Dependable Shrink Sleeving Speeds Up to 400 CPM

Axon Aurora mid-speed multi-pack, shrink sleeve label and tamper band applicators provide dependable, steady-state production speeds up to 400 containers or multi-packs per minute.

Aurora multi-pack, tamper band, and sleeve label applicators are mandrel style machines that use servo motion control to deliver consistent, repeatable performance. Container changeovers are tool-less and require less than ten minutes depending on product sizes and shapes.

Axon Aurora applicators feature PackML programming and user interfaces which simplify machine operation, maintenance, and line integration.

Features & Benefits

Recipe functionality - Change machine settings with the push of a button for quick changeovers.
No lubrication required - Maintenance of our Aurora machines is simplified with no lubrication required.
Ethernet - Built-in Ethernet/IP communications for rapid line integration and business systems interface.
Bilingual operation - English and Spanish HMI for your diverse workforce.
Multiple perforation options - Horizontal, T-style, or vertical.
Left or right-hand orientation - Run either left or right handed operations to fit your packaging line.
Electric height adjustment - No hand cranks, simple push button control.
PMMI certified training - Operator training provided by a PMMI Certified Technician.
Size range flexibility - Container or multipack diameters range from 1.2" (30 mm) to 4.9" (125 mm). Larger sizes are compatible with Aurora Wide applicators.
Fast, tool-less size changeovers - Size changeovers can be completed in less than ten minutes depending on container sizes and shapes.
Servo motion control - Dedicated servo drives for the feedscrew, film feed system, and cutting assembly deliver fast, accurate film feeding, registration and cutting.
Auto-reversing cutter assembly & dual edge blades - Dual-edge cutting blades with a programmed auto-reversing cutting system extends blade life and reduces frequency of blade replacement.
Electronic height adjustment - Push-button system eliminates manual hand-crank height adjustments.
Pivoting head assembly - Film orientation is easily adjusted for non-round containers by rotating the sleeving head assembly up to 90°.
Sealed-for-life bearings - Lubrication free bearings and servo motion control make the Aurora a lubrication free machine.
