KMS600
MEAF's KMS600 is our high capacity thermoforming machine, designed for companies that require higher-level capacity, with three row moulds.
The MEAF thermoforming technology is the result of years development work keeping the customer’s specific needs in mind. The air and plug-assisted forming enables very accurate control of the wall thickness. The precise adjustment of the timing of air, stroke and plug-assist determines the way the softened plastic is deep-drawn and how the wall thickness distribution around the sides, ribs, contours and the base allows a final, stable product.
KMS600 highlights:
- Compact design with a rigid, heavy duty forming station
- Tilting mould technology, operated by servo motors
- Plug assist driven by servo motor – Quick and accurate
- Automated lubrication system – lesser maintenance
- Can be made compatible with certain moulds from different manufacturers (ask us about this!)
- User and operator friendly operating system “Thermosol”
The sheet transport is servo-motor driven for accurate transport over chain bars and cause the absolute minimum of skeletal waste. The individually operated heating zones in the top and bottom heating stations allow very precise control of along the length and width of the sheet. The twin cam system allow for positive mould clamping, precise cutting tolerances and fast mould changes with minimal adjusting points.
