A high throughput modular linear traysealing system with the flexibility to be incorporated into automated turnkey production lines offering up to 160 pack/min throughout speeds has been launched by heatsealing equipment supplier Proseal.
Targeted strongly at the food industry, the Proseal AP60 has been designed to run in conjunction with auxiliary equipment such as tray de-nesters, fillers, multihead weighers and labellers. Its modular construction allows customers to specify conveyor length, width and tray pitch to accommodate their tray de-nesting and filling requirements for fully integrated control of the entire operation.
"Free flow" gas flush can be specified for extended shelf life products, while other options include pre-printed film, film coding and printing and automatic clip-on lid overcapping.
The "simple, accurate" film feed system "eliminates confusing film loading paths and reduces downtime during reel changes", while precise temperature and seal pressure reportedly ensure perfect seal quality.
