Starlinger's new ad*starKON SX offers "highly efficient, fast and reliable" conversion of the patented AD*STAR sacks made of coated polypropylene tape fabric.
Designed for the economic production of standard, open mouth, 2-ply, pocket valve and BOPP laminated AD*STAR sacks, the line runs at up to 85 sacks/min, with a pin-free continuous sack transport system and highly precise bottom forming system, ensuring reliable bottom and top closure without harming the fabric.
An integrated fabric width monitoring system continuously checks the fabric width and automatically compensates width variations, ensuring constant high quality bottom geometry. This avoids unnecessary machine stops and reduces the number of rejects significantly. Changing the sack format is now "easier than ever", done automatically by key press on the main control panel.
