Maksimal™ FPS System

Maksimal™ FPS (Flexible Pouching System)

Aagard is combining continuous motion pouch forming, filling, and sealing for the first time. The Maksimal™ FPS is redefining HFFS and bringing advantages not found elsewhere. The Maksimal™ FPS is able to run thinner, less expensive films, and run faster. The Maksimal Series™ employs a unique frame and control cabinet approach that minimizes field wiring and provides superior machine access. The modular approach of the Maksimal Series™ provides flexibility for system configuration and for future changes in the field.

Run Thinner Films: The Maksimal Series™ successfully runs film that no other HFFS machine can. The film is transported at a lower, continuous rate while laying flat during sealing. The seals are made with independent sealing stations resulting in material print requirements that are far less stringent than on traditional machines.
Bottom Line: Save money on your film
 
Run Faster: Continuous motion forming, filling, and sealing adds significant speed gains compared to the intermittent machines currently available on the market. Maksimal™ allows you to design the package you need without worrying about the limitations associated with the “duplex” and “triplex” approaches used by others.
Bottom Line: Run bigger pouches faster

Reconfigure in the Field: Aagard’s innovative approach to modularity and the control of the machine has resulted in a system that is easy to service and reconfigure as required. We know that product life and packaging style can be dynamic so we make it as easy as possible to reconfigure your Aagard equipment and reutilize it.
Bottom Line: Great Performance, Open Options

More Filling time: Funnels that travel with the pouches provides significantly more time to get products into the pouch than on single point fill machines.
Bottom Line: Run tough products others can’t
