ing different materials, such as PET, APET,
RPET, CPET, OPS, HIPS, PS, EPS, PP, PLA,
PVC, has a modular concept and can be
supplied in different configurations. In-
line solutions are also available.
An exceptional repeatability and high-
speed performances make these ma-

T
he extremely positive feedback re-
ceived after the show has determined
AMUT COMI to embrace also the South
East Asian market, presenting the ACF
820 model in operation during China-
plas exhibition. This model is configured
in three stations (forming - cutting - sta-
cking), with formig mould size of 820 x
650 mm and clamping force of 240 kN.
The cutting station has area of 800 x
630 mm and clamping force of 600 kN.
The heating oven is a new development
with 5-step length or 3.250 mm, and
permits to process thick PP sheets with-
out any need of pre-heater.
The visitors will see the machine deliver
PET punnets starting from 350-µ foil and
reach a production speed up to 60 wet

ters of the cycle based on the set speed.
• Optimized diagnostic with information
for research and fully independent solu-
tion of the problems.
• Monitor displaying of I/O PLC cards.
• Automatic check of the set parameters
refusing data that are not compatible
with the predefined cycle.
• Detailed pie chart of all functions of
the automatic loop.
• Energy saving system with optimiza-
tion of oven heating in relation to mould
size.
