Easy integration of existing tools into the KMD 90.1 Premium machine
At NPE 2024, one focus will be on the KMD 90.1 Premium steel rule cutting machine, presenting benefits such as its well-proven performance and process control, as well as its customized configuration with proven down-stacking and Pick&Place stacking. The KMD 90.1 Premium allows for efficient production of various types of high-quality thermoformed polymer packaging for food and non-food applications, including trays, containers, lids and technical packaging, among others.
Furthermore, the KMD 90.1 Premium offers a faster, ergonomic, automated tool change in a unique tool block, taking only 1.5 hours. This facilitates film switching between production runs and increases machine utilization.
New SPEEDFORMER KTR 6.2 for increased output and higher polymer cups
In addition, Kiefel is providing a preview of its latest tilting machine, the SPEEDFORMER KTR 6.2 designed for the mass production of thermoformed polymer high-end cups. This cutting-edge machine presents a larger forming area and a faster forming time thanks to an improved cooling process.
The KTR 6.2 offers over a 30% higher output of cups and coffee capsules than its predecessor, depending on production parameters, such as the film material, amount of tool cavities and product characteristics. Furthermore, this new solution gives customer the opportunity to produce higher cups. Its more powerful drive system at the Trim-in-place station offers more possibilities for processing a wider variety of materials.
Sustainable and innovative natural fiber packaging solutions
Kiefel is also a partner for brand-owners and converters who want to efficiently produce sustainable packaging such as lids and sip-lids,coffee capsules, bowls, cups, and flower pots, from biodegradable natural fibers. Its team of experts offers support from the very first steps of material research and testing, to complete turnkey projects, product development and technology demonstrations at its Customer Innovation Centers in Europe and the US.
This innovative solution will be part of the fiber thermoforming machine portfolio, which includes the compact KFT Lab machine -presented at the show- for research and development purposes, as well as the KFT 90.1 known for the highest process reliability thanks to enhanced Kiefel Steam Flow Technology, its precise temperature control and its optimized HMI interface. With a global network of experienced technicians,prompt after-sales support is ensured to maximize system up-time and productivity.
