A production speed of 24,000 pph. Free-flowing without reel breakage.
Compact and reliable.The new R400 shrink sleeve applicator from PDC Europe is your productivity’s secret weapon.
This beautifully-designed machine effectively delivers outstanding results – 400 ppm on 300 mm (length) shrink sleeves and can run up to 600 cpm on small bottles using a single head. Equipped with our unique, patented cutting system, the R400 easily copes with long cut lengths and/or thin guage sleeves.
Thanks to its compact footprint, the new R400 from PDC Europe fits neatly into most lines. Perfectly adapted to meet the high speed demands of industries including beverage, brewing and dairy, global giant Danone has already purchased a R400 to join its five other PDC sleevers.
Efficient, simple to use and totally reliable, the R400 offers an extremely short ROI thanks to its low maintenance requirements and ability to use low guage material. Its impressive sustainability credentials have also been acknowledged with a ‘Best Energy Efficiency’ award.
With development of the R400 starting in 2013 and utilising the many decades of engineering experience in the PDC family, this innovative high-speed sleeving machine with clear interior view is the perfect balance between sharp technology and smart design.
PDC Europe’s field engineers travel to customers worldwide to train operators on the R400, maximising its effective operating mode, easy maintanence and fast size change over. PDC engineers can also communicate with the machine remotely, thanks to the integrated Siemens PLC ‘Motion’ technology, with PDC one of the few partners chosen by Siemens in this field.
