OMV Machinery’s Unique Technologies
On-line Rim Rolling of Round & Non-Round Containers
Rim Rolling of Cup and Tray Flanges
OMV offers a very unique and patented method of rim rolling the flange of round plastic cups as well as non-round containers. Once the plastic cups have been formed and then trimmed out of the plastic sheet, the edge of the container will end up having sharp or rough edges. With the rim rolling technology, OMV is able to roll the rim, so that the sharp and rough edge is tucked under the flange and thus presents a safe and smooth drinking experience for the consumer.
Meat trays are often wrapped with a plastic film. If the edges are sharp, it may tear the film, causing the meat to lose its protection and become contaminated though the opening. Rolling the tray rims, protects the film from being damaged.
