FLEXIBILITY AND CUSTOMISATION

Remote support: a long-standing customer support tradition

The packaging world has been abuzz with news of Industry 4.0 for years, and particularly technologies for line automation and remote assistance. Few companies can boast Microline’s experience in this field. This Emilia-Romagna-based company has always put its customers first and foremost, seeking the best ways to ensure prompt and ongoing support.

Technology corner: product focus, beginning with the feed system

Numerous factors have contributed to the market success of the AL80. This roll packaging unit is an ideal blend of strength and performance. Its packaging material requirements have been cut by using very fine film and a packaging process without any waste trimmings.

Optimised pneumatic systems to limit consumption

Energy loss caused by pneumatic systems is one of the main causes of excess consumption in the automation and packaging sector. Microline has always pursued a policy of economy and sustainability.

Customer-centred design

Meticulous planning lies behind any successful project. This is particularly true of the fast-moving scenario within which Microline operates, where flexible, highly automated solutions are essential. Microline meets this need by running two departments.

Fast Wrap 1250's technical in depth: the wrapping unit

Fast Wrap 1250 is the latest Microline product for flow-wrapping rolls of paper. The machine features a continuous-flow packaging cycle without alternating movements. This optimises machine operation based on roll sizes.

The partnership with Paperdì: development and orders

The first order placed by the Neapolitan company was for a side-loading case packer that was fitted to an interfolded towel and toilet paper line. The second was for a dedicated high-performance line for hospital paper rolls production, while the third order was fitted downstream of a state-of-the-art interfolded towel and toilet paper line.

Microline and Paperdì: end-of-line automation for the Tissue sector

We supply end-of-line machines for placing hospital paper rolls, towels or toilet paper into boxes to Paperdì, a leading player in the Tissue sector. The partnership, though recent, is already bearing fruit.

Quality Components

The success of an automatic machine depends on the quality of the initial design and factors such as speed and flexibility, but also durability and efficiency. High long-term reliability means that parts costs are kept to a minimum.

Technical in-depth: labeller for AL80

AL80 is a machine for the horizontal packaging of products using plastic film configured to product size and is a leading-edge Microline product. The machine can be equipped with a labelling unit that is fully designed and assembled in-house.

UNI EN ISO 9001:2015 Quality Policy

The quest for quality has always been a guiding principle for our company. Microline’s dedicated Quality Policy aims to offer customers a product that fully meets their expectations, while complying with the need to optimise internal resources.
