Line integration

Product handover, conveyor height, product spacing and guarding must be checked before the sealer and tunnel are finalised.

  • Integrate with conveyors and packing lines
  • Choose L sealer or sleeve sealer by pack format
  • Review utilities and access
  • Plan for future pack changes

Choosing the sealer

L sealers suit enclosed presentation packs. Sleeve sealers suit grouped bundles and trays. Chamber sealers suit smaller manual production cells.

Future-proofing

Consider future pack sizes, higher output, extra inspection, coding or labelling and the space needed for maintenance.
