Profile Wrapping Machine
Manufacturer: Barberán
Model: WM-33
New Machine
General Function
The profile wrapping machine or line is designed to wrap profiles of various shapes, sizes, and materials using different foils with hot melt adhesives. The machine can operate as a standalone unit or as part of a complete production line. The machine length depends on the size and shape of the profiles the customer intends to use.
Materials
This machine is capable of working with various materials such as PVC, aluminum, and some composites. Special configurations are required for materials like PVC or aluminum. Barberán must be informed when such profiles are used.
Foils
Various foil types can be used, such as paper, PVC, PP, acrylic, thin CPL, nonwoven-backed veneer from rolls, etc. Some of these require special adhesives or heat treatment. Barberán must be informed of the desired foils to ensure optimal performance.
Adhesives
This profile wrapping machine is designed for the use of market-standard PUR hot melt adhesives. Barberán must be informed about the type of profiles and foils, as well as the desired production capacity, so that a suitable hot melt adhesive unit can be offered.
