How to Keep Large Tortillas Aligned on a Packaging Line

Large flatbreads can shift or tear during wrapping if they enter the packaging line unevenly or move too quickly between equipment. A controlled infeed, guided horizontal transfer, and coordinated film handling help keep each tortilla in position as it travels toward the wrapper.

Features That Support Reliable Alignment

A belt conveyor fitted with side guides or an alignment track can limit sideways movement while allowing the tortilla to travel flat. Photoelectric position sensors can detect product placement, and adjustable conveyor speeds help maintain spacing and orientation before wrapping.

Match the Settings to the Product

Once the flatbread is aligned, a suitable flow wrapper forms and seals the film around it. The available specifications relate to wafer products rather than tortillas, so they do not confirm the right settings for large flatbreads. Test the line with the actual tortilla dimensions and packaging film to assess alignment and reduce tearing.
