The Revolution is an efficient single-lane tray sealer, which features PA’s electric Powerdrive technology. Interpolated multi-axis robotic motion ensures a continuous flow of trays through the machine from infeed to outfeed. Throughputs of up to 150 packs a minute are possible.
The machine’s seal force has been increased by 300% compared with pneumatic systems, however the novel technology allows the tool lift mechanism to be deactivated during the seal process, which significantly reduces energy use.
“The continuous flow of product allows us to run more effectively; the simple loading and unloading of tooling and films is very quick, reducing further downtime,” says Paul Gardner, Valefresh’s production manager. “The hygienic nature and access design of the machine helps us with the clean downs and operator maintenance.”
