The PMC-1250 combines versatility with reliable performance in the forming of paperboard cups and containers.

It has the ability to create tapered cups or straight wall canisters, in round or non-round configurations. It efficiently forms inline, and also creates preformed nestable containers. Package heights range from 2.5" to 12", with capacities from 4 oz. to 46 oz. depending upon configuration. Height changes - particularly for straight wall canisters - are made quickly and at a low cost.

Options include a double sealed paperboard bottom that provides excellent compression strength. The recessed bottom also provides stability during the filling operation and through distribution. A rolled top edge adds strength to the package economically and provides easy and secure reclosure.

Repeatable, synchronized operation is assured by cam-actuated machine and station functions. The transfer turret and the patented shuttle feeder of the PMC 1250 Series offer precise control of the paperboard blank and conditions the board prior to forming. Cam-actuated seam clamps and folding wings also help the PMC 1250 perform precisely to specifications and in a repeatable manner. Machine speeds for tapered containers range between 150-165 cpm. Straightwall canisters are most often run at 110-120 cpm.

The 1250 machine has been an industry leader in quality and performance for many years. It has proved its worth on a variety of packages for a variety of markets, including confectionary, cookie, cracker, soup, dried fruit, and beverages.

Production Rate 75 - 165 containers per minute. Speed is largely due to container configuration and blank size. Conversion Materials SBS cup stock with polyethylene two sides is standard. Poly one side and recycled paperboards are an option for some products. Sidewall & Bottom Stock Caliper range .010" - .026". Containers most often formed from preprinted, die-cut sidewall blanks and web fed bottom stock. Preprinted or inline printed sidewall roll stock is also an option. Maximum Container Dimension Maximum height - 12" (1250M) Maximum height - 7.4" (1250) Maximum rim diameter - 5" Minimum Container Dimensions Minimum height - 2.5" Minimum width - 2.1"
