WaveGrip G1 Auto - small scale production-image 2-001

WaveGrip is launching a new automatic version of its entry-level G1 applicator for lower volume beverage producers. The G1 can create multi-packs of four, six or eight cans, with automatic pack separation, and accommodates a full range of can heights at speeds of up to 100 cans per minute (cpm).

Built to the same quality and standards of the larger G2 and G3 applicators, the G1 includes an Allen Bradley PLC Control and is backed by an experienced engineering support team who ensures seamless installation and integration into each canning line.

Priced at $18,000 with a compact size of 55 in. x 31.5 in. (1.4m x 0.8m), make the G1 perfect for those at the earliest stages in beverage production, especially for production at lower canning volumes, such as craft beer producers.

Compatible with all WaveGrip Carriers, the G1 uses the standard WaveGrip reels, which can pack over 3,000 six-packs and allows a run time of five hours at 60 cpm or three hours at 100 cpm.
