The Platinum Packaging Group (PPG) has added even more capacity to our ever-growing capabilities with the introduction of a STEWARTS OF AMERICA high speed hot pin perforating unit with quick change tooling capability, the latest generation perforating machine.
Just this week, we received and installed our brand new Hot and Cold capable Needle/Pin perforating machine. This unit is capable of working widths up to 60”/1524mm, and has STEWARTS OF AMERICA QUICK CHANGE TOOLING capability, which is unique to the industry. This innovation will reduce our tooling changeover times dramatically, allowing us to get to your order faster. The perforating unit is also capable of high performance—with speeds up to 750 ft / 250mt per minute.
New Perforating Machine
This new perforating machine complements our offering of a 2nd 40” needle perforator and a 60” Micro hole perforator that was just purchased over the last 3 years.
Platinum Packaging Group offers perforation technology on lidding films (both limited, coated and extruded), overwrap, and many types of vertical and horizontal roll stock.
Applications vary, from controlling respiration in produce to affecting moisture and gas retention and/or escape in heated applications. With the correct hole size and frequency, we can actually crisp products when they are heated or microwaved.
PPG’s various perforation technologies means we can offer a sophisticated solution for extended shelf life, steam release gas or water vapor transmission rate control.
Min hole Size 125 to 175 Micron / Max 1500 Micron Approx. Current Needle Hole Patterns Available are 30 and or 60 Holes Per Square Foot. We have 2” and 4” Wide Perf Collars (60 holes 2” and 4” collars. 30 holes only 4” collars).
In addition to perforating for our own customers, we are open to toll perforating with material that is delivered to our location.
The Platinum Packaging Group continues to invest to meet our customers’ needs!
