Model FF Balloon Former

The next generation of balloon wrapping is here. The new Model VC2 balloon wrapper (balloon folder) builds on a proven, industry-standard platform—trusted worldwide for reliability—while introducing several key advancements that make it smarter, more productive, and more intuitive. Key Enhancements 15.5″ (39 cm) Touchscreen HMI – Larger, glove-friendly interface with simplified recipe management, streamlined calibration, and manual mode for R&D. Dual-Product Track (Patent Pending) – Wrap two balloons at once. Double productivity without adding cleanroom footprint. Revamped Control Systems – Updated pneumatic and temperature control deliver a new standard in precision and repeatability. Redesigned Product Carrier – Ergonomic, flexible design makes it easier than ever to load and run products. Backwards Compatibility – Continue using pleat and compression stations from previous VC models for a seamless transition. | Balloon forming (balloon blowing, blow molding) machines create balloons from thermoplastic tubing or parisons. The parisons are placed inside a cool mold, then the mold is heated and the high gas pressure is injected to expand the plastic into the inside shape of the mold. The mold is cooled back to room temperature before removing the balloon. The inside shape of each copper alloy mold is custom-made by Blockwise to the customer’s requested geometry. Blockwise induction heating technology makes model FF the world’s fastest balloon forming machine. The thoughtful and refined design has the best ergonomics, safety, and process repeatability. Induction heating and direct-mold cooling provide rapid cycle times and superior uniformity in temperature. Touch-screen software design provides unmatched process flexibility with simple and intuitive recipe editing and management.
