Machine of the Month: Neapolitan wrapper user-friendly, economical

A.M.P-Rose has just launched its new Neapolitan NR10 wrapping machine.

A.M.P-Rose has just launched its new Neapolitan NR10 wrapping machine. The adjustable, high-speed automatic unit is designed for wrapping small square and rectangular tablets. The machine can be adapted for hand-feeding or equipped with an automatic feeding system.

The NR10 is very versatile and can be used for either single or double wrappers, with the outer paper taken from a stack of pre-cut labels rather than the more common reel fed systems.

By using pre-printed labels, this allows the manufacturer to pack small quantities of product, which is particularly useful for smaller volume clients requiring such items for marketing promotions, corporate gifts and other short-run needs.

The Gainsborough, England-based company has designed the NR10 with the user in mind. The machine controls are simple and easily accessible to the operator via the conveniently located HMI unit. The mechanisms have been designed in such a way that they can be understood by non-technical personnel, saving time and money on maintenance.

The NR10 machine has been manufactured for flexibility and low running costs. As a result of its modular construction, the machine can be quickly and easily size-changed at a very reasonable cost.
