Abstract: A film wrapper packaging machine with a main housing, a film roll holder, a film roll, a heated film cutting rod, a film warming housing, a rod temperature sensor, a film warming housing temperature sensor, a film warming heater assembly, a digital LED readout, a rod temperature control setting button, a film warming housing temperature control setting button, a plurality of LED indicator lights, a micro processor and associate digital control circuitry. The microprocessor and digital controls help maintain consistent even temperature of the cutting rod and the film worming housing. The heating element of the cutting rod is protected by a rigid exterior housing that reduces the chance of breakage of the heating element.
