Inside the WRAPID-350: High-Speed Overwrapping at 350 Packets/Min

A close look at the WRAPID-350 overwrapping machine: what it does, the pack and film range it handles, and where the crisp clear overwrap actually earns its keep.

The overwrap is the layer a customer touches first. That tight, clear film around a carton or pack does quiet, important work: it seals out dust and moisture, it adds tamper evidence, and, done well, it makes the product look finished. The WRAPID-350 is MOI Engineering's high-speed answer to that job, overwrapping 325–350 packets per minute with the classic envelope fold.

This is a technical look at what it is, what it handles, and where it belongs in a line.

What the WRAPID-350 does

It takes a closed pack or carton and wraps it in a single sheet of heat-sealable film (BOPP or cellophane), forming an overlapping body seam and tucked, folded ends. The result is a crisp, fully sealed clear overwrap at production speed. It's built for premium finish where appearance and protection both matter: cigarette packs and cartons, and rectangular packs across FMCG.

Overwrapping is a line-speed operation. The WRAPID-350 keeps pace at up to 350 packets per minute.

The numbers that matter

A wrapping machine lives and dies by its range and its film handling. Here is where the WRAPID-350 sits:

Output capacity325–350 packets per minute
Pack length65–125 mm
Pack width35–60 mm
Pack height15–25 mm
FilmsBOPP / cellophane (22 micron ±2)
Cut-off width90–161 mm
Reel diameter350 mm (78 mm core)
Installed power5 kW · 415 V, 3-phase, 50 Hz
Air consumption0.1 m³/min @ 5–6 bar
Footprint3200 × 1350 × 2000 mm · approx. 1,500 kg

The takeaway: a wide pack window from small to mid-size rectangular packs, thin-gauge film handling, and a modest 5 kW draw for 350-a-minute output.

Where it fits in the line

Overwrapping is a secondary-packaging step: it happens after the pack or carton is closed and before bundling or palletizing. In a tobacco line, the WRAPID-350 sits downstream of packing and cartoning, dressing each unit before it's bundled for distribution. In an FMCG context, it does the same job for any rectangular pack that needs a clear, sealed, premium finish.

Match the wrapper's speed to the machine feeding it, and the overwrap stops being a bottleneck and starts being a finish.

Specifying one well means matching three things to the packs you actually run: the dimensional window, the film you want on shelf, and the throughput of the upstream machine. Get those right and the overwrap disappears into the line, exactly as it should.
