We package it — safely and professionally.
Whether finished or semi-finished products made from a wide variety of materials, shapes, and sizes, our systems reliably package them all. From small metal parts as individual or bundled units to long aluminum profiles. All products are packaged in a wide variety of film types, depending on requirements.
Industrial components — from screws and fasteners to tools, drive components, and precision parts — place precise demands on packaging processes.
Corrosion protection, the mechanical strength of the packaging material, and the legibility of article numbers and labels are key criteria. Packaging machines must reliably process different formats and weight classes.
Packaging examples
Which packaging machine for your product?
Together we'll find the right solution!
Your product is unique. So are your packaging requirements. Our standard for film packaging is always the same:
"A pack has to be perfect!"
We act according to this principle. To ensure the packaging result is right in the end, a wide range of factors must be considered in advance. When choosing a suitable packaging machine, several machine types are generally possible candidates. But there is only one machine that, taking all factors into account, achieves the optimal packaging result. Together with you, we want to find exactly that Kallfass system.

Packaging requirements for industrial components
Metal components are sensitive to moisture. Corrosion on surfaces, threads, or functional areas means rejects or complaints. VCI films (Volatile Corrosion Inhibitor) release corrosion-inhibiting agents and protect metal surfaces without additional coating — they are commonly used for components made of steel, aluminum, or copper and serve as flexible packaging solutions for different metals alike.
Sharp edges and high unit weight place greater mechanical strain on the packaging material than with other product groups. Tear-resistant films with sufficient wall thickness are essential here. For assortment or set packaging — such as screw sets for assembly — all components must be packaged together and remain clearly identifiable as a set. Article numbers, barcodes, and labels stay visible and scannable through transparent film.

Packaging principles for industrial components
Individual parts and set packaging are fully enclosed via full film wrap. Side sealing machines work precisely and with format flexibility here — even with varying dimensions within a single production run. Film banderoles are suitable for bundling stacked cartons or trays. The goods are held securely together without the need for elaborate secondary packaging.
Shrink tunnels create a form-fitted, transport-stable unit. Especially with components of irregular geometry, an even shrink result is important — it prevents play within the packaging and thus damage from friction or impact. As an experienced manufacturer of packaging machines, Kallfass offers shrink tunnels in various versions for specific applications. The systems can be tailored to different film types and product geometries — a crucial requirement for efficient packaging solutions in the supplier industry.
Automated packaging processes with a wide range of items
Suppliers in mechanical engineering and the automotive industry package dozens of different items every day. Automated packaging systems must accommodate this variety without long setup times. Saved programs for different products can be quickly accessed via the Kallfass Easy Touch HMI. Format changeovers are completed in just a few steps. Kallfass packaging technology is designed to ensure stable and efficient machine runtimes even with changing batch sizes.
Integration into existing picking and shipping lines takes place on a project-specific basis.

FAQ
What is VCI film, and when is it used for industrial components?
VCI stands for Volatile Corrosion Inhibitor. The film releases corrosion-inhibiting agents in gaseous form, which settle on metal surfaces and prevent oxidation. VCI films are suitable for steel, aluminum, and copper parts and are used wherever longer storage or transport times require reliable corrosion protection.
Can components with sharp edges be packaged on standard packaging machines?
Yes, provided the packaging material is matched to the product. For parts with sharp edges or points, tear-resistant films with a higher wall thickness are used. Kallfass provides advice on film selection and adjusts sealing parameters and machine settings to suit the specific product.
How can a wide range of items be efficiently handled on a single packaging machine?
Saved product programs on the Easy Touch HMI allow different items to be quickly recalled. This significantly reduces setup times and makes format changeovers economical.
Are film wrapping machines also suitable for assortment and set packaging?
Yes. Set packaging — such as assembly parts — is sealed as a unit using full film wrap. All components remain enclosed together securely. With transparent film, article numbers and labels remain visible.
How are industrial components transferred from the packaging machine to downstream processes?
Kallfass systems can be integrated into shipping and picking lines on a project-specific basis. Interfaces to additional components are defined together with the customer. The control system communicates with higher-level systems via standard protocols.
