Platinum Packaging based in Paramount near Los Angeles CA supply a wide range of films for the food packaging industry; The Company has major contracts with government institutional feeding programs as well as a substantial base of private customers. They also supply and support a comprehensive range of food packaging machinery.
“We decided to bring all our slitting in house with the purchase of a new Elite Cameron machine” Says Nick Lowe, Platinum’s President, “This significant investment has enabled us to provide a better service to our customers with total control of the process, which is very important when the product is used directly in the food packaging sector”
Platinum spent a considerable time researching slitter manufacturers before choosing the Elite Cameron brand which offered exceptional value. They were very careful with their selection of options focusing on items to reduce set up times and provide consistent high quality product such as automatic tension control, differential rewind shafts, laser knife and core positioning.
The Cameron brand of machines are very well known in the USA and Europe, dating back to the early 1900’s with thousands of installations, most of which were manufactured in New Jersey. 10 years ago they moved the manufacturing to the UK where all the latest range of Elite Cameron machines are now built. Director, Tim Self says “Since consolidating our manufacturing facility we have been able to focus on product development and cost savings, providing high quality, custom engineered solutions at very affordable prices. We continue to provide excellent support in the USA through Camtech LLC, based in Appleton Wisconsin, with experienced sales personnel, engineers and spare parts service staffed entirely by ex-Cameron employees”
Despite the current economical climate the CW range of machines are very popular, with installations all over the globe reaching record levels. These machines offer a real alternative to customers who may have previously considered second hand equipment; they are very competitively priced with all the facilities a customer requires to compete in the market today. Short run, quick turnaround orders are achieved for customers who hold minimal inventory levels.
The latest CW range of centre winders are manufactured using high quality, locally sourced components such as Fife Tidland (Maxcess), Allen Bradley PLC, Parker SSD Touch Screen and digital AC drives, all of which have international support. The USA machines comply fully with OSHA and UL regulations for safety, all parts are powder coated or plated to a very high standard. The Platinum Packaging Group specified a custom paint finish and added their decals for a ‘personal touch’.
“The machine runs exceptionally well on all grades of film producing high quality reels for the consumer. We are so pleased with the performance we have launched a Contract / Toll Slitting side to our business” Says Nick Lowe, “We have moved from a company that used contract services to one who has in house facility to provide outstanding service. The new machines capacity is already nearly reaching capacity and we are considering a purchase of a second machine later this year."
The 63” wide machine has a 36” Unwind and 24” Rewind capacity, equipped with Shear and Razor slitting for all types of Flexible Films (Coated PET, Co Extruded PP, PE and multi layer laminates materials) as well as many other general packaging materials such as paper.
