How Automatic Shrink Wrapping Machines Reduce Labor Costs
Let’s do the math, our komalpack machine model S10. Capacity is 10 packs/minute. 1 hour capacity is 600pack. 1 day capacity is 4800packs.One worker pack 1 hour just can pack 10packs. 1 day can pack 80packs. 1 day cost is 1300-1800PKR. Average is about 1500PKR. 4800/80=60 times.S10 cost is about USD10000/set. 10000*280PKR=280 0000.2800000/(1500*60)=30.Means 30 days, you can return cost.Also our machine valid time is more than 10years.So it’s a business with solid return on investment.
If fully automatic shrink wrapping machines require heavy capital investment, which is exteed budget for most small and medium RO water factories.
