BW Packaging, Barry-Wehmiller’s packaging machinery business, has announced the expansion of its Hayssen X850 flow wrapper into European markets. Originally designed for block and sliced cheeses that require high seal integrity at high speeds, this multi-jaw flow wrapper combines patented servo ring technology and quick-release jaw design to deliver unmatched innovation in performance and quality to the flow-wrapping market.

“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 cheese manufacturers for almost 70 years,” said Jim Kolmus, Vice President of Innovation Operation, 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.” 

With high throughput, the Hayssen X850 cycles up to 300 packs per minute (ppm) and detects and clears product jams without stopping. Its film unwind system allows operators to easily fine-tune film tracking, enabling easy film loading and reducing downtime, while the servo jaw control minimizes wear and maintenance

“This machine also delivers on simplifying the operator experience,” said Meeghan Sheppard, Product Manager, BW Packaging. “It has a customizable RFID login, and the award-winning OpView™ HMI empowers operators through intuitive navigation, guided onboarding and step-by-step instructions — making it easy to onboard or train team members and optimize operation.”

The Hayssen X850 also meets the requirements of today’s manufacturer through its stainless-steel frame for IP66 washdown, advanced HMI-controlled gas flush and independent temperature control that will run various types of zippers and films, including recyclable materials.
