The AirPouch Express 3 Tabletop Void-fill System provides on-demand,easy-to-use air pillows for high packing productivity, reduced shipping costs, and increased customer satisfaction. Operating at speeds over 50 feet per minute in semi-or fully-automatic modes, the AirPouch Express 3 creates continuous strips of air pillows that are ideal for all protective packing applications. Weighing in at just 35 pounds, this compact, all-electric system features operator-friendly controls and virtually maintenance-free operation. Simply plug the unit in, load the air pillow material, and start packing.

The AirPouch Express 3 also offers a wide variety of accessories and integrated system configurations for optimum productivity in each unique application. Basic accessories can be added to the Express 3 to create a
simple, stand-alone packing station, or the system can be integrated into

existing workstations for highproductivity, multi-user order fulfillment operations. 

New! The Express 3 is the first pre-formed pillow system to offer knifeless operation, eliminating the primary wear item found on every other machine in its class. Instead, AirPouch air pillows use a patent-pending perforation that automatically separates for filling, then re-seals as it passes through the machine – without compromising speed or seal integrity. AirPouch pillows also feature our exclusive EZ-Tear™ Perforations that are preferred for their easy handling and effortless pillow separation. AirPouch void-fill material feeds from a high-yield box, reducing changeovers and operator lifting. Material storage space is minimal.

These pillows offer superior seals and puncture resistance for durability and reliable air retention. Air pillows offer the convenience and cleanliness not found in other void-fill products, such as EPS peanuts or paper. Protected products are easily identified inside the shipping carton,
reducing waste and increasing customer satisfaction.

System-matched for optimum performance on the Express 3 system, AirPouch void-fill air pillows are available in a range of lengths, widths and mil gauges to suit any void-fill application requirement.
