Hygiene is paramount when strapping food: machines along the entire process chain must therefore be quick and easy to clean. This is where the advantages of our SoniXs ultrasonic technology come into play: it does not use a heating element - instead, the strapping ends are sealed efficiently and with low emissions using ultrasound. This means that the usual cleaning of the heating element is no longer necessary. This minimizes maintenance costs and protects the environment. Some of our strapping machines are made of stainless steel especially for use in the food industry and can be easily cleaned with water without rusting.

Stainless steel version
The food industry requires high-performance packaging solutions that work reliably even under the most adverse environmental conditions. The strapping machines in the VA model series meet these requirements: their corrosion-resistant components have been specially developed for the cold, damp environment of the food industry. This is ensured by the use of high-quality stainless steel and aluminum materials. The machines have a sealed, splash-proof control cabinet and a control panel in which all cables are wired in sealed terminal boxes.

SoniXs MP-6 T-VA
Our entry-level model SoniXs MP-6 T expands our range for processing large-volume poultry, meat and seafood or for use in humid, harsh environments. The robust and compact strapping machine can be easily moved if required and is an excellent stand-alone machine or addition to a fully automatic line at peak times.

SoniXs MP-6 R-VA
The SoniXs MP-6 R guides the product on a robust roller conveyor belt with toothed V-belt drive. This eliminates belt tracking problems and ensures accurate product positioning. In addition, oversized swivel castors make it easy to move the machine across hall floors and drainage openings. As an option, the conveying direction can be reversed for maximum flexibility with right and left-sided system layouts.

SoniXs MS-6-VA
The side positioning of the head on the SoniXs MS-6 protects it from falling dirt, water and ice, which could impair the strapping cycle. With the optional double dispenser, the machine has two strapping reels and can switch to the second one fully automatically when one reel runs out of strapping without having to stop operation.
Side unit
Our side unit machines offer a decisive advantage: as the patented ultrasonic unit is located at the side and not underneath the products to be strapped, it is less susceptible to contamination from falling particles. The sensitive products in the food industry are also protected: no heat is generated when the straps are sealed and there are no odors that could affect the food. This also prevents dirt particles from sticking to the unit. In combination with upstream and downstream conveyor technology, our side aggregate strapping machines can be operated fully automatically and can be easily integrated into existing production lines.

SoniXs MS-6
Thanks to the lateral positioning of the strapping unit on the SoniXs MS-6 , low-transport or heavy products can be strapped efficiently and easily. The machine is available as a Base and Pro version in combination with the corresponding conveyor technology, making it suitable for both entry-level and high-end requirements.
Horizontal strapping
Flexibility and reliability are essential in the food industry. Fruit and vegetables need to be prepared for transportation quickly and securely, especially during the peak season. Reliable transport protection for heavy or low-height goods, such as fruit or drinks crates, is best achieved with horizontal strapping. Our high-performance machines with their movable frame secure products at different heights for transportation using horizontal strapping. Thanks to their high throughput speed, they are ideally equipped for peak times such as the harvest season: Food producers can strap their cartons or plastic crates placed on pallets up to five times in 20 seconds.

SoniXs MS-6 H
When it comes to flexibility, our SoniXs MS-6 H horizontal strapping machine is unbeatable. It straps products according to specific programs or selects the best strapping position: the built-in sensor detects the height of the product, which the machine then straps according to customer-defined parameters. It can be integrated into fully automatic lines or operated manually.
Customized options
+ VERTICAL EDGE PROTECTION FEEDER FOR THE SONIXS MS-6 H
Vertical edge protectors are primarily used in the fruit industry to secure products that are stacked on several levels and thus prepare them for transportation. For this purpose, right-angled protective elements made of solid cardboard are placed on the four edges of the product to be packaged and then secured with horizontal strapping to form a product bundle. The magazine can be fitted with edge protectors in three different sizes as standard. The edge protectors are made of recyclable solid cardboard material and are therefore an environmentally friendly alternative to methods such as stretch wrapping.
+ AUTOMATIC DOUBLE DISPENSER
Our automatic double dispenser is ideal for use in the food industry, where work often has to be carried out under time pressure. It supplies the machine with two tape reels: When one runs out, the other automatically connects almost seamlessly. This saves 80 percent of the time required for a traditional tape change. The empty reel can then be replaced by a production employee at a convenient time.
+ DOWNSTREAM LABELER
Getting pre-packed and strapped product composites, such as in the beverage industry, on their way to the right recipient without much effort requires appropriate labeling. A labeler downstream of the strapping machine can be used to precisely track the load by means of a label. With the help of double-sided labeling after the strapping process, downtimes are avoided and the label is optimally placed on the product. Customer-specific data can be automatically applied to individual products as required. Your advantage: The labeler can be installed without additional protective housing.
