Bosch Pack 102 Horizontal Flow Wrapper

Bosch (now Syntegon) Pack 102 horizontal flow wrapper, serial number 19-35575, built by Bosch Packaging Technology, Inc. in New Richmond, WI. The Pack 102 is an entry-level stainless steel horizontal form-fill-seal wrapper that wraps discrete products in a continuous film tube with a longitudinal fin seal and crimped end seals, producing pillow-style flow wraps. Published data for the model lists output of up to roughly 90 packages per minute, depending on seal jaw and product setup, over a wide product size range. The machine is configured with a single-lane (1-up) lugged infeed conveyor approximately ten feet long with adjustable side guides, T-handle quick-adjust rails, graduated scales for repeatable changeover and a photoelectric product sensor. The film unwind and dancer/idler roller assembly is mounted on the vertical frame column, with a film path diagram on the operator panel noting provision for an optional coder. Operator controls consist of a color touchscreen HMI with blue and green pushbuttons, stop and E-stop, and two Watlow EZ-ZONE temperature controllers for the sealing zones. The discharge end carries a guarded belt conveyor with a gearmotor drive. Construction is stainless steel and anodized/aluminum framing, and the whole machine sits on casters with leveling feet. A rotary main disconnect is mounted on the control column. Nameplate electrical data: 208-240 V, 60 Hz, 1 phase, full load amps 17 (4300 W), largest motor 2.4 A, short circuit current rating 5 kA. Overall footprint is approximately 170 in long x 40 in wide x 72 in high. The unit comes from a medical device / pharmacy admixture facility.
