Packaging
Thermoforming
Watttron offers digital surface heating systems for thermoformed packaging. Pixel-accurate temperature control enables maximum precision and offers the ability to precisely influence material flow and thus wall thickness distribution.
FFS Trays
Single-sided preheating from below to form recyclable trays with optimal wall thickness distribution using a high-speed thermoformer.
Applications: Deep-drawn rigid trays for sectors such as food, pharmaceuticals, medical technology, and industrial goods.
Laminating molded fiber or cardboard packaging
Single-sided heating above the mold cavity to laminate thin plastic films into fiber-based packaging with high degrees of deformation.
Applications: Laminated packaging with high degrees of deformation for cosmetics, coffee, or other high-quality food products.
How intelligent pixels optimize your processes
Sustainability and efficiency are the future. Our patented cera2heat® matrix heating system enables precise, heterogeneous contact heating of surfaces.
Success Story: 20% Less Plastic, Greater Product Safety
How can material consumption, packaging quality, and sustainability be improved simultaneously?
Together with our partner WEBOMATIC and the food manufacturer Bedford, we demonstrated how modern thermoforming processes can be made more efficient and sustainable. By using our digital cera2heat® matrix heating technology, film thickness was reduced by 20%, while critical thin spots in the packaging material were eliminated and product safety was further enhanced.
The success story illustrates how precise, digital temperature control helps save plastic, reduce packaging costs, and simultaneously meet the highest quality requirements. A successful example of how innovative heating technology makes the packaging industry more sustainable and economical.
