For Jean-Charles de Castelbajac perfumes, ASM designed an automated line in the Grasse valley that manufactures high-end, quilted perfume packaging by assembling four layers of materials. It combines quilting, stitching and ultrasonic welding, cutting and gluing, with a cycle time of 6 seconds.
The need: luxury packaging that is precise and aesthetically pleasing
The packaging had to combine four distinct layers of polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP), with a quilted appearance and imitation red stitching. Precision and visual quality were as important as production speed.
The solution: a multi-stage ultrasonic assembly
- Unrolling and quilting the four layers
- Ultrasonic topstitching, which gives the imitation seams their red color.
- Cutting and welding around the perimeter
- Removal and reattaching of the assembly
- Final cutting of a Velcro strip
Technical specifications
• Materials: 4 layers of PE and PP
• Technologies: ultrasonic welding and stitching, cutting, gluing
• Cycle time: 6 seconds
ASM has designed and installed more than 300 production machines since 1997.
