Can a feeding system fix our output problem without a new wrapper?

Often, yes, and it is the first thing worth checking. Where downtime is dominated by starvation instead of faults, buffering and distribution lift sustained output on the wrapper you already have, for a fraction of the cost of a new machine. Your downtime split, line layout and product handling requirements are what shape the LOMATIC configuration. Send us the numbers and we will show you where the output is sitting.

The LOMATIC is the machine that lets a wrapper deliver everything it was built to deliver, and it is the one most buyers consider last.

A wrapper reaches its rate when product arrives oriented, at the right pitch, with no gaps. A gap means an empty flight, and an empty flight is a cycle you do not get back. The LOMATIC absorbs the variation coming off production and presents a steady stream to the machine behind it.

Where the output is won

Steady, oriented product is what turns installed capacity into finished packs. A LOMATIC in front of the wrapper lifts sustained output on the machine you already own, and on an existing line it is often the most direct investment available to you.

LoeschPack engineers its feeding and distribution equipment alongside its wrappers because the two are specified as a pair, and Piepenbrock Packaging specifies them that way for production lines in all of North America. What drives flow wrapper output sets out how the feed and the wrapper work together.

Lake Champlain Chocolates: Tripling Output on a Sealed Fold Wrap

A Vermont chocolate maker needed hermetically sealed bar ends and three times the output. Nine months from project start to commissioning, the line runs 200 bars a minute.
