Laser scribing of barrier packaging for easy opening
As part of its current film expansion programme, TCL Packaging has been working in collaboration with Rofin-Baasel UK to develop a turnkey system for high-speed laser micro perforation and scribing of barrier film.
The new laser scribing and perforating solution to be installed at the Telford manufacturing plant has three scanning heads each with Rofin two-axis technology. It is capable of perforations down to 0.1mm in size, micro-perforated or through just one film layer and in any pattern. Lasers operate along and across the web to facilitate fast, complex and highly flexible designs.
Barrier film packaging is ideal for tear-off strips, offers and separate food sections, as well as for opening panels in wet wipes which require maximum protection of moisture content but with an easy opening for consumer convenience as required.
Multi-layer, recyclable PET laminates reduce waste as an alternative to aluminium film. If you’re interested in barrier films products, please speak with us today.
