Using the same principle as our quick changeover machine parts Zepf UK has developed a unique quick size change guide-rail system which enables repeatable change-overs to be carried out quickly and accurately by all production staff.

Width setting is achieved using a multi positional cam disc to both adjust and lock the guide-rails in place.  Each container guide width is indicated by a dedicated colour insert on the positional disc.
