GKV 6900
The GKV 6900 is the first horizontal machine in our series of net sealing machines with ultrasonic technology. It is conceptualised especially for sensitive products and was developed at the customer’s request for the packaging of courgettes.
- Particularly suitable for sensitive products
- Pure net packaging without wire clip
- Suitable for packaging sizes up to 2.5 kg as standard
- Net length continuously adjustable via touchscreen
- Tight net packs possible due to mesh return
- Simple handling and parameterisation
- Various optional labelling options
Market leader in the area of net sealing machines
With the implementation of ultrasonic welding technology in a new generation of net packaging machines, we at Gekupack® succeeded as early as 1994 in taking a step towards species-pure packaging that was much respected by the industry. The ultrasonic net sealing machines not only do without metal as a sealing material when sealing the PE net bags, but also seal the packs completely and reliably without any additional foreign material. The species-pure net packaging produced in this way is thus more sustainable than conventional packaging in two respects:
- The net is much more resource-efficient than solid material (film).
- The mono packaging has a significantly higher recyclability than the counterpart with wire clips.
Since the invention of mesh welding technology based on ultrasonic technology, we have continuously developed our machines — also with the close involvement of our customers. In the meantime, the mesh welding machines are not only much more efficient than they were at the beginning, which is sometimes also based on other technological successes and components used, they are also compatible with various sustainable mesh materials (e.g. compostable mesh). Here you can learn more about possible packaging types and materials.
This technique is used for packaging chunky goods such as confectionery, cheese snacks, peanuts, fat balls, lemons, garlic or onions.
The high performance and reliability of our mesh welding machines, coupled with the expertise and decades of experience in building and supplying not only the welding machines themselves, but also all the necessary additional components to complete overall systems, have led to the outstanding reputation of Gekupack® and made GK Industries the market leader in this field.
The areas of application of the different models of our net sealing machines with ultrasonic technology are extremely diverse. Lumpy products are packaged with them — flours and fine granules are not feasible due to the mesh structures. Basically, the machines are designed for both the food and non-food sectors. Among the most common goods packaged with the ultrasonic net sealing machines are peanuts or other nut mixtures, lemons, garlic or onions, as well as cheese and other snacks and sweets such as chocolate drops, chocolate balls and chocolate eggs, in addition to classic feed balls or fat balls.
The GKV 6900 as a horizontal net sealing machine is also excellently suited for sensitive products that should not receive pressure marks from gentle impacts or the like. This machine can be used to gently pack delicate, soft or fragile goods such as cucumbers or courgettes.
If you are unsure whether net packaging is suitable for your products or if you too would like to benefit from the many advantages of pure packaging, please feel free to contact us. We look forward to hearing from you.
At a time when regulations require a multitude of packaging instructions and marketing is more important than ever before, product labelling plays a particularly important role. For this reason, it is of course also possible to integrate labelling and label printing with a thermal transfer printer directly into the packaging process. For example, packs with a wineglas-label and / or a belt from seal to seal are available as an option.
As an extremely customer- and solution-oriented company, we always strive to supply you with the best possible packaging machines and systems. That is why we are always prepared to adapt our standard machines specifically to your wishes and needs as well as to your product and the associated requirements. As a result, the following technical details of the standard version of the GKV 6900 are not necessarily fixed values, but rather variable guide values. The GKV 6900 is characterised by the following standard features:
- Pack size up to 2.5 kg / ~ 5.5 lbs
- Packing length infinitely adjustable
- Pipe diameter: 240 mm
- Shaft belts running in the net tube for gentle product transport
- Automatic pipe changing system for refilling net material without machine downtime
- Easy to service due to pull-out locking unit, e.g. for changing knives
- Modern servo drive technology
- Touchscreen for easy operation
- All parameters can be set and saved
