clog and wear.
- Safety & Ergonomic Features: Floor level tending reduces strain; every machine Wexxar builds is fully guarded from in-feed to out-feed, interlocked safety guarding throughout the machine; easily accessed control and assemblies; palm e-switches located on both sides.
- Dynamic Flap Folding: Wexxar case formers have a dynamic flap folding system. As long plow rails aren't used, the overall length of the machine is significantly more compact. All four of the flaps are power folded in one position.
- Compliant Drive Belt: Each of the two facing unidrive drive belts is mounted on a spring mechanism. This allows a constant pressure to be exerted on the case, despite normal variations in case width. Even heavy cases are handled carefully and with great control.
- Servo Motion Control: Where a movement can be fast, the mechanism quickly gets to a specific position. It can then slow down to ensure a process takes place with the optimum pressure and speed, such as the opening the blank case.
- Non-Contacting Sensors: Proximity sensors are able to have a much greater operating lifetime and don't cause jams than contacting sensors.
- In-Line Operation: By keeping the intake and outflow of the machine in line with the rest of the line, aisles are kept free, safety is improved and space is saved.
- Simplicity of Construction: By planning through each step in the construction of the machine and its materials, Wexxar is able to greatly reduce potential problems.
- Small Footprint: Compact operations allows Wexxar's machine to fit into virtually any application and production line.
- Integrated Controls: Connecting each machine in the full production line through common equipment and protocols reduces complexity and problems while increasing overall control.
- Feed Magazine: Wexxar's extraordinarily large feed magazine option allows much longer operating periods without restocking and supervision
- Washdown Configuration: EnviroGuard I and II Level One - lower parts of the machine protected against incidental splashing from caustic agents. Level Two - machine protected against direct washdown with non-corrosive cleaning agents and protected against incidental splashing from caustic detergents. Call for list of parts and protection methods.
- Tagout/Lockout: When a machine is locked out, it cannot be operated until all the safety features are in place.
- Paint-Free Construction: No paint: no contaminating flakes, no extra maintenance required.
- UL-Listed Electrical Panels: Wexxar meets or exceeds all standards, requirements and specifications
- NEMA Electrical Specifications: Wexxar meets or exceeds all standards, requirements and specifications
- Regional Service Available: Through Wexxar's operating partnership with 10 other Pro Mach companies, there are factory trained service specialists available across North America.
