Now Garant is offering its Matador XL servo driven flat and satchel paper bag maker to produce bag widths from 50-130mm, and cut-off lengths from 800-1,500 mm. Outputs of around 120 bags/min are said to be possible, with very good dimensioned tolerances in both the length and the width, and a much better reject rate than is the industry norm.
The machine also complies with all European noise and safety regulations - a growing problem in an industry where some machines are more than 40 years old.
Although designed for a single product, the volumes involved in the bevcan industry are considerable and Garant expects to sell several of its machines a year.
