Folding tool

A seaming tool is a special tool that is integrated into the corresponding tube filling machines. The folding tool closes the open end of the tube after the filling process.

Types of folding tools:

  • Single seam tool: For easy folding of the tube end
  • Double-fold tool: For double folding for a particularly tight seal
  • Round hemming tool: For round hemming shapes
  • Rectangular folding tool: For rectangular fold shapes

The choice of seaming tool depends on the tube material, the desired type of closure and the product requirements. Modern seaming tools can be changed quickly for different tube types.
