Description and Purpose of Machine
The purpose of the Pregis Packmaster-pro machine is to produce tough, resilient cushions
of recyclable packaging material.
The machine is loaded with either a single ply or a two ply roll of paper. As the material
passes through the machine it is formed and shaped to produce a continuous cushion
which is cut off to the selected length.
The cushion material has excellent bulk properties which make it ideal for void filling
throughout the packaging operation.
The cushion is multi-cellular to resist impact forces and is readily molded to cocoon even
the most awkwardly shaped objects and protect them from damage in transit.
The machine is of rugged design and construction and its stainless steel finish is quickly
wiped over for cleaning purposes. The sub frame is mounted on castors to facilitate move-
ment to a new area.

the pack is produced and the quantity
display will change to a cycling symbol.
Release the footswitch when the re-
quired length of cushion is produced.
Remove the cushion from the machine.
1. Remove any material from the
outfeed channel and ensure the
outfeed flap is closed.
Do not insert hands through the
outfeed flap inside the outfeed
channel - risk of serious injury
