Comunetti CRS 23V

• Used for extending the shelf life of food products by removing air from packaging.
• Commonly employed in the packaging of coffee, nuts, and other dry goods to preserve freshness.
• Utilised for sealing pre-formed bags, often with options for vacuum or modified atmosphere packaging.
• Applicable in various food processing sectors, including bakeries, butchers, and ready-meal producers.

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, throughput can vary significantly, often handling several hundred packs per hour depending on product and bag size.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly operate on a 3-phase industrial power supply, typically 400V.

Footprint

Vacuum packaging machines like the CRS 23V typically require a moderate floor space, suitable for integration into existing production lines.

Packaging materials

Designed to work with a range of pre-formed vacuum pouches and bags, commonly made from multi-layer barrier films.

Sealing type

Features a heat sealing mechanism, typically impulse or constant heat, for secure bag closure.

Gas flushing capability

Many vacuum packaging units, including this model, can be configured for inert gas injection (MAP) as an alternative to vacuum.

• What is the primary benefit of vacuum packaging?

  Vacuum packaging significantly extends product shelf life by removing oxygen, which inhibits the growth of aerobic bacteria and reduces oxidation.

• Can this machine handle different bag sizes?

• What maintenance is typically required for a vacuum packaging machine?

• Is inert gas injection (MAP) a common feature?

• What kind of products are best suited for this type of vacuum packer?

Vacuum packaging equipment holds a solid reputation in food processing for extending shelf life and maintaining product quality. Buyers typically prioritize seal consistency, chamber durability, and ease of operation when selecting used models. Industry sentiment favours machines with reliable vacuum pump performance and straightforward maintenance access. Common strengths include cost savings over new equipment, proven track records from established manufacturers, and compatibility with various packaging materials. Prospective buyers should inspect sealing bars, vacuum gauges, and prior service history carefully.
