AP60

[ products ] - [ the range ] - [ AP60 ]

a linear conveyor heat-sealing system capable of up to 160 packs per minute

A high throughput modular, linear heat-sealing system, designed to run in conjunction with auxiliary equipment such as tray de-nesters, fillers, multihead weighers and labellers, combining into a stand-alone, fully automatic production line.

With throughput speeds of up to 160 packs per minute, the modular design of the AP60 gives the flexibility required by food producers looking for a fully automated turnkey production line. The customer can specify the length and width of the indexing conveyor to accommodate their tray de-nesting and filling requirements.

Optional 'free flow' gas flush available for extended shelf life.

materials the AP60 has the ability to heat-seal and perimeter trim (inboard trimming option available) film lids on to CPET, Polypropylene, PVC, Styrene, Board and Foil and many other types of containers.
