Le SHX 800 est un film de 25 microns qui possède de bonnes qualités optiques - brillance et transparence - et une rigidité inhérente qui lui permet de maintenir la bonne consistance nécessaire aux produits de confiserie à emballage par torsion. Ce film, qui se compose d'une formule de base unique, peut être mis en œuvre sur une large gamme de machines d'emballage par torsion exploitées actuellement. De plus, un traitement de décharge par effet de couronne, sur un de ses côtés, lui permet d'être imprimé. 1, record 1, French, - emballage%20par%20torsion

Guipage. L'opération de guipage consiste à recouvrir un fil auquel on a donné le nom d'«âme» par un fil ou filé de toute sorte, l'enrobant. Ce recouvrement peut être effectué de deux façons : - par une succession de couches de fil enroulées en spirales autour d'un fil d'âme; - par une succession de mailles formées par un fil ou un filé, empilées les unes sur les autres à l'intérieur desquelles se place le fil d'âme. [...] On peut différencier deux types de fils [...] : a) le fil en âme, b) la fibre en âme. 2, record 2, French, - %C3%A2me
