KMD 78.2 Speed

SPEEDFORMER KMD 78.2 Speed

Kiefel's large-format line for food packaging such as meat and fruit trays, clamshells, confectionery inserts and cold drink cup lids. It runs up to 50 cycles per minute with a separate cutting station, or 45 cycles per minute when forming and punching in one station (BFS), and the plug assist has its own servo drive. Tool changes take 30 to 60 minutes and parts can be up-stacked or taken off by pick and place.

Where it fits

The KMD 78.2 Speed suits a high-volume food-packaging producer running meat and fruit trays, clamshells, confectionery inserts or cold drink cup lids, where a separate cutting station reaches 50 cycles per minute, faster than the 45 cycles per minute when forming and punching in one BFS station. A 760 x 580 mm forming area and film thickness up to 1.8 mm cover a wide range of tray and lid products, and tool changes of 30 to 60 minutes matter for a producer running several parts through the week. A converter with lower volume needs would find the ILLIG IC-RDM 75Kc or GtmSmart HEY11 better matched to smaller runs.

Confirm before you order

  • Confirm which stacking configuration (up-stacking, Pick and Place inline, or opposite operator side) fits the plant layout
  • Check power, weight and footprint directly with Kiefel, since none are published for this model
  • Verify film thickness range (0.2 to 1.8 mm) matches the resin gauge planned
