FAQs about Sleeving Machines

Quick answers on formats, closures, speeds, materials, changeovers and integration.

What products can be sleeved?

Ready-meal trays, tubs, cups, cans, bottles and grouped items. We size tooling and guides to your product dimensions and pack style.

Hot-melt vs hooks—how do I choose?

Hot-melt gives maximum speed and strong bonds; hooks suit glue-free, recyclable aims or when reopening is required.

Which closure types are available?

Bottom, side and top closures—chosen for pack geometry, display preference and line flow.

How fast can a sleeving machine run?

Throughput depends on product size and sleeve style. We size the machine to your target packs per minute and presentation quality.

Are changeovers quick?

Yes—recipe recall with simple guide/pad swaps minimises downtime between SKUs and pack counts.

What sleeve materials are supported?

Typically cartonboard (including recycled/PEFC/FSC options). We validate thickness, crease quality and closure method for your line speed.

Can sleeves be printed or windowed?

Yes—printed sleeves, cut-outs and windows are supported; we’ll confirm handling and stability at speed.

How does the unit integrate with my line?

PLC/HMI I/O or fieldbus to upstream fillers/weighers and downstream printers, vision, checkweighers and case packers.

What quality checks are available?

Presence/position sensors and optional vision to verify sleeve fit, artwork orientation and code/date placement, with reject logic.

What maintenance is required?

Routine cleaning and checks on feeders, guides and adhesive or hook mechanisms; preventative servicing keeps uptime high.
