BW Packaging, a division of Barry-Wehmiller, recently introduced the Hayssen X850, a cutting-edge multi-jaw flow wrapper crafted specifically for cheese and other products that demand high seal integrity at impressive speeds. This innovative machine features patented individual ring technology and a quick-release jaw design, making it a game changer in the realm of food and drink packaging.
“The Hayssen X850 was designed to build upon the strong foundation of our previous Hayssen RT model, a flow wrapper that has been a powerhouse for many block and sliced cheese manufacturers for almost 70 years,” said Jim Kolmus, Vice President of Innovation at BW Packaging. “Rooted in customer feedback, the X850 modernizes the operators’ experience in several ways, notably reducing the number of tasks and time required for maintenance.”
The Hayssen X850 excels with a high throughput capability, cycling up to 300 units while maintaining over 1 second of dwell time. Importantly, it can detect and clear product jams without requiring a stop. Additionally, its advanced film unwind system allows operators to finely adjust film tracking, facilitating seamless film loading and minimizing downtime, while the servo jaw control reduces wear and maintenance.
“In addition to its exceptional performance, we designed the machine to be smart,” noted Brantley Turner, Senior Product Manager at BW Packaging. “The Hayssen X850 has both brawn and brains. With RFID login and advanced OpView™ HMI standard on every machine, operation is made simple for any operator.”
Moreover, the Hayssen X850 is engineered to meet modern manufacturing expectations. It features a stainless steel frame designed for IP66 washdown, hygienic sloped surfaces, and independent temperature control that accommodates various types of zippers and films, including sustainable and recyclable materials.
For generations, cheese manufacturers have regarded Hayssen as a reliable partner, known for flexible packaging solutions. Built on a legacy of exceptional performance and unmatched dependability, Hayssen continues to deliver what matters most while supporting the evolving needs of food and drink sustainable packaging innovators.
