'World first' in heat sealing

Packaging Automation (PA) is claiming a "world first" and major technology breakthrough in its all-electric heat sealing range.

Incorporating PA's E-Seal technology, the Eclipse R and the new SL4 tray sealers are fully electrical and operate without using any compressed air. The rotary table Eclipse R and the Eclipse SL4 single lane tray sealer follow hard on the heels of the introduction of PA's Eclipse TL6 high-speed twin lane tray sealer.

E-Seal enables food firms to reduce their carbon footprint while reducing running costs by eliminating "inefficient and wasteful pneumatic systems".

The table automatically indexes and incorporates a novel locating system designed to reduce repetitive strain injuries.

The Eclipse SL4 tray sealer is claimed to reduce end user running costs by up to 90%. It can seal up to 75 packs a minute and has a small footprint machine. It also requires no compressed air.
