A.M.P Rose '26DM' Bunch
Wrapping Machine for Chocolates
The 26DM bunch-wraps round, square, rectangular, oval or heart-shaped
pieces of moulded or enrobed chocolates in aluminium foil. It has been designed
for ease of operation, low running costs and versatility.
Sequence of operations:
1. Belt-fed machine
The products are manually placed onto the infeed belt of the wrapping
machine. (Alternatively, an aligner-feeder can be supplied to automate this
process)
The infeed belt carries the product to the cross-pusher mechanism, which
automatically transfers the products into an open-ended feedplate.
2. Manually-fed machine
The products are manually placed into the feedplate, which has holes cut into
it the size and shape of the product.
The feedplate then indexes to the elevator position.
The correct length of wrapping material is fed from the reel by paper feeding
rollers to a position directly above the product. The wrapping material is
cut-off by a pair of scissor-type knives.
At this position the product is elevated through the cut wrapper and through
a brush, where the sides of the foil are smoothed around the product. As the
product is elevated through the brush, the wrapping wheel arms grip the sides.
As the wrapping wheel rotates, the foil is tucked underneath the product by two
tuckers to complete the wrapping.
The wrapped products are delivered onto a belt, where a rotating brush
finally smoothes the top of the product.
