Automation & Control SystemsThe FS 45 integrates automatic grouping
and film application optimized for consistent shrink wrapping results.
Its control architecture supports stable operation, precise timing,
and synchronized infeed to maintain target throughput.
Operator-friendly controls facilitate start-up, stop, and routine
adjustments, while status indication and fault messaging streamline
production oversight. Quick mechanical adjustments help reduce
changeover time between supported pack patterns.Production Line
Integration CapabilitiesEngineered for seamless integration, the
Variopac Pro FS 45 interfaces smoothly with upstream and downstream
bottling equipment on PET lines. It is suitable for stand-alone
operation or as part of a complete packaging system, connecting with
conveyors for continuous flow. The machineâs two-row grouping
supports common beverage pack patterns such as 4x3 for 0.5L and 2x3
for 1.5L PET bottles, enabling flexible secondary packaging layouts
for various SKUs in beverage production and industrial packaging
environments.Machine Condition & Maintenance HistoryThis unit is
presented as ready for operation, well-suited for deployment in a
second hand used bottling line. The robust Krones engineering of the
Variopac Pro series is known for durability and maintainability,
supporting ongoing performance with routine service practices typical
of high-volume packaging machinery.Operational Performance &
VersatilityOptimized for PET containers, the FS 45 delivers stable
bundle formation for beverage production lines. Its film-only
configuration eliminates the need for trays, reducing material usage
while maintaining transport stability after shrink. The two-row
grouping design helps achieve the specified cycles per minute with
common pack matrices. This shrink wrapper is a strong fit for
industrial packaging operations handling high-volume SKUs, supporting
applications across water, juice, CSD, beer, and other beverage
segments where PET bundling is standard.Installation Requirements &
Site PreparationThe Krones Variopac Pro FS 45 is intended for
installation on level industrial floors with appropriate access for
conveyors and bundle discharge. A standard industrial power supply and
plant compressed air are typically required for operation. Allocate
sufficient clearance around the machine for film roll changes, routine
service, and safe operator access. Integration planning should
consider conveyor heights, accumulation strategy, and downstream
palletizing or pallet wrapping.Safety Standards & Compliance
CertificationDesigned for beverage and food-industry environments, the
FS 45 is equipped with guarding, interlocks, and emergency stop
functions to protect operators and service personnel. Safety features
support compliance with recognized industrial standards for packaging
machinery. Hygienic design elements and cleanable surfaces contribute
to good manufacturing practices in beverage production contexts.
