11082026 KHS Innopack Kisters SP High Speed Shrink Packer - 2017
This excellent condition KHS Innopack Kisters SP A-M high-speed
automatic shrink packing machine was manufactured by KHS in 2017. It
is designed for the efficient secondary packaging of beverage cans and
bottles into retail-ready multipacks using shrink film. The machine
has operated in less than 10,000 hours, maintained by the book and
this in very good condition. Operation was stopped in the end of 2026.
It has previously been used for packing beer and cider in 330 ml and
500 ml aluminium cans in package formats of 6 × 330 ml, 12 × 330 ml
and 6 × 500 ml, but it can be easily configured into various other
formats. It has an operating speed of up to approximately 80 tacts per
minute and a total line production capacity of up to approximately
42,000 cans per hour, depending on container type and packaging
format.
The machine has automatic product infeed, lane distribution and
grouping, precise package formation, shrink-film feeding and wrapping,
an integrated shrink tunnel with forced-air circulation, product
discharge and cooling/stabilization sections. It has two-roll shrink
film feeding system and it is capable to process pre-printed shrink
film with accurate print registration, allowing branded film graphics
to be correctly positioned on each finished multipack.
Machine operation and synchronization are controlled by a Siemens
SIMATIC S7-400 PLC-based automation system together with a dedicated
KHS operator interface, providing centralized control of product
handling, film feeding, package formation, shrink process parameters,
machine speeds, operating modes, alarms and diagnostics. Machine can
be connected to centralized SCADA systems, and it has remote
maintenance connection.
