What is Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP)?

MAP involves altering the composition of the air inside the package to extend the shelf life of perishable food products. This unit's gas mixer facilitates this process.

Is this unit suitable for different tray sizes?

Tray sealers typically require change parts or tooling for different tray dimensions. Buyers should confirm the included tooling and availability of additional sizes with the seller.

What kind of film does it use?

It will use a suitable lidding film designed for heat sealing to the specific tray material. The film type must be compatible with MAP if that function is used.

What maintenance is typically required?

Routine maintenance commonly involves cleaning, checking seals and heating elements, and ensuring pneumatic components are functioning correctly. Specific schedules will be in the manufacturer's manual.

Does it require a compressed air supply?

Yes, tray sealers of this type commonly utilise pneumatic components for tray movement and sealing pressure, requiring a clean, dry compressed air supply.
