Customer requirements:
With our CIRUS impulse sealing system integrated into their packaging process, our customer was able to quickly and easily increase the output of their existing vertical form, fill and seal machine (VFFS).
Frozen food is the main area of activity of this customer. Their products are packaged using a vertical form, fill and seal machine which they have been using successfully for several years. A higher level of performance was now required. However, the previous sealing process (which relied on continuous heating) made such an increase impossible. In search of a solution, the customer discovered our impulse sealing process.
Our solution:
Our CIRUS impulse sealing system is ideally suited to form, fill and seal machines such as those used by our customer. The system allows the highest heating and cooling rates to be achieved, resulting in the shortest possible processing times. We configured an entire film sealing system from standard components that operate all common interfaces for process automation. Therefore, our system could be easily integrated into their packaging process.
Thanks to CIRUS, our customer was able to significantly speed up the packaging and sealing process – with their existing packaging machine. The customer also gained flexibility in terms of materials and formats, since the machine parameters can be changed quickly and different film formats can be sealed without changing tools. Most importantly, CIRUS allows our customer to guarantee sealing of the highest quality.
Customer advantages:
✓ More rapid packaging and sealing process.
✓ Flexible in terms of materials and formats, since the machine parameters can be changed quickly and different film formats can be sealed without changing tools.
✓Highest quality: clean, smooth and reproducible seam without irregularities.
✓ Fast changeover, due to standard components.
✓ No new machine purchase.
