- Typical throughput
- For this class of inline sealer, throughput can typically range from 60 to over 120 packs per minute, depending on tray size and film type.
- Power supply
- Units of this type commonly require a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, with varying power consumption based on heaters and motor load.
- Air supply
- Pneumatic systems are commonly used for various functions, requiring a clean, dry compressed air supply, typically 6-8 bar.
- Film compatibility
- Inline sealers are typically compatible with a range of heat-sealable films, including PET, PP, and aluminium laminates, suitable for various barrier requirements.
- Footprint
- An inline sealing machine, particularly with integrated printing, typically requires a significant linear footprint within a production line.
- Tooling changeover
- Units of this type are commonly designed for relatively quick tooling changeovers to accommodate different tray sizes, often assisted by dedicated trolleys.
