Complete packaging machines: Turello's solutions

Packaging cartridges

Turello packaging machines can handle plastic, aluminium and cardboard cartridges. The ARCC series is an automatic horizontal machine for medium and high viscosity pastes. Over the years it has been developed with innovative technical solutions such as electronic control of the filling phase. ARCC machines are extremely reliable, have PLC control and offer great performance (55 cartridges per minute), thereby making them some of the most efficient systems on the market. The ARCV series is a vertical packaging system that ensures the very same technical specifications as the ARCC series but can also be used in specific cases according to characteristics of the product (low viscosity), of the packaging (two-component cartridges) or specific production needs (packaging machines with 3 or more heads). The range of set-up options allow the ARCV series to be customised according to specific customer requirements. The APPM and ADC series are cartridge closing devices that manually (APPM) or automatically (ADC) deal with this phase of the production process. They are ideal for low production volumes where it wouldn't be worth investing in an automatic packaging system.

Marking, handling and selecting cartridges

To satisfy every marking need there is a wide range of devices belonging to the ARTE series, which rotate and/or move the cartridge. Agreements with leading companies in the sector also allow Turello to supply marking and/or labelling devices. Our product range is completed by ACR series conveyor belts, which allow cartridges to be moved within departments, and ASC series selection systems, which allow the storage, selection and correct orientation of empty cartridges before entering silk-screen printing machines .

Packaging sealants in sausages

We have been developing and manufacturing automatic machines for packaging sealants in sausages for over 30 years. The various series differ mainly for the closing system, originally sealed and now done using horizontal clips. The SLMT (round clips) and SLMP (flat clips) series are designed to work with clips from all the major suppliers on the market. They guarantee a high production capacity (up to 40 pieces per minute) and their control and management systems make them reliable and easy to use.
They can be combined with the DSM and DSMM series and can be customised with a wide range of available options highlighted in the technical data sheet.

Packaging in cans

We have also decided to create a vast catalogue of machinery for can packaging that is able to meet the needs of companies with very different production volumes. The BR series of manual packaging machine represents the ideal solution for low production volumes, guaranteeing maximum flexibility at a low cost. Available in the by weight version and by volume version. The BRCV series packaging machines, on the other hand, are specifically aimed at the offset ink industry. We have actually developed two specific features for this sector that let the air present in the cans be replaced with an inert substance (nitrogen) during the closing phase and make it possible to use the vacuum technique to protect the material contained in the can. Also available in by weight and by volume versions. Finally, the BRCH series packaging machines are specifically designed for the hot-melt market. Designed to work with high temperature products, they are able to accommodate a range of can sizes. Tailorable according to customer needs, they are available in by weight and by volume versions.

Packaging machines for drums

The RF series drum packaging machines are used for packaging low and medium viscosity products. In addition to the variety of configurable options in line with various company needs, one of this series' advantages is the short feed hoses that make it easy to clean. Turello offers three series machines for packaging high viscosity products in 200-litre industrial drums or in metal drums:

• the RFP series allows the product to be spread over the entire surface avoiding any air entering the drum thanks to its particular configuration (fixed drum and lifting plate in contact with the product);

• the RFS series maintains the characteristics of the RFP series but keeps the nozzle fixed and provides for the lifting of the drum, thus allowing the use of rigid and shorter pipes;

• the RFV series offers vacuum filling and thus avoids air entering the drum even without the lifting mechanism of the plate or the drum as per the two previous series.

Packaging machines for tubes

The two series of tube packaging machines designed and produced by Turello are the CTM series and the CTA series. CTM machines are manual devices for closing aluminium tubes by folding the flaps and are well suited to use with low production volumes or high packaging variability. CTA tube filling machines, on the other hand, are automated for the packaging of medium and high viscosity pastes in aluminium or polyethylene tubes.
