, has upgraded its novel dual-mold thermoformer for production of PP containers. The supplier hopes to see its GN1914DM roll-fed continuous former break into PP applications such as hinged containers, large cups, and meat trays. Two robotic stackers, a servo An electromechanical device that uses feedback to provide precise starts and stops for such functions as the motors on a tape drive or the moving of an access arm on a disk.  plug assist, and a multi-zone heating oven have been added to the machine.

It has two alternating molds that shuttle in and out of the forming station.
