Record Scorpion E

• Packaging individual food items such as confectionery, bakery products, and snacks.
• Wrapping non-food items like medical devices, small hardware, and consumer goods.
• Creating hermetically sealed packages for extended shelf life.
• High-speed primary packaging in automated production lines.

Typical throughput

For this class of equipment, output commonly ranges from 50 to 250 packages per minute, dependent on product size and film type.

Power supply

Units of this type typically require a 3-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz.

Film materials

Suitable for a variety of heat-sealable films, including BOPP, laminates, and co-extruded films.

Sealing mechanism

This model features double jaws, which typically facilitate faster sealing cycles and can improve seal integrity.

Product dimensions

The maximum product dimensions are variable; buyers should contact the seller for specific capabilities of this unit.

Footprint

Form-fill-seal machines typically require a significant floor area, often several metres in length, plus space for access and maintenance.

Control system

Modern units commonly feature PLC control with HMI for setting parameters and diagnostics.

• What is a Form-Fill-Seal (FFS) machine?

  An FFS machine forms a package from a roll of film, fills it with product, and then seals it. This specific model is a flow wrapper, creating a pillow-pack style bag.

• What does 'output dependent on product' mean?

Form-fill-seal machines hold strong reputations in food packaging for reliability and consistent output. Buyers typically prioritise machines with clear maintenance histories and verified production specifications. Key strengths include versatility across film types and product formats, alongside relatively straightforward operation. When purchasing used units, inspectors should examine seal quality consistency, film tracking accuracy, and the condition of heating elements. Machines from established manufacturers generally command buyer confidence. Downtime for repairs is a common concern, so availability of spare parts and technical support merits careful consideration before acquisition.
