About Us

The experience of the Mencarelli family in the mechanical field began early in the last century, in 1925. At the time of its foundation in 1969, Torninova’s experience had already developed, leading the company to specialize in technical support for extrusion lines.

Later, in 1993, Torninova started designing and manufacturing air bubble film machines, stretc.h film machines and dimpled drainage membrane machines.

The company has always been highly involved in research and development in order to offer its customers versatile and flexible systems that combine the most innovative electronic and mechanical technologies.

A commitment to meeting the highest possible standards has led the Torninova Corporation to design its complete range of air bubble film machines, stretc.h film and dimpled drainage membrane machines and to acquire top know-how in the field, now available to its customers.

Today Torninova Corporation is synonymous for Hi-Tech bubble wrap machinery all around the World.

For over 20 years Torninova Corp. has been engaging in the production of top-level equipment, presenting state-of-the art technology applied to air bubble film production lines: all of this has been possible and achieved thanks to the Company’s constant engagement in finding innovative, better performing and cost-saving processes and solutions.

Torninova’s know-how is also based on the willingness to listen to reccomendations and suggestions provided by our clients, who have been helping us to enhance and adapt every single installation, making them suitable for each project’s specific necessity and technical requirements.

Completely focused on this specific line of equipment, Torninova Corp. strives to take the best possible advantage of market feedback and requirements, updating its equipment to comply with the newest regulations. Each of our lines components are homogeneous and perfectly connected to their counterparts, resulting in a perfectly integrated vanguard installation for the production of air bubble film.

All machines are modular and for this reason the whole Torninova Corp. system is easy to upgrade, based on each Client’s specific needs, and applicable on existing machines even if supplied by other companies.

Amongst Torninova’s outstanding specialized bubble foil production equipment the following lines deserve mention for their very special features:

The COEX BUBBLE (10), an authentic masterpiece, represents the most advanced technology available for the production of high-performance air bubble film. In fact, the special co-extrusion configuration allows the production of a symmetrically structured (ABCBA+ABCBA), multilayer air bubble film containing an integrated air retention barrierof Nylon-PA6 (layer C). The result is the production of an ultra-light bubble foil with enhanced cushioning and protective properties, far superior to the same-weight mono-extruded bubble wrap film. In practice, better results are ensured with less material and this means an unbeatable competitive edge in the film market.

HI-TECH AIR BUBBLE FILM MACHINERY

The AIR BASIC belongs to the family of the off-line process plants, and is a patented system based on the hot-air thermoforming process, which processes LDPE rolls to produce air bubble film both for technical packaging and reflective insulation. The specialty of this line, compared to traditional off-line systems, is that it significantly reduces energy consumption and provides maximum production-plan flexibility with its “stop-on-phase” procedure. The AIR BASIC series is still one of the most purchased lines for the production of air bubble film for technical packaging and reflective insulation.

The TWIN BUBBLE is the answer to a new profitable sector which produces air bubble film for use as thermo reflective insulation in costruction applications. Requests from Customers involved in such specific markets have led Torninova Corp. to design and produce this new patented extrusion system.

This machine allows the production of multi-layer compound (sandwich) bubble foil, PE-foam and aluminum foil, all in one-single process. The TWIN BUBBLE system can even produce flame-retardant materials certifiable for all different Worldwide Standards.

Furthermore, the POWER BUBBLE, POLYBOLL and MAC BUBBLE air bubble film production lines complete the Torninova Corp. range. All Torninova Corp. equipment lines offer highly developed electronics, mechanical parts especially designed and created in the Company workshop and 24/7 teleservice assistance.

Torninova Corp. is a journey of quality and tradition in plastic machinery which continues through generations and stands as a guarantee for Clients Worldwide.

A solid technical base, constant focus, continuous development and customised solutions make Torninova Corp. the reliable partner in air bubble film production, ensuring the most effective and worthy results.

The World’s largest packing corporations use the COEX BUBBLE (10) as it represents the most advanced technology for in-line production of air bubble films containing an integrated air retention barrier. The COEX BUBBLE (10) is a cast co-extrusion system with three extruders. It processes LDPE, TIE and Nylon-PA6 pellets to produce high-performance, symmetrically structured (ABCBA+ABCBA), multilayer air bubble film. The 10-layer structure allows for integration of an air-tight, Nylon-PA6 barrier for longer bubble-air-retention, thus improving the film’s cushioning and protective properties, even at reduced thicknesses. For example, a 35 g/m2 of coex film has the same resistance of a 60 g/m2 mono film- a definite competitive advantage!

In place of the main single-screw extruder, the machine can be equipped with a corotating twin-screw extruder that brings these main advantages:1) Up to 30% cost reduction thanks to the less expensive raw materials that can be used (types, quality and grade), including 100% recycled materials;2) Lower energy consumption thanks to the more efficient kW/kg extrusion ratio;3) Higher production flexibility thanks to numerous types of raw materials that can be blended together with PE like calcium carbonate, talc, barium sulfate and other charges and reinforced materials

Especially suitable for technical packaging and envelopes, the COEX BUBBLE (10) series is fully automatic and includes touch screen controls for custom configuration of production recipes. Thanks to an on-board network connection, machine functioning can be remotely monitored via Internet. The modular configuration of COEX BUBBLE (10) lends itself to many useful upgrades, such as a 3rd layer lamination unit, a perforation unit, etc....

CO-ROTATINGTWIN-SCREWEXTRUDER

In place of the main single-screw extruder, the machine can be equipped with a co-rotating twin-screw extruder. This system entails a cost reduction of up to 30% thanks to the less expensive raw materials that can be used (types, quality and grade). This type of extruder even allows working with 100% recycled material. Another great advantage is the reduced energy consumption (up to 40% compared to a single-screw extruder). The latter is due to the more efficient kW/kg extrusion ratio. The twin-screw extruder has a high ability of mixing and homogenization of polymers such as LDPE, LLDPE, HDPE, PP, PA and PA compatibilizers , recycled materials, various additives and materials with different MFIs. The screws are configured to plasticize a high percentage of the trimmings and to ensure high and constant pressure on the screen changer.

Torninova’s patented TRIPLEX winder is the fastest automated tapeless and glueless winder for air bubble film and PE-foam machines. This turret winder is based on a three-cantilever-shaft configuration that allows extremely fast cycle changes (< 40s). The automatic loading of new cardboard cores (whole or split) and extraction of finished rolls is synchronized with a roller-table at the final collection station. The new transversal cutting system allows film to be wound without glue or adhesive tape on the core. Thanks to its advanced technology, the TRIPLEX winds various types and thicknesses of air bubble film and PE-foam, into very short roll lengths, at a speed of over 100 m/min. The TRIPLEX can also be installed on existing production lines.

DUPLEX PLUSWINDER

flexible automatic winder

The DUPLEX PLUS is Torninova’s traditional, highly reliable tapeless and glueless turret winder consisting of two cantilever air expansion shafts with automatic inflation/deflation. Extremely reliable and powerful, the DUPLEX PLUS winds perfect quality rolls to extremely accurate lengths and widths, even when divided in-line into sub-formats. The DUPLEX PLUS can be configured to wind external bubble, internal bubble or double-system films. The DUPLEX PLUS is available with an automatic FAST LOADING system for finished roll extraction, core loading and hot-melt application (both for initial core gluing and roll closure). The DUPLEX PLUS can wind air bubble film and PE-foam of any type and thickness and can also be installed on existing production lines.

VIRWINDER

contact winder for jumbo rolls

The VIR is an in-line contact winder for assembly on air bubble film and PE-foam machines. With its guaranteed speed performance and finished roll quality, the VIR produces rolls up to two meters in diameter and is thus recommended for all customers converting air bubble film or PE-foam through a second manipulation phase (bags, envelopes, formats, sheets, etc..). The larger diameter rolls (longer) are automatically unloaded onto the floor to reduce finished roll replacement times during the conversion process. The VIR can also be installed on existing production lines.

THIRD LAYEREXTRUSIONLAMINATION UNIT

This lamination module can be retrofitted to any new or old extrusion-based machine for the production of air bubble film or PE-foam in net widths of up to 3 meters. It laminates, in-line, a 3rd film of LDPE or HDPE over the bubble layer. The melted film from the single flat die adheres directly to the heads of the bubbles which are rapidly cooled. The result is a surprisingly low-cost, three-layer LDPE air bubble film.Additionally, the same melted film can be used as an adhesive layer for perfectly smooth, high-speed lamination to other rolled materials (PE-foam, coated aluminium foil or kraft paper, printed film, non-woven, etc.). The finished product is an air bubble film with two flat faces, one of which can be optionally characterized by a different material.

THIRD LAYER DIATHERMIC OIL LAMINATION UNIT

This fast and powerful in-line lamination module is easily retrofitted to any new or old machine for high-speed production of air bubble film or PE-foam in net widths of up to 3 meters. The 3rd film layer to be laminated is supplied from the unit’s double-station film unwinder (with non-stop changeover). Teflon-coated cylinders heated by a diathermic oil circuit connected to electric heating units, laminate the 3rd film layer over the bubble layer. This lamination process guarantees the highest production speeds of any main line and ensures best-quality lamination with all kinds of material (HDPE film, PE-foam, coated aluminium foil or kraft paper, printed film, non-woven, etc..). The main advantage of this lamination unit is its ability to laminate film directly on top of the air bubble film with no additional adhesive layer.

THIRD LAYER HOT-AIR LAMINATION UNIT

This in-line, hot-air lamination system is easily retrofitted to any new or old machine for air bubble film or PE-foam production in net widths of up to 1,6 meters. The 3rd film layer is supplied from rolls on the unit’s double-station film unwinder (with non-stop changeover) and is laminated over the bubble layer using hot air. Thanks to this air-based heating system, the unit is especially suitable for lamination of delicate materials such as PE-foam, coated aluminium foil, printed film, etc.. This unit is further distinguished by its “stop-on-phase” procedure and very low energy consumption.

FOURTH LAYER UNWINDER

This unit laminates a 4th layer film (HDPE film, PE-foam, coated aluminium foil or kraft paper, printed film, non-woven, etc..) to the base of the air bubble film, improving or varying the finished film’s aesthetic and/or mechanical characteristics. It consists of a double-station unwinder equipped with two air expansion shafts for loading the 4th layer film rolls. While a roll is unwinding on one station, a new roll can be prepared in stand-by on the other for a non-stop changeover. This modular unit is easily retrofitted to any new or existing in-line air bubble film machine.

PERFORATIONUNIT

This useful independent module is easy retrofitted in-line to any air bubble film machine and can possibly be used in other types of machines producing similar films (PE-foam, blow film, etc.). It makes a preliminary cut on the film at desired intervals (max. 400 strokes/min) before winding, resulting in a finished film roll prepared in pre-cut sections that are quickly and easily torn off when needed. A brushless motor with encoder drives the double-blade pre-cutting device and ensures exact, consistent sheet sizes. The module is available with an optional trim-cutting unit and suction group.

FORMING CYLINDERS

These chromed cylinders for bubble moulding are the most distinguishing element of Torninova’s technical know-how. A monolithic steel cylinder, with a special internal water circuit provides perfectly homogenous thermoregulation, guaranteeing the highest production performance and maximum stability with material of any thickness. The sector vacuum system used for bubble thermoforming increases efficiency and conserves power. The push-to-connect design allows fast cylinder changes. The cylinders can be manufactured according to custom bubble shapes and dimensions and are available for all types of air bubble film machinery.
