STREETSBORO, OH – June 9, 2009 – The AirPouch® Division of Automated Packaging Systems has introduced a new engineering upgrade that eliminates the need for a common wear item found on void-fill air pillow systems. An innovative engineering design has replaced the cutting knife that these systems use to slit the film material just prior to filling each pillow with air.
Now, a new vertical perforating process used exclusively in the manufacture of the preformed AirPouch pillows allows the Express 3™ Void-fill system to run without a knife, therefore significantly extending the length of time between
maintenance cycles. This engineering upgrade makes the AirPouch Express 3 the most reliable and productive void-fill air pillow system available.
