BUILT TO LAST
Every LX Series machine is designed with servo driven, PLC controlled label drive rollers, interchangeable cutter assembly, and label shooting wheels to provide accurate and consistent shrink sleeve labeling. LX-350 is constructed using 304 grade stainless steel to provide strength and reduce vibration while offering quiet operation. LX-350 has been engineered to handle oval and round containers made of plastic, glass, or metal at speeds up to 500cpm. Users also have the option of purchasing additional mandrels for non-cylindrical containers. The multiple blade rotational cutting mechanism provides extremely smooth, even cutting of film ranging from 35 microns up to 70 microns.

WORKFLOW VERSATILITY
Size change overs are simple and quick. The cut length can be changed electronically by utilizing the control panel's touch screen interface. For different product diameters, a new timing screw and bullet (mandrel) can be installed in minutes, while different product heights are accommodated by raising or lowering the machine with a turn-screw mechanism. The LX-350 comes with our quick change system for switching mandrels with a turn of a knob. Along with the mandrel, the cutter assembly has only two levers to turn, keeping your downtime to a minimum.

THE RIGHT CHOICE
Rugged design. Maximum uptime. Lower cost of ownership. Your benefits go on and on. When it comes to shrink sleeve and tamper band application, rely on American Film & Machinery to provide the right solution for your shrink sleeve labeling needs.
