Overview
HSM built the ProfiPack to recycle used cardboard into perforated padding for packing. Special shafts perforate the board and cut it to the needed width, while bearing plates keep it feeding flat.
Turning waste boxes into cushioning is the reason to buy, which suits a busy dispatch area. It handles one layer at a time and weighs a lot, so it needs a permanent bench.
Who it's for
Made for warehouses and e-commerce packing stations. Offices wanting to shred documents need a paper shredder.
Pros and cons
- Turns waste boxes into padding
- Hardened single piece blade shafts
- Built in measuring ruler
- Long cutting cylinder warranty
- Single layer only
- Heavy to move
- Not for paper documents
Performance notes
Grooved cutting shafts punch a uniform pattern into the board so it flexes and cushions. Bearing plates stop the cardboard twisting or catching. A large motor sets throughput, and hardened shafts shrug off the odd soft staple.
